On Owl Brook: October 2011
http://maryober-onowlbrook.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 5, 2011. I met a woman this summer who's family has been vacationing for generations in a town close by that I've always considered being half way between here and the middle of nowhere. When I asked her what could possibly bring her back year after year to a property with no lake access, no ocean view, no grand mountain vistas, she smiled and told me that "it was The Best Place to watch the clouds". I'm trying to remember to watch the clouds more often. Links to this post.

On Owl Brook: Thankful
http://maryober-onowlbrook.blogspot.com/2011/11/thankful.html
Friday, November 25, 2011. The day before Thanksgiving at my job-type job is kind of a big deal. In fact, it's THE big deal. And to give thanks. Truly I am one of the lucky ones and have much to be thankful for. But this year in particular:. I am thankful for the change in seasons. For the chance to reset, re-assess and shift pace. I am thankful for wood heat and cold storage. I am thankful for a strong cup of coffee, a slow cup of tea, and a good bottle of wine. I am thankful for good neighbors.

Monday, February 14, 2011. For You, Valentine. Out of all the Holidays, this one might be my favorite. I know, I know. It's all hogwash, right? A conspiracy of florists and chocolatiers. A Hallmark holiday. It's a day to celebrate love. And who doesn't love love? So great big hearts to everyone. Lot's of x's and o's. To friends and family - Thanks for being you. I love Yous Guys. And To C- What can I say? You're my favorite everything. Happy Valentine's. 3 3 3. Links to this post. View my complete profile.

Monday, January 10, 2011. Why I Love This Man: Reason #347. This weekend I found myself pondering the absurdity of soap. Sitting on the couch Saturday evening I posed this question to my husband. How is it, do you suppose, that someone even came up with that? I asked him. "I mean, you're standing there, looking at this pile of animal fat in front of you and then say to yourself, Hmm, maybe I'll mix that with some lye. And then you decide to smear it all over your body.". Links to this post.

On Owl Brook: March 2011
http://maryober-onowlbrook.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 23, 2011. Back on the J.O.B. Picture this: Sunny summer morning, hot coffee in hand, I stroll across the street to the barnyard. Cross-legged on a hay-wagon, I soak up the heat seeps into the valley. I feel free, I feel unfettered, I feel totally at peace. In some ways I felt that I had made it already. This past summer was a little different. This past summer wasn't really any fun. And if this was where I had made it. To then I had definitely taken a wrong turn somewhere. It's a difficu...

On Owl Brook: June 2011
http://maryober-onowlbrook.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 1, 2011. Well On Our Way. Spring can be hit or miss in New Hampshire and I think most of us would agree that this one has been mostly miss. Fields flooded, farmers worried, and if you took your car down our dirt road earlier this season you were likely to sink out of sight. After almost two weeks solid of rainy weather it's a wonder we didn't all just declare the whole weekend a holiday (and yesterday too! Just to sit and soak up some well deserved sunshine. What can I say? Well On Our Way.

On Owl Brook: Out of the Box
http://maryober-onowlbrook.blogspot.com/2013/02/out-of-box.html
Saturday, February 9, 2013. Out of the Box. So, it's been awhile. Over a year since I've written anything. And what have I been doing? Outside neglecting this blog and ignoring the occasional request for a post? I haven't been making pots. I haven't been posting on Etsy. I haven't been building my business. Been fixing the house. I've been going to work. I've taken some time to visit with friends. But mostly I've been re-examining myself. Yeah, I do that a lot. And what have I come up with? I spent a goo...
