    Cleaning out the Potting Shed

    ByMary Crozier April 14, 2020April 14, 2020

    What started out as cleaning the windows to the well tower, turned into a full day of cleaning out the potting shed. The potting shed occupies the first level of the well tower. If you are new to the blog, the well tower is just that, it houses the well, which we re-activated when we…

    My Easter Table

    ByMary Crozier April 11, 2020March 27, 2023

    I know many of us are having smaller Easter dinner celebrations this year. However, albeit cozy, it is important to make it special for several reasons.

    Sourdough Starter Basics

    ByMary Crozier April 4, 2020April 4, 2020

    Last October, I visited my son in Washington, D.C. His roommate is quite the baker and he generously shared some sourdough starter with me. I really didn’t know anything about this white, gooey substance, but I carefully carried it back in my suitcase to Phoenix. I was familiar with making bread from commercial yeast, but…
