I’m still reading . I’m rereading chapter 20 today. ‘There is no sin, no shame in idleness. Rest is a gift.’ Winter is a time of darkness and incubation. A time for contemplation. The twig of a fruiting tree brings blessings of growth, tradition and abundance. I’m deeply delighted with this book! It’s a real treasure trove.

Deeply blessed.

I needed to make something nourishing and filling for dinner. Being snowed in for days means supplies are low. A good friend recommended a recipe from an old book. The Crank’s Recipe Book. I looked it up and can confirm that the creamy leek croustade is delicious. The nutty base makes a great contrast to the creamy leek filling.

The deep snow is so very deeply peaceful in the glen. A daily walk takes me through the Abbey grounds and around a field to the woods. I hope you find deep peace today

I was outside today collecting leaves again, when the glen was disturbed. Not by 3 monks walking by as they had done yesterday. The field next to my home was being driven in, and people with guns, spaniels and a child began shooting pheasants. I took myself inside. I treasure this slow liminal time between Christmas and New Year. It’s a space of peace for me. Beyond work and meetings. I put the kettle on and made a pot of Hug tea. I used my lovely tea cosy, made by my cousin, for the first time. I sweetened the tea with honey, infused with Meadowsweet, rose and lime blossom. I settled down and read some of this wonderful book. Mill dust and Dreaming Bread. I cooked up a pot of broccoli and Stilton soup, with nettle leaf powder, seaweed and dried wild garlic. I read some more. At dusk the pheasants were chooking in the woods once more. I’m sure the black one survived.

It’s quiet and cold. A proper winter frost yesterday and some leaf collecting today. Catching up on some garden tasks. Relishing the little things.

Happy Christmas! Have a peaceful day
