Hello and welcome! This blog is a place to share insights, inspiration, recipes and photographs from our family farm on the Canadian prairies — my home for the last 35 years.

Putting pen to paper and being behind the lens of a camera have been integral parts of who I am since I was a child. Teachers and friends have encouraged me along the way to keep doing both. It was my son who gave me the push to start sharing all of it here in 2015.

Now in my sixth decade, I’m shifting creatively and feeling a pull to stretch beyond my comfort zone of what I’ve published in the past.

Starting in 2024, I’ll be sharing more fiction and creative non-fiction. Some stories have been sitting in a binder for many years; others are works in progress. I’m confident as I dedicate more time to the process, inspiration will flow and perhaps a book or two will evolve. I feel I’m at a ‘now or never’ stage of life, and it’s time to release those untold stories into the world.

I’m excited to welcome you to follow along!

In the meantime, feel free to peruse my site. You’ll find moving stories from our farming community and inspiring women, deeply personal pieces on mental health and grief, poetry, recipes and many of my favourite prairie photos.

Enjoy your ‘tour’ and let me know what resonates with you. I truly appreciate you taking the time to pause, read my ‘word etchings’ and take in the views from my prairie home.
