    Things to Do at Home: Speak to Plants

Toby explains that every interaction between humans is either encouraging or draining. You have the power to speak life into a person. You can encourage them or…

    Things to Do at Home: Bake a Cake

    When I was a child I learned how to bake by watching my grandmothers in the kitchen., it was like watching magic happen. They knew what a measurement was by looking at it. They knew if a cake was baked just right, not to dry not to moist, just by the smell. They knew exactly…

    When was the last time you got a real letter in the mail? Not a bill or something you ordered that you knew was coming, but a real surprise letter? Take some of this time to write a letter to someone you can’t see in person right now. That person can be in the same…

    Books & Sunshine

    I don’t know much that is better than being out in the sunshine of Spring reading. There is a light breeze and birds tweeting. The scent of sweet flowers fill my lungs. My mind falls into the story I hold in my hands. For a few minutes I can forget about the world and spend…
