“They also serve who only stand and wait.” – John Milton
There is something at once magical and commonplace about an heirloom family recipe–for these aromas and flavors were created and enjoyed in times long past by people, every-day people, who were made of the same stuff as we are. To make their recipe is to preserve their memory.
“How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?” How do you capture a moment…is there a way to hold it in your hand forever?
2022 was a year filled with celebrations for my family–or perhaps, learning how to celebrate more intentionally. It was a summer of tea parties, inspired by the elegance of the Regency era.
I hope that, by sharing some of the beauty that has touched my heart and life, you–my readers–may also be touched, inspired, and filled with joy.
