Melissa

Peach, Lavender and Ginger Oxymel

September 11, 2017

It rained, it finally rained! After what has been a very hot and dry summer, we finally had some rain over the weekend and it felt good, really good. The smell and sound of the rain and freshness of the air was so comforting and calming. While we are back to sunshine today, I can certainly feel fall creeping in. The days are noticeably shorter, the morning air is cooler and the light is changing. My wee summer garden is also slowing down in its production. Late summer is the time of year where I really feel the call to squirrel away bits of summer to enjoy on those dark, wet and rainy days that are characteristic of fall on the west coast.

Rituals of Self Care with Natalie Rousseau of Living Yoga

While Natalie’s main role in the weekend was to help facilitate the workshop and lead the yoga, I knew that she had an interesting story around food and plants that I was curious to know more about.

Peach, Corn and Halloumi Salad with Lime Jalapeno Dressing

August 8, 2017

We are fully into summer and making our way over into late summer already. Summer is so fleeting. While I love this season and its sun soaked days and bounty of produce, it often feels a little frantic. Like there is so much to fit into such a short amount of time and squeeze out of every day. As someone who loves to do it all, I am doing my best to slow things down by taking time to just enjoy each day as it comes and take quiet moments in the garden and nature and to spend time with friends and family with feet in the sand. I am soaking up the beauty and warmth and trying and tuck some of it away (in my mind and freezer) to draw upon in the cold, dark months of winter.
