New year, who dis?

(I cannot tell a lie - I stole that title from Carson Ellis's substack published one year ago yesterday. It still makes me laugh.)

Last year was a doozy and I'm still working on regaining focus, patience, and hope. To help with this process, I've decided to work on creative endeavors, one of which is this long-neglected blog. I'm not sure I will have marvelously interesting things to say most of the time... but that's never stopped me before. 

I've also decided to revive ye olde quarterly goals. So! First quarter 2026, here we go:

• Publish something here 3 times/week.
• Finish every book club book.
• Do something with the backlog of tomatoes in our freezer.
• Anything on The List. (Remember The List?)

Wishing you a less doozy-filled 2026!
