Simple. Delicious. Healthy. You ain't dreaming. These muffcakes are the real deal. Are they muffins? Cupcakes? Tiny morsels of bliss fallen from heaven? Who knows. All that matters is that they're not too good to be true.

This is the one watercolor I've done where I couldn't part with the original. I just love Mr. Great Horned too much. A canvas print of this painting is one option of dozens for the winners of the Winter Solstice Sweepstake. This drawing was so much fun last year I decided to make it an annual tradition. Join me on my newsletter to enter. The email comes once a month; it's a way for me to share stories about human-nature connection, outdoor play, and women's empowerment. Thanks to those already keeping me company! Link to join the fun in my bio.

Right now I'm studying herbs. My mind is routinely blown by the power of plants. I knew lavender offered stress relief, but I recently read about this flower's ability to help troubled skin, balance mood swings, and improve digestion. It's also a natural disinfect. Wowsaz! I'm experimenting with tinctures and salves from the lavender I grew this summer, and already planning additions to the herb garden. 🌱

Aloha from the Tunnel. ⌛️🔦🖊

Things I love about Portland:
1. Art everywhere: sprayed onto rusting cars, telephone poles, wooden fences, and brick buildings
2. Gluten free everything
3. Gnomes in nearly all the stores
4. Normal is a fluid concept
5. Time with a best friend
While I am spoiled by Montana's beauty and relative tranquility, city time helps keep things in perspective. The seemingly infinite expressions of the human experience astounds me.

Hey hi 👋🏼 I'm excited to launch the second annual Winter Solstice Sweepstake! One existing and one new subscriber to my monthly newsletter will receive a free 12X16 canvas print from my shop. This watercolor painting is one of a dozen options available to the winners. All subscribers receive The Work Behind the Body ebook, writing worksheets to Salt and Ink posts, and sneak peeks into my fantasy novel about an ancient lineage of wild women. Come join the fun! Link to subscribe is in my bio. ✨

I know it's officially winter when this sage king moves back into the forest neighboring my home. It's a small forest, encircled by a golf course, old landfill, and suburbia. I walk in it nearly everyday. It teaches me the nuances of change and the resiliency of wildness. I've seen beaver, muskrats, deer, kingfishers, geese, heron, sand hill cranes, falcons, and eagles within the birch and dogwood. I've heard coyotes and have stepped in bear poop. This forest, though small, brings me hope and joy and comfort. I feel at home in its folds.

I've been practicing posting photos of myself. I know this sounds kinda silly, calling it a practice, but I grapple with how to be seen on a public space, (and to feel authentic doing so). I've always wanted to be a writer, an "author," but that requires visibility in my life. Accountability. Vulnerability. When I publish something I create, I'm open to others' opinions and judgements. I've unintentionally hurt people by what I write. I'm bound to do it again. I've been ashamed by some of my work. I think all of our careers ask us to be vulnerable in some ways. For me, it's knowing I'm imperfect and flawed but putting myself out there anyways because I love writing more than I love my ego or reputation. 📸 @speedcoachingandcreative. Thank you, Blair. ❤️

Jehuty has the purrrtiest eyes in all the land. Even though I've always been more of a "dog person," I've grown to love our kitty. I mean, she's passive aggressive and slower to forgive my human imperfection, but she's also taught me a thing or two about indulging in naps and giving less fs about what people think.
