Being able to support others to be able to use the skills they have feels good. BUT….i also have a toxic dose of DIY running through my veins. Frequently I have to talk myself off the ledge, reminding myself that supporting someone else to do a job 10 times more efficiently and with more skill than me is better, freeing my time up to do the things I am good at. <br/>Occasionally though, the DIY makes sense. Occasionally I do have the tools, if not the skill, and though I may have to bumble through, it’s a bumbling worth doing. <br/>I’m currently adding “food photographer” to my list of jobs. I don’t particularly care for this work. I much prefer telling stories through my photos. However, I’m saving a lot of money photographing my cookbook myself and I do like the fact that it makes it more personal. <br/>Anyway, here’s to learning new skills, and for knowing when not to. <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/56004ccf5987f4a9a103706edd01c603b8d3c859ecb36a9361eaac88994287eb.jpg"> <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/5a48417de2d0094523e6bd8c202efa76167cfe38c208beaebfebfce7fd2b0245.jpg"> 2025-08-25T20:47:13Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfxqnv6yq34n8wm25jx5g9e8e69e8q92q2kn9vfz8d79aeacgg7rczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtghc4c4k This is what seasonal eating looks like in South Carolina summer.

This space was primarily a cellar but during the period of the revolutionary war, while the British held Charleston, an estimated 6k people were held (not all at once) in medieval conditions in this space. Men, women, and children, shackled and kept on stale bread and sickly water. With rats in the straw which was their only bed and riddled by mosquitos that came in through the small barred windows. Countless people died here, but few records were kept. They were imprisoned for their treason to the crown. <br/>Additionally, as there isn’t much natural stone in coastal Charleston, the majority of the city is built with bricks which were, of course, hand packed by enslaved people of the surrounding plantations. If you look closely in places like the dungeon, which have been protected from the erosion of rain, you can find thumbprints in a lot of the bricks. <br/>All of this took place 200-300 years ago. All of this is recent history. <br/>I’m currently homeschooling my sons (ages 13,12, &amp; 10) and in teaching them history, I’m also teaching them to keep their eyes open to current events that will still be studied and talked about 300 years from now. Can you imagine what will be written and told about the time we’ve lived in, and the insanity people just accept as normal? I expect it will be just as hard to wrap our heads around as these things, which many people accepted as normal back then. <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/002266400775f4586869f6147b57e2d8ba5b991a091ac474540ddabdf83dbed8.jpg"> 2025-08-20T12:50:42Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqszy324rj8vwmt2gqwhfdmvck26rd3chprw7glr9wpdsgue5n56e2qzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg4xm8d8 👏👏👏<blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/nevent1qqsv64kd4vuc7djrth7dcmjyq4mnexr6kzqt0fr6qf8yd8c303wrr7q5h6yhy" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">nevent1q…6yhy</a></span> </div> <br/><br/><br/><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/56fa7b16e89e422553eabd1799723fcfe9672dd04cb556bba859c9fb358eac9d.jpg"> </blockquote> 2025-08-20T12:37:54Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvv4hrsfcye0t32lpdq88scv3epw20xlgz44uaux08p8n7dughdfczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgf87t0e In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsz5akxqhl4fw8hltnev9py4tk065lekj4f9vfsqaxn2shczk8zvdgpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqaz4wsr'>nevent1q…4wsr</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Congratulations!!! 2025-08-20T12:36:52Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqst8dn3yp294rpswndwekgjk3vs3mtrws74rfwwt67h20ammwqlt5qzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgx7hj6p In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0pryhj44yf2ntlwtra8f9se8w98lrzem3y5tzk2dygc7a9jnyxrq68f4zk'>nevent1q…f4zk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>You can freeze the hide and cure it later but it isn’t terribly difficult. 2025-08-20T12:32:53Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvvrsyewcfvkm5hjd58gdw9kf7rm0luz96wz4kpnnd7sws2pdkryqzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg20nk36 Church and Union in Charleston, SC. <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/c469469a46a37a964ed1382b73134ecceae050eb73cb7884e4751c2789e802df.jpg"> <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/4730bd95b20fc7b4dcf99ffbffd2316cbcd5cd096faf3547ecc7566ea30c7e05.jpg"> <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/ccb3750edb30a18926d09e943deb2c96aea58a69fc9556a10fcd98e0b7989d0b.jpg"> 2025-08-19T02:00:39Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrl4rtg0ewjdrg2j5vsm9c43v89j2gykvuncmsvhtkp4g4gtx98xczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg8z8fru Brought my boys down to Charleston for a little homeschool history trip.

