Goodnight friends! Another cold and wind-whipped day, and without the shivery excitement of harsh, scraped clean blue skies, replaced by the unpromising voluminous awe of stacked grim strata and cloudy whirlpools battering against and through each other. New buds emerge from their strange scaly sheathes, undaunted by quivering branches. On with the slow, indefatigable work of growing.

A slightly restless mood came over me this afternoon as I waited around glancing at the sky outside, vainly hoping for a break in the clouds. I didn’t quite have the energy to try my hand at baking again but I did inexpertly make some more roast veggies, which is a fun process even if it eats up far more of the day’s energy than I can hope to recoup by eating them.

May we find opportuinites for creativity and discovery all around us today!
