Standing In Loneliness
I came to LA seeking loneliness and I found it. In my loneliness, I have always found myself. It makes me wonder if we don't keep our lives so busy and so filled with people just so that we can avoid this very thing: to spend time with one's self.
I lead a rich life, filled with people whose needs often trump my own. It is difficult to impossible to discover one's own self and identify one's own needs in a cacophony of voices, opinions and requests. (Here I mostly refer to my lovely children.)

My Buckwheat Pancake Recipe Featuring aMYLK!
I'm popping up at a new market this weekend! You'll find us Saturday at Portland Farmers Market at PSU, Beaverton Farmers Market, Hollywood Farmers Market, and Portland Farmers at King Elementary on Sunday.

When I planned this getaway with my oldest daughter, it still felt like summer and I had visions of us swimming in rivers and camping outside under the stars. I had no idea temperatures would be down in the 40's at night with highs of 65. Fall entered through the side door and my summer visions were swept away. I missed it. I was so busy working, I missed summer!
