an early weekend…

thank you all for your sweet comments on my last entry. we have been able to do quite a bit of cooking with our bounty of farmer’s market produce. using some carrots & kale, i made a delicious autumn soup, & luke used all of that beautiful cauliflower in one of our favorite autumn recipes- red lentil coconut curry.

& as for the weekend, it is starting early!
my mom arrives tonight & will be here until sunday afternoon. we plan to go to an informational expo about small farming, visit some local stores in columbia, bake an apple bundt cake, catch a good movie or two at the theater, munch on an autumn salad with lots of pear, & most importantly- rest & enjoy eachother’s company.
i’ve missed her so much these last few months. i feel like our relationship has really changed & strengthened since i have gotten married. i am so thankful for her & really look forward to the time we will spend.
so, i am taking a break from the internet world to spend more time with my mom. i’ll be back on monday with some talk about christmas & the holiday season!
& as always- i will be writing over {here} on sunday with luke!
