A little birdie told me

A little birdie showed me

once, long ago...yet somehow not so long, oldest bear was shorter than me. it doesn't take much to surpass my stature but that time has come. mountain so tall, steady and strong...may my gentle mountain continue to soar in mind, body and soul. #longago #mountains #mountain #steady #strong #mind #body #soul #stellamccartney #φωλια #φωλιά

because it's almost the weekend. hip, hip hurray for the weekend. #thef0lia #weekendvibes #weekend #hiphiphurray #hurray #cheers #cheerstotheweekend #chinchin #salute #bottomsup #downthehatch #downthegullet #prosit #γειαμας #σαβατοκυριακο

nothing seasonal lasts forever, leaves are powdered with first fallen snow and these tiny boots, bequeathed to another toddler, who undeniably is frenetically covering a lot of ground in them. happy wondering little one. #thef0lia #autumn #fall #seasons #seasonal #leaves #snow #snowflakes #snowflakes❄️ #boots #bootseason #nothinglastforever #φωλιά #φωλια #φθυνόπωρο #φύλλο #φυλλο #φύλλα #φυλλα #μποτάκια #μποτες #χιονι

all strung up. these lights have extinguised, they were around for sometime, but they were in their prime in this space. looking for a fill-in because lighting is everything. #thef0lia #lights #lighting #lightingdesign #lighting_design #stringlights #allstrungup #φωλιά φωλια #φως #φώτα #φωτα

missing these little ears and the sweet toddler face that hid underneath. i'm always making edits in closets; there are a lot of them in our nest, a lot of work, i don't mind the workload one bit. in fact, it's a surge of relief when we donate clothes we outgrow and make space for one's that we will grow into. #thef0lia #organize #organized #organizedlife #organizedhome #organizer #closet #closetorganization #closetorganizing #closetorganizer #edits #donate #φωλιά #φωλια

the childhood magic of seeing something turned into something else. we're venturing out today with one goal, to select, hoist and haul back a tree, so that we can transform a douglas fir into a bewitching spectacle with the flick of a switch. #thef0lia #douglasfir #douglasfirs #tree #trees #christmastree #magic #φωλιά #φωλια #χριστουγεννιάτικοδέντρο #χριστουγεννα #χριστούγεννα #δεντρο #δέντρο #δεντρα #δέντρα #μαγεια

slow it down...rest your arms, rest your legs. massage your face, massage your hands. allow this mask to sink into your flesh, allow your breath to reset your psyche. click link in my bio and search resorative, reviving and nothing mysterious to discover this charcoal, cacao mask from @annmarieskincare. dare to be honest.wild.beautiful. #thef0lia #honestwildbeautiful #mask #cacao #charcoal #selfcare #massage #breath #φωλια #φωλιά

at this table... The world begins at a kitchen table. No matter what, we must eat to live. The gifts of earth are brought and prepared, set on the table. So it has been since creation, and it will go on. We chase chickens or dogs away from it. Babies teethe at the corners. They scrape their knees under it. It is here that children are given instructions on what it means to be human. We make men at it, we make women. At this table we gossip, recall enemies and the ghosts of lovers. Our dreams drink coffee with us as they put their arms around our children. They laugh with us at our poor falling-down selves and as we put ourselves back together once again at the table. This table has been a house in the rain, an umbrella in the sun. Wars have begun and ended at this table. It is a place to hide in the shadow of terror. A place to celebrate the terrible victory. We have given birth on this table, and have prepared our parents for burial here. At this table we sing with joy, with sorrow. We pray of suffering and remorse. We give thanks. Perhaps the world will end at the kitchen table, while we are laughing and crying, eating of the last sweet bite. by Joy Harjo #thef0lia #table #tablescapes #givethanks #thanksgiving #thankful #thankfullyblessed #joyharjo #φωλια #φωλιά #τραπέζι

thankful for the bread we break, thankful for the feast we ate. thankful for the juice we drank. thankful for the sweet and savory scents that perfumed our nest. thankful for the adventurous expressions that resonated throughout our day, but mostly for the peace that falls our way. thankful for the fresh sheets we lay our weary heads. thankful for the sweet dreams brimming with hope. happy thanksgiving to all and to all a good night! may your heart and nest be filled with peace always. #thef0lia #thanksgiving #happythanksgiving #φωλια #φωλιά

the case for savory-sweet has been defended for sometime in the culinary world. so sprinkling sweet corn kernals into unbleached flour, cornmeal, salt and water is not evolutionary, but it's also not seen on shelves with other breads at the supermarket. olives, scallions but never have i seen whole kernal corn in spongy loaves. cornbread, that convectionary kind, with butter already baked into it, yes. this kind, the one that arrives for those occasions when guest gather around the table always seems special. this shiny, golden globe of supple harmonious cohesion is always welcomed with delight. time to get those hands encrusted with this gooey flour mixture and allow to sit over night. always serve warm with butter. happy kneading. #thef0lia #cubancornbread #bread #corn #sweetandsavory #φωλιά φωλια #ψωμι #καλαμποκι

