Mud, Malfunctions and Making Progress - Karen's Corner - 30.11.25

A mix of sideways rain, sudden frosts, short days, and the annual question of w hy do all the appliances choose this exact month to give up?

We’ve had torrential rain that turned fields into lakes, followed immediately by freezing temperatures that turned th

There’s something grounding about tending the land when the seasons are turning with the days getting shorter, the air cooler, and everything’s quietly preparing for rest. The fact that we have very little idea abou
