Blog a la Cart

Apparently I didn’t take any photos this week save this one image of Sunny’s lovely blueberry eyes.

It was a weird week. A wonderful one on the blog, with a well-received style post, some thoughtful discussion on a women’s right to choose, a hilarious Twitter round up, and a great dialogue about Facebook. And yet, IRL I had an experience that really changed my perception of some people. It’s always challenging to have one’s world view disrupted, and I’ve been struggling with that over the past 48 hours.

Tomorrow, James leaves for a conference in Portland, Maine, so until Wednesday, I’ll be rocking life as the only “responsible” adult on the farm. If posting is light, you can assume it’s because the chickens have staged a coup and are holding me and the girls hostage.

I will say that I have so enjoyed all of the comments and emails that were generated by this week’s posts. I cannot properly describe the joy I feel every time one of you amazingly thoughtful people reaches out and responds to something that I’ve put out into the world. I want to produce content that inspires you to respond more and more, as it is the most fulfilling element to this space. And I want you to know how very much it means to me whenever you do choose to reach out. So please, if you feel so moved, talk back. I love it. Love love love it.