a full bowl, not for long. seasoned pumpkin seeds on a tabletop, or a tray posing as a tabletop. clink link in bio and search, south of the border for more photos and story behind the cooper tray. #thef0lia #pumpkinseeds #seeds #cooper #φωλιά #φωλια

libations. ✔ this vintage item pairs nicely with lamb, however, since we're smoking turkey legs, the chantecotes cotes du rhone petite reserve might be quite all right. if you can track down a bottle, i recommend this affordable blend of grenache, syrah and mourvedre. chin, chin #thef0lia #libations #vintage #chantecotes #cotesdurhone #wine #petitereserve #grenache #syrah #mourvedre #chinchin #salute #cheers #φωλια #φωλιά #στηνυγειαμας #κρασί #γειαμας #γειάμας

sunday before t-day. logistics. trying to figure out the flow of things between the point of origins and the point of consumption. taking inventory today and making a list. still dreaming of my counter stools...we will have to make due with these two make-shift ones. #thef0lia #logistics #makingalist #sundays #sunday #φωλια #φωλιά #κυριακή #κυριακη

i'm always trying to introduce a new twist on an almighty green in the nest...happy tweaking. for recipe click link in bio, search eat more greens. #thef0lia #greens #vegetables #vegetable #bokchoy #babybockchoy #broccoli #chinesebroccoli #eatmoregreens #φωλιά #φωλια #πρασινο #πρασινα #λαχανικο #λαχανικό #λαχανικά #λαχανικα

a young man with a long journey ahead of him and an uncertain future, I can only hope. but hope alone is not enough to effect change...he's already experienced his share of blatant incivility. hope is a start along with unfaintly diligence against the cavalcade of complacent and corrosive thinking. hope is a glimpse of possibility in the dark, it guides the way but only for an instance. it's how you act in that moment that can make or break you...commitment, passion and intent that will transform the spark into...whatever you hunger for. it's the season to hit the mat and see what life will throw at us and how we deal with it all. for more on my thoughts on wrestling click link in bio, search everyone loses. interested in the whole foods i provide my wrestlers search, a mediterranean affair. #thef0lia #wrestling #wrestle #commitment #passion #intent #intentions #hope #diligence #spark #future

someone insisted on getting these up, in fact she wanted to festoon the nest in all its holiday glory. we compromised on these stargazers for now. from the moment they went up she pranced around and middle bear soon joined in...it's infectious, the holiday trimmings, the anticipation of a break from the mundane to gather around for feasting, the gamboling and the simplicity of being...the soft and and loud of it all. #thef0lia #festoon #festoonlights #festooning #stargazers #stargazing #stargazer #trim #trimmings #lights #anticipation #being #gambling #φωλιά #φωλια #στολισμος #στολισμός #στολιζουμε #διακοσμω

don't let this soft and feathery herb fool you, it's packed with flavor...i adore its mighty scent and lusty and woodsy flavor. keep it handy for your celebratory feast. #thef0lia #thyme #flavor #herb #herbs #woodsy #φωλια #φωλιά

november sunset on the terrace, feelings of nostalgia for this place. it's going to be a long winter, but i'm already envisioning time on our little terrace, there's no pacific to admire here but a lush forest and a salt-water pool isn't anything to complain about. technically our current one is more of a veranda, we lack the accordian-glass doors...hmmm, there's an idea...until then, we have work on deck and materials to select before we drag out the lounge chairs. cheers to terrace chilling. #thef0lia #terrace #veranda #φωλια #φωλιά #μπαλκονι

it's a good day for this. peels into the compost and fleshy fruit slowly caramelizing. going to end our meal today with a little apple-crisp tartness. #thef0lia #thef0lia #apples #apple #applecrisp #φωλια #φωλιά #μηλα #μήλα #μήλος #μηλος

alone with my intentions and a pyramid of crimson glass votives. even with my best intentions i don't have a perfect record...at least they are ephemeral. baby girl asked if i was young in this photo. i replied, "it must be the haircut." she had no response which leads me to believe she fell for it. so there you have it, no need to ask how long ago this photo was taken. (read hint) to download this photo onto a computer, i removed the disc from the digital camera and put it inside a floppy disk drive. #thef0lia #votives #candle #intentions #ephemeral #floppydisc #floppydiscdrive #φωλιά #φωλια #κερι #κερί
