It’s good to be back, Amanda. Glad that your inspiring posts haven’t abated–Hafiz is such a gift of a new author, thank you for sharing.

You two will have to come visit Miami and see the cottage; until then, I will keep lengthening the kthread skein (adore this metaphor) and, I hope, have more words soon about this place and these foodpaths…

It’s wonderful to hear your voice again, as it were :) What is this magical cottage?! Sounds (and looks) divine. I can empathize with how much you miss fresh produce but know that you will find a way to fill the void. I feel like your life is like this ball of colorful yarn and you are always reaching out for new experiences to weave into the mix – it’s a lot of fun to watch you weave… :)

Deal. That gives Miami some time for prepare for your fabulousness. And bourbon brownies. Let’s keep talking about New Orleans too—

That’s a perfect firework food, Bud. I really like that they don’t have seeds.

And to think that my friends and I found them in the wild at a Charlottesville park too—here’s to making wineberries a traditional part of 4th celebrations—

We experienced our first wineberries on July Fourth with a Rappahannock County crowd gathered for the fireworks outside Sperryville. Part red raspberry, part mulberry.

Thanks, Dave. Like your wonderful Friday hehs, I’m trying to carve out a format that fits where kthread is now.

And, I’m definitely flying up for that next Rogue Apron event with you and the East Atlanta cool kids—way to be in that underground loop—

I’m a new enough kthread fan that this is one of the first times I’ve seen you use this format. I like it very much.

And it’s not summer without picnics with you, D. Glad you organized us and thank you for introducing me to a new Charlottesville park.

Great to see you this weekend, and I look forward to listening to your radio show in coming weeks and months (1-3 am on WTJU early Saturday mornings, everyone).

David has promised to visit the magic cottage in the fall, and I hope you will too after the California adventure with Ben—

Ah, it’s simply not summer without gorgeous pictures from your forays to the market, K! Fascinating post, and I’m eager to hear more about interconnections between food and community.

Thanks, David. It was a weekend of tempting food.

I’m happy with the windmill image on the bookcases, and the guitar is easy to pull out of its case there—how the guitar found me is for another post. This is a cottage that should be filled with music…

This is one of those blogs I must remember to never read on an empty stomach.

The windmill photograph found its perfect place. As did the guitar. I didn’t realize you played.
