You are the trip I did not take, you are the pearls I could not buy, you are my blue Italian lake, you are my piece of foreign sky.
"What a happy woman I am living in a garden, with books, babies, birds, and flowers, and plenty of leisure to enjoy them!"
--Elizabeth von Arnim
from Elizabeth and Her German Garden (1898)
Thanks for visiting! I'm a happy wife and mother to six delightfully mischievous children. I fill my early mornings with university teaching and spend the rest of the day finding joy in my children, my garden, and my kitchen. I love running & reading, planning new adventures, trying out new recipes, and watching my children discover their world. This is my blog: be prepared for lots of pictures, lots of foodie talk, and lots of ruminations on my continually evolving philosophies on parenting, eating, and living.
Please comment!!! (I hate that talking-to-the-void feeling). Or feel free to email me at theirchronicles@gmail.com.

Rachael I'm so sorry to hear you're sick, especially since this is almost summer and you should be allowed to enjoy yourself a little. Get better soon!
Love you, sweetheart. Hope you feel much better soon. Mono? That would be not fun, though Ruth got over it quickly. I'll pray for you that you recover quickly.
I'm sorry you're sick!
*Advice from one who has been there...twice in the past two months:
Finish your medicine!! Or the strep will come back!
...Although I have been getting good things from it. Sympathy from Jordan and caramel apple cider from starbucks!!
:-( I hope you feel better soon! And I hope it's not actually mono!
Ugh. I can think of few things less fun. I hope you recover swiftly, and that Abigail and Juliet are kind to you while you're sick (and afterwards, too).
I came across your blog from Megan Nelson. Did you ever live in Michigan? You look familiar. I think we may have been in the same stake, Kalamazoo. Just wondering. Sorry to hear of the sore throat, that's no fun.
