homesteading in ohio
sometimes being settled is a good thing. spending 2016 on the move was a great thing. spending 78.5% of 2017 in a constant state of flux was a not-so-great thing. so, this thanksgiving, being settled in our own place feels kinda great. gluten free all the things (except those darn crescent rolls. […]
It’s hot. Summer is hot, proven by my social media feed filled with people posting photos of their car thermometers or screenshots of their weather apps. (do you remember winter….and the ice and snow? yeah, me too.) It’s that wake up hot, …go to bed hot, kind of hot. If you’re like me and you […]
(finally) looking back, and realizing that we have moved six times in the past year helps me understand why lately I just feel like sitting on the bed zoning out to back episodes of shows like “keeping up with the kardashians” and “brooklyn nine nine”. mindless brain numbing occupiers of my time. but last […]
I’ve been benefiting greatly from the use of essential oils lately, and sharing them with my friends and family to help them has become one of the best benefits. from helping my little nephew find a solution to his tummy aches, to the awesome sight of my brother in law inhaling peppermint oil for the […]

We’ve been lucky so far this year in Ohio with the weather, but this week we got hit with some f-f-f-freezing cold. So, what’s a good Cleveland girl to do? Go to the beach, of course. I wasn’t going to pass up the sunny day, even though it was only 14 degrees out, to […]
We started a new diet around here this week, and a big part of it is giving up sugar. If you’ve ever done this, then you know it is not easy. Another aspect of the new plan is no grains, no dairy. This part; not so tough. Except I do like a little bread with my […]
I’ve been away for a while, sorry about that…but I’ve been under the weather. I have another genetic condition, hemochromatosis, and due to some oversights by people who should have been more careful I ended up very exhausted for the past six weeks. But, I’m slowly feeling better…and better means baking! Fall always brings pumpkin […]
It used to be when I was turning the corner of recovering from something, be it a migraine, or a bout of the flu, or a bad personal experience, I knew I was getting better when I would have a craving for one thing. Spaghetti and meat sauce from a certain local Italian eatery. […]
This weekend started out like any other, no real fun plans; until I remembered that within walking distance of our new apartment was the annual city carnival. Funnel cakes! (no!) Beer tent! (no!) Corn Dogs! (no!) But we could ride the ferris wheel…eat kettle corn and have some fresh lemonade, all of which we did. After […]
