By: Jennifer Richardson Holt It’s a dreary grey day outside. The light rain is falling in drops so tiny they’re nearly invisible. In fact, I wasn’t even aware it was raining until I opened the door to the back patio and heard what I thought was wind in the trees. After noticing their complete lackContinue reading “Second Breakfasts and Other Small Comforts 12/7/2025”

The Welcome Glow 11/9/2025
By: Jennifer Richardson Holt This is something of a disclaimer. Perhaps that isn’t the right word—maybe explanation would be more appropriate. You see, I caught a fair amount of flack this past weekend, and it wasn’t the first time either. It wasn’t particularly traumatizing, as I’ve heard the fuss before. I will say that thisContinue reading “The Welcome Glow 11/9/2025”
The More the Merrier 6/8/2025

And trust me, I do enjoy a good sleep and rising early to get to the grind of the day is not my idea of a fun time. I shocked myself at my elevated mood.

We’ve had things happen that had been long planned and then there were other bits that popped up and nobody sawContinue reading “Fun, Frolic and Fear 6/9/2024”
Big Plans 3/3/2024
By : Jennifer Richardson Holt I have just noticed that driving down the street I live on, the road is littered with fallen jasmine blooms. I find it so difficult to believe that we have already come to the time of year when things are blossoming. Time is such a whirlwind as of late. WinterContinue reading “Big Plans 3/3/2024”
Ghosts of Parties Past 6/12/2022
By: Jennifer Richardson Holt This week is party number one. Now, that is not to say that this week’s party is number one because it will be the best party ever. No, that is not the context of which I speak. I say this party is number one because it is the first of two.Continue reading “Ghosts of Parties Past 6/12/2022”
