Greetings from the front lines of Portland, where we continue to wage war on Kentucky Bluegrass. Block by block instituting xeriscaping, micro farms, and pollinator habitats. Our weapons of choice = rototillers and native seeds

Happy Easter to those who celebrate. Grateful for a progressive faith community this morning and a pastor speaking to the meaning of a disappeared body and the associated fear and grief in this moment. He reminded us all we are called to not look away and not be silent

There’s about 20 versions of this to capture what’s happening, but lots of people dont know what’s going on. Thinking about making a new one of these each week. Each with a clear thematic message and 5 things max

When we got married, we decided that Swedish style Christmas Eve would be our new fam tradition.
Multi-European julafton smörgåsbord table tonight. Skipped the traditional meatballs, cold meats course was an Italian style antipasto, bread was the Swiss side of the family’s enriched braided loaf.
