Each season brings its own medicine. Under snow and ice flow clarity and insight gained by retreat and hibernation. I'll never wish weather cycles away. In the words of @florence "and what if one day there is no such thing as snow" #farmlife #florenceandthemachine #southlondonforever #writersofinstagramRecent reads (and a shot of my fellow book worm). I'm late on Educated but it blew my mind. Finished this memoir that reads like a novel in 2 days and it left me thinking about the psychology of families, women's place in history and society, the nature of reality and how we free ourselves.

And if you have family members who get up before you to make cross country tracks, what kind of maniacs are you living with? #farmlife #letitsnow #goodgearmatters #californianativeI didn't think I could esteem her more highly, but I just finished this and now I do.
