Saving Some Summer

Family

Yesterday we went blueberry picking, then purchased a basket of South Carolina peaches and Washington State cherries at the local produce stand. Today we went to the Farmer’s Market in Sylva and got some fresh edamame and homemade mozzarella cheese. All of those have made it into the freezer for a little bit of summer sunshine in the middle of winter. Just think of Peach Pie on Pi Day! And for more immediate consumption we came home with locally grown lettuce, heirloom tomatoes, sausage, bratwurst, pork chops, and eggs from heritage breed chickens! Truth to tell some of the fruit is also for immediate consumption. Have we ever mentioned that one of the things we love about Jackson County is the easy availability of tasty local foods?

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!

The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
