It's the Little Reminders

It’s the little things that make a difference in each day.  Saturday, this came by blowing off responsibility at home to enjoy the day visiting friends not seen in nearly a year and laughing with my husband, and just in general remembering that it is okay to not work once in a while.  It isn’t that we don’t spend time together – just that we don’t get to spend much time together just playing.  Those are moments that are so precious and dear!

To top it all off, last night my dear husband was inspired with the cheeses. In addition to candied habanero chevre, and our basil pesto with pinenuts and sundried tomatoes chevre, he came up with a raspberry chipotle chevre that is intriguing with it’s sweet and smokey flavor.  Mmm!!   I

Yes - little things, but the happy impact is huge!

  1. I'm so glad you found some time for fun. I think your farm is fun for you, but everyone needs a little getaway once in a while. The cheese sounds so interesting. Your usband must be very adventurous.
