What a lift to open my email to find your latest newsletter! Snow here in Goderich Ontario at long last after a very green and mild start to Winter. Take care, best wishes and thank you.

Glad you finally got snow. Ours is gone now but we had squalls yesterday. It's early. Last year we didn't get any til very late. Thanks for reading. K

Hi Kristin, as always love reading your newsletter. I have started creating and selling upcycled paper collage covered light switches but some of them are also covered with hand marbled old wallpaper that my husband collected decades ago. Thought you might enjoy seeing them! But I can't upload pictures here. I'll try emailing it. Loved seeing the collies!

Hi Ruth! Oh that marbled paper is so gorgeous. Love the switch plates. Your husband must have quite the stash. It's such a beautiful thing - that paper. So hard to resist but also hard to cut into. Each piece a work of art. There is a woman in Amherst who makes marbled paper. Chena River Marblers. She teaches classes at her place and all over which I would love to take. Maybe someday.

Hope all is well.

Just finished reading this with my morning cup of tea. I always look forward to your newsletters and get a happy feeling when I see one in my inbox. I love having this little connection with you and your life on the farm. I read all the way through and then go back and enjoy the links. Thanks for giving me this lovely start to my Sunday morning.

Hi Alice. Thanks for reading. Glad you like when you find them in your inbox. Seems like all I get in my inbox these days is offers for sales and pleas for money. Good to have a bright spot. Have a great day. Kristin

I love reading your newsletter. Always excites my less creative side and a different way of life from my own. Thank you so much Kristin.

Hi Sheryl - Happy to share. I started writing a blog back in 2006 before I had a book come out. It quickly changed into something I did to share my world. I discovered not a lot of folks know what living on a farm is all about. It has been very rewarding and a nice spot in my life to meet new folks through the blog and now this newsletter. Thanks for reading and commenting -- Kristin
