NEW YEAR, NEW RECIPE.

We spent our New Year's Day at Hill and Hollow - celebrating with lots of friends, old and new. It was a potluck kind of gathering - the best kind of meal when all the guests are farmers. Because we have had dried cranberries sitting around on the shelf for awhile, and because we will take any excuse to splurge on citrus this time of year (while its "in season"), I baked cranberry orange bread - inspired by my main gal Martha. The bread was a success - definitely a sweet treat that was a favorite of the children. Much like these scones I made last year, I think orange is a wonderful flavor to bake with.Bread recipe HERE - I didn't follow all the strict rules for whipping and folding in and the loaves were still light and fluffy.Happy 2014!- Hannah.

HERE'S TO NEW YEARS.

We've had a truly amazing 2013 thanks to you folks, these folks, our folks and this folk-way of living we've decided upon (sorry, couldn't help myself). We moved into our cabin. We fell in love with a motley group of chickens. We started our first CSA in Bowling Green. We made some inspiring new friends and we were inspired by our ever-generous, loving and supportive family.New Year's Eve is always a time of reflection and possibility, and the only resolution we are eager to make is to never forget to be grateful for everything that 2013 brought us and everything that 2014 may bring.So here's to the New Year! Raise a glass to a farmer tonight as many of them, like us, will likely be asleep long before midnight. But we'll see you in 2014!- Jesse.
