‘Tis the season of “figuring it out” for high school seniors and college graduates. That pressure to find a place to land for the next little bit of their lives (or “the rest” of their lives from the college graduate perspective) brings on so much pressure. I will say, that compared to when I was in that stage of life, I do feel that today we are a…
Happy Monday! Here’s to a new spot for me, Kate. I hope it works for you, it definitely is going to work out better for my schedule. No more mad dashes to the finish line late Thursday night. 🙂 I wanted to share a great question that was posed to a panel of ag industry leaders on Thursday, at the New York State Agricultural Society Annual Meeting. It…
Our Happy New Year rang in with a fire in our fireplace. At last, we have fire! I grew up snuggled around one on Sunday afternoons. Lying on the floor in front of a fire with the bottoms of my feet towards the heat was always the set up for a perfect nap! Our new house, which isn’t so new anymore, came with two old fireplaces.

I am thankful.. The christmas tree that flew out of the back of a truck on the Northway yesterday didn’t hurt anyone. Whose tree was it? (Hmmmmm…) Maybe it was the Morning Ag Clips tree? I don’t know. Stephanie, do you know whose tree that was??? And the funny part about it was that the tree was only 1/10 of a mile away from the exit. It was…
Kate will be back next week! In the meantime, enjoy this well-received letter from our archives. May you all have a wonderful Sunday! Dear Sunday, What happened to you? Did you get fired?

Brain dump that is. “Your head’s for having ideas, not for holding them.” –David Allen With our new business adventure, I have to admit I have felt, at times, overwhelmed this past month. We are almost 4 weeks down this new road, and the troops and I are on this learning curve that is steep! The fearless leader has had to be on her game every step of…
It’s on the brink … pushing out the waning summer sun. Mesmerizing me like a trance, it beckons me outside. Quietly I slip out, burners off, things on hold– for just a bit while I indulge. Carried by the wind I hear the geese calling in the distance, their tireless voices ushering in the change of the season. It’s here. There is a golden haze beginning to hover…
Today is Positive Thinking Day. Yes, there seems to be a day for everything now. I personally love National Donut Day, Chocolate Day, and Ice Cream Day … as I am always looking for an excuse to indulge. But I even like the designated days that don’t revolve around food. Like a great quote, I use them as a gentle reminder. Positive Thinking Day. A reminder. Something to ponder. First…