The garden is dwindling and I’m realizing how much I love August. For years, I lamented the end of summer but these recent years, it’s come like blessed relief. Tearing out the tomato plants and turning under the patch where the potatoes grew feels like permission to rest. <br/>I love the season of the garden where the roots grow, where the evenings are chilly and there is so war to be waged on pests. I do miss the dahlias though, so now I’ll just appreciate every offering they make as if it might be their last. #grownostr #gardenstr <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/1f1d9a243601dd4d7739cedbaa7366a98624d49758426b215599c7acb3809a20.jpg"> 2025-08-12T12:22:41Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxlt62agaztc3q93n7h7lldwff8tf5te7pfft46ugcxyj6th3zlgczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgx30mpq Grilled marinated chicken thighs, herby new potatoes, roasted feta with fresh herbs.

Multiple injuries and illnesses in our household meant we met our limit at a lower capacity than usual. Prioritizing became necessary, and I had to choose what from my to-do list would be left undone.<br/>Before I began picking things back up, I took the opportunity to assess everything in my life that I give my energy to. There’s nothing like a forced slowdown to show you just how fast you were moving in the first place.<br/><br/>The pace of this culture is inhuman. It is not cohesive with healthy humanity. That is why people keep laying their most basic needs on the altar of it.<br/>They give up sleep, neglect the care of their bodies, set aside the needs of their relationships, and trade them for what?<br/>This culture hands them money, earned in a rigged system that steadily robs the value from our days and hours.<br/><br/>I am making space for margin. Time to drink coffee slowly. Time to go for a walk after dinner and leave the laptop closed. Time to stop seeing every empty block on the calendar as a space where I should be working harder.<br/><br/>I am choosing margin. I am quitting the things that do not matter, so I can carry the things that do.<br/>This podcast is one of them.<br/>New episodes coming soon.<br/><br/><a href="https://fountain.fm/show/M1s4EKnaRZne2MBRtq6A">https://fountain.fm/show/M1s4EKnaRZne2MBRtq6A</a><br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/8d08f70f165a649c526cfcbe12b05f3f0a3bf1acc6a1c30a1de5770277d79bbf.jpg"> 2025-08-06T01:21:11Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqspf70gfupysqxjkd3laphcdz26j2aw354hzj00k0rhppg7tfzvhxqzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg63xu3h In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvcllrhshf769eaxxjw5d0a8ct8vfgvdl5h6n0va0wg7zkcmajwfqxwg70z'>nevent1q…g70z</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yes please 👏👏👏 2025-08-04T14:17:38Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqswlwhd8mj9m36m8xgcl5zgxlk0yw3qwalq8qsfkp9kkqftghtfesgzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg2ggsfd Came to the orchard to pick pears and found a bonus shirt full of the biggest, fattest figs I’ve ever had. #gonnabeagooddaytater #growfood<br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/81184653179cb4868f748720053f155e8200bf428323e790d84bebcb3ff85f48.jpg"> 2025-08-04T14:00:13Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsd9yvlwljdvmhmmykx4c52r8t8t6t059yuwqg2r32z6rerrc0dl9szyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgmjtwft In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspxm3720p0rau64r0ye8df03l8zqk4mj39nccdgrxfxqaf8rw74wspz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcsmvq4t'>nevent1q…vq4t</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>And thank you!!! ♥️ 2025-08-01T16:49:38Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrpj5padnwwku89dvpwpluzfvqsusumeuhcu22p3ywymqxdcgxfkczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgn3g5vm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspxm3720p0rau64r0ye8df03l8zqk4mj39nccdgrxfxqaf8rw74wspz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wcsmvq4t'>nevent1q…vq4t</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It’s currently slated for the end of summer 2026! 2025-08-01T16:49:25Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsyxfy00g3z6pw9mjwq4na9ug5qym8ywfrtwwmehedff03vd907vkczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg27we7v Sadly, we are coming to the end of the tomato onslaught.

