June 2022 Top 3
I am eager to turn my attention to a new season, spend more time with my kids and embrace the longer days. My top 3 this month reflects my mood, interests and reading.
#1
Six Seasons
This is the number 1 used cookbook in my kitchen. I once had dreams of working that CSA box diligently but even if I have become more modest in my vegetarian adventures, I still appreciate the breakdown of this book to eat seasonally all year long. Find it here.
#2
Atomic Habits
As you all know, I spend a lot of time in my car and am an avid book listener. My newest obsession is Atomic Habits by James Clear. I have a love-hate relationship with alleged self help books but this is such an interesting mix of psychology, sociology, history and practical tips.
I have found this to be the perfect blend for making changes in my own life-- and it's entertaining. Listen to it here.
#3
Summer Solstice
Summer Solstice-- the days are long, grateful and warm. So I'll share this:
The Sun by Mary Oliver
Have you ever seen
anything in your life
more wonderful
than the way the sun,
every evening,
relaxed and easy,
floats toward the horizon
and into the clouds or the hills,
or the rumpled sea,
and is gone–
and how it slides again
out of the blackness,
every morning,
on the other side of the world,
like a red flower.
streaming upward on its heavenly oils,
say, on a morning in early summer,
at its perfect imperial distance–
and have you ever felt for anything
such wild love–
do you think there is anywhere, in any language,
a word billowing enough
for the pleasure
that fills you,
as the sun reaches out,
as it warms you
as you stand there,
empty-handed–
Happy Summer!
