(when I’m not chasing away badgers)
- teasing my witty (and too-trusting) husband,
- twirling my three-year-old sweetie baby,
- retiring to my room with a weighty, pretentious piece of fiction,
- treating my friends to triple chocolate chunk brownies,
- throwing any type of party,
- talking about the book I’m reading (not necessarily finishing)
- trouping across town to get the best bowl of soup,
- telling the story that AVA told me this morning,
- twisting peonies, anenomes, and ranuculus into bundles of beauty,
- typing in alliteration on my laptop, and
- trusting in a Savior that holds me in the palm of his hand.

Yummy! Triple chocolate chunk brownies are the BEST! They’re also one of my staples when I host parties!

i love reading your blog!!! i know i’m a cheese ball, but it’s true. and i love talking about the book i’m reading, too. and when i’m reading a good (fiction) book, it takes precedence over all else. are you in a book club? if not, let’s be a book club one time and peruse a piece of pretentious prose.
Hi Rachel
I am enjoying your heartfelt blog and wondering if I could link it to Just a Cloud Away “Love Talk” blog??
I love having parties too!!
Peace Love and Hugs from Above
