Feeling so incredibly grateful to have been able to take this trip with Tina & her family again this year. So grateful for a week of playing in these waters & exploring these shores, getting to know this wild isle a bit better. So lucky to have learned a bit more about its people, their stories & lore & ghosts, and the strange, folk spirit that weaves through it all. So lucky to have danced & stomped to some good local music, to have met new native, coastal plants & greeted some familiar friends (more on the plants later), to have watched the sun set & gazed at the stars over the sound. So thankful for bike rides & peanut butter smoothies, sun on my skin & salt in my hair, and a kind of quiet peace you don’t find many places. So honored to be a trusted part of Tina’s family, to be someone her mamas can depend on as they age & need more support in order to still be able to have these experiences together. Even blessed to feel the grief & heaviness of life’s inevitable turning, that follows us to even the most magical of places, sitting right alongside all the joy & beauty & gratitude. Thank you.

I turned 34 yesterday. This has been a year of quiet growth & settling into myself; of learning to see myself more wholly & clearly & compassionately; of settling into my values, discernment, and a sense of self (or perhaps less of a focus on myself at all) that allows me to just BE, and to focus more on what & who I’m in relationship & service to. I’ve been growing seeds & tending bodies & building gardens & creating a new home & getting to know this land I’m blessed to be living on. I’ve been making art & lifting weights & reading books & eating wild plants & singing loudly & dancing wildly & getting a lot weirder with how I care for my bodymindspirit. I am learning to be a better community member, friend, partner, lover, massage therapist, land steward, neighbor, freak, human. I am learning to be better to myself & see what I am able to do as enough, and to see myself as deserving of reciprocity, care, goodness. I am learning the value & sound of my own voice, speaking clearly. I am grateful for another year in this body so I may continue to do so.
Life & this world as it is feels scary & uncertain much of the time. I feel endlessly confused & angry at the way humans are willing to treat each other, this Earth, and all it’s beings in pursuit of the illusion of power & profit. I feel scared & lonely & powerless quite a bit. Most days I want to scream. Many days I do. I rarely have more than a few dollars in my pocket. And yet life feels like a gift. And yet I feel rich with all the things that truly matter. And yet I always have enough, even enough to share. And yet I feel so truly grateful for each year I get to mark myself older. And yet I feel so lucky to have this body that gets to plant herbs & cook food & lift weights & care for others & make things & walk in the woods & dance with my love & laugh with friends & stay with the trouble. And yet it’s a privilege to be here.

I didn’t take many photos this weekend, but it was a magical one spent doing exactly what I wanted to do. Thank you to each & every friend who sent me a sweet message or spent some time with me and made it all the more special. I feel showered with love & I feel very lucky. by @haleighmoon

Last night, I decanted this beautiful batch of fire cider I made on the December full moon. I love this spicy elixir & I give it fair credit for helping me stay well through the winter months. It’s empowering to know I have some immune support waiting in my refrigerator whenever I feel I need it. It makes a mean salad dressing & is delicious over greens (the vinegar also helps make the nutrients in your greens more bio-available & aids in better digestion). All this to say, I’ve been thinking about offering a pre-order for a bottle of next year’s batch. I love making it & would love to make more for anyone who wants some. I’ve already given some to quite a few sickly friends, and huzzah to @sarahjames_handmade for buying a bottle the last two years & inspiring me to do this! I’ll have to do some math to figure out costs & such, but I’d love to know if you think you’d be interested in a bottle (or more!) next year. This would be a pre-order, with funds being used to purchase ingredients, followed by a roughly 6-week waiting period for the medicine to infuse. The order would likely happen sometime in September so that you’ll have your fire cider by winter’s start! Probably local only for now. Gimme your thoughts 🖤🔥 taken in Germantown by @haleighmoon

I’m not loving how this poster came out in the end, but so it goes sometimes, and it’s too late to fuss about ink smudges (a leftie inevitably I’m afraid).
I have lots of holiday gifts still to make, and perhaps you do too. Come gather in the dark & get some good work done. Make Mend Magic Night, next Tuesday 12.16, 6-9 pm, at my house. Sign up so I know you’re coming. I’ll make hot chocolate ❤️❄️ taken in Germantown by @haleighmoon