Next stop, canning season. <br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/IGUT.jpg"> 2024-05-13T20:49:48Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0kezfg8xwxu08nnq48k4m2yj7cuxpy9rqu3637awhyzjfwv0a3pszyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgcdct06 Enjoying things like pickled beets makes me feel like a real adult. <br/>Finding them beautiful makes me feel like a real artist. <br/>Growing it myself makes me feel like a real gardener. <br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/IFho.jpg"> 2024-05-11T16:08:04Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqszcm03qh0wxwnvh4jjwh6w7kzfv9fwl5cmlwulpnc9x73652x47ngzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg4ax7e8 The aurora borealis shone brilliantly over South Carolina last night. Though I was wondering how northern lights could have gotten so terribly misplaced, I did enjoy that they came south for a visit. <br/><br/>(This photo was taken by a friend a few miles from my home. My view was hindered by our pines.)<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/IFfK.jpg"> 2024-05-11T13:21:24Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsyuaava9w5783u3xtce57s4rm0jfcdkt3cf3ycyvdlg76c9juc5nczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgcn6xcs In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsywutxrm0yd9jwuwp6ewcqsd5yhr52pd36hdlam6khc3dklr5aysgpz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wca8traa'>nevent1q…traa</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>If you set it up, bait it with some peanut butter and turn it on, they will lick it and then steer clear 2024-05-10T21:37:07Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvyxcudzhymxuuwq8unztug6asvaazjtr6kd4dk6nrp3ypjuapuwczyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg3jtlj7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvnekk8mdd0f5mdps2rr8edsxyq8mr6e04sm9rmvzkjwfz4ptu7scpr3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujummjv9hxwefdvde82umg9e3k7mggf546x'>nevent1q…546x</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Such a fierce little cutie! 2024-05-10T19:30:13Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxpj3ky5ah3g6d6yfjyzztrmwlz6r78r9yytw6l5xg2tu6nkrrm9qzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgpsrsxm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq849ux39p57sst53qlpezxemt0sfwdwj67mx30zw8nvdevtsexyspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgperq3t'>nevent1q…rq3t</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Lovely view 😍 2024-05-10T18:42:36Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0t45lev67zxavsv9a9d78upa7mhzkz0ht2s77cvrdf5p303mx4qqzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtg2983gr Lavender strawberry jam. 😘<br/> <img src="https://m.primal.net/IFRN.jpg"> 2024-05-10T18:36:40Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsggknpgxawrpsfqc685anmgj89hq4xlnjqyjqmdxk9rt27795rtkgzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgh9m2l0 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv9fmg6qgwc4sqvyclfm0c87z6h6u8m48uhc3fz6vmenn7qqcz7lsprfmhxue69uhhg6r9vehhyetnwshxummnw3erztnrdaks652hh2'>nevent1q…2hh2</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The typos in my response are silly given the context. 😂 Don’t worry, the books had editors. 2024-05-10T11:45:27Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs9qamjdl670na7jhcwq0nm6qysvn9j7u4ta6a8keptjewv064vuxgzyz3erxwvkhkf9vwdq3al8hr73y37memf6xjue3ra27v39u84e0dtgmfjv6w In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsv9fmg6qgwc4sqvyclfm0c87z6h6u8m48uhc3fz6vmenn7qqcz7lsprfmhxue69uhhg6r9vehhyetnwshxummnw3erztnrdaks652hh2'>nevent1q…2hh2</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I am.
