This is a difficult post to write, probably because I am still right smack dap in the middle of whatever this funk is. But it needs to be said, and you deserve to know what is going on. To put it bluntly and get straight to the point: I’ve kind of lost my way with …
Happy Thursday Friends, This week I thought we would try something new! Each Thursday I’m gonna check in with you about some of the stuff going on in my life…musings, things I’m digging, and what we are up to. It’s my hope that we will get to know each other even better. I was recently …
I recently attended a narrative stage discussion on ethnic foods in the Finger Lakes, organized by the New York State Folklore Society. The event, You are What You Eat held at the Auburn Theater, was really enjoyable, and found the whole experience informative, so I thought I would share my observations and takeaways.

I was recently looking back through my archives and came to the realization I had only posted 20 times in 2016, and there was a period of time where I didn’t post a single thing for 3 months straight. In the past I have posted a year in review, sharing blog highlights and whatever else …

How did it get to be Christmas week already? I still have so much to do! It has been a such a fun year! I can’t believe in January I will be celebrating 3 years of blogging here at Home in the Finger Lakes. I am so, so grateful for your love and support of …
The weather has been absolutely gorgeous! It has been very mild here. But I really haven’t taken the time to enjoy this unusually mild start to winter, and I should. Winters are long in Upstate New York, and I should be out taking in the fresh air and soaking up whatever Vitamin D nature feels …
