This Week’s Miscellany: Vol. 126 (Including Ballerinas and Links About Goats and Protein-Shake Helmets)

May 22, 2015 By Haley 9 Comments

It's been a couple of weeks since the last TWM and I'm not sure where to begin! Things have been crazy. I'm planning a new edition for all my email subscribers to the Carrots newsletter (you can sign up here--it's different from the blog posts) all about what's going on with the house and the move because that's been keeping us busy. In addition to the house and the tree saga (which is … [Read more...]

Three Things for a Tuesday

March 10, 2015 By Haley 2 Comments

You know Karen Edmisten, right? If you don't, you need to start reading her beautiful books. Karen is one of my all-time favorite bloggers and just an all-around delightful lady. Christy and I tried not to fangirl TOO MUCH over her when we interviewed her for the podcast. We covered a LOT in this episode including Karen's beautiful wisdom on miscarriage and loss, her conversion, homeschooling, … [Read more...]

Rob Bell’s “Tribe”, MacLaren’s Pub, and the Homeless Guy I Have (Almost) Nothing in Common With

February 22, 2015 By Haley 90 Comments

Rob Bell's "Tribe", MacLaren's Pub, and the Homeless Man I Have (Almost) Nothing in Common With // Carrots for Michaelmas

My 22-month-old daughter had made it through most of evening Mass, but after receiving Communion I was holding her in the back of the church so she could wave to her favorite statue of St. “Shoesoff”“ (Joseph) and kiss his “feetsies.” She waved and beamed to the parishioners walking back to their pews. “Hi!” she grinned at an unkempt man wearing an old military coat and multiple bandanas around … [Read more...]

The Isolation of Food Allergies and The Gift of Hospitality

February 11, 2015 By Haley 1 Comment

Today you can find me over at Kitchen Stewardship chatting about how to host families with food allergies and how to be a helpful guest: "Whatever the cause (or causes) may be, food allergies seem to be everywhere these days. If no one in your immediate family suffers from them, you probably know someone who does. When my oldest child was diagnosed with food allergies, it wasn’t the end of … [Read more...]

Why Do We Still Love Jane Austen?

September 11, 2014 By Haley 39 Comments

Why Do We Still Love Jane Austen? // Carrots for Michaelmas

It’s been 200 years since Jane Austen’s novels were published and yet, Jane mania is still in the air. If you don’t believe me, just look to the 12ft inflatable Mr. Darcy (eerily favoring Colin Firth) floating in London’s Hyde Park last summer. (Clearly, I’m not the only one who loves the 1995 Pride and Prejudice miniseries.) Modern Janeites remain captivated, but do we know why Austen’s so … [Read more...]
