Starting the Countdown (CSA Menu Plan #66)

Published on September 25, 2016 By Emily. Updated on September 25, 2016

We’ve officially moved from “back to school” to “a baby is coming!” mode around here.  Yesterday involved doing some baby-related shopping, a bit of nursery organizing and trying (again) to decide on a name.  Today we installed the car seat bases into the cars.  We should still have several weeks to go, but we’re well aware that babies tend to arrive whenever they feel like it, so we’re trying to be ready.  I’ve also been filling in my editorial calendar with guest posts to cover my maternity leave – it’s not too late to sign up!  Meanwhile, amidst all the baby-related chaos, I’m trying to keep life as normal as possible and enjoy the next month of non-parenthood as much as possible.

The Pick Up

I made my first ever trip to @seconddropfarm in La I made my first ever trip to @seconddropfarm in Lanesborough this morning to pick blueberries with my daughter. We had a lovely time at the farm, and especially enjoyed the short walk to the lush blueberry bushes, and the beautiful flower and lavender fields. We didn't participate in pick-your-own flowers today, but it's definitely on my radar for the future.
We are looking forward to some muffin baking soon! 🫐
