Homesteading on a Blackberry Hilltop
January 2, 2021 Last night, we had eight inches of snow. It was a soft powder snow, the kind that squeaks when you walk on it. It was beautiful and to cold for me to want to go out, so no pictures of the white New Year’s Day. The temperature started warming up (18 degrees) […]

For those of you who have heard about the wildfire in Boulder County, we are far away from that fire and safe. Yesterday evening, we could see the smoke rising into the sky in the north.

Read More A Concussion, Really?November 19, 2021 I wanted to provide an update on Bruce’s experience with the low FODMAP diet. This is not a diet to lose weight, but to tame lower GI distress. Bruce has been on the low FODMAP diet since September of 2020. First, we limited the foods that Bruce ate to only low FODMAP […]
Read More Update on Low FODMAP DietSeptember 10, 2021 Today is National Stand Up to Cancer Day, sponsored by the organization, Stand Up to Cancer.
