I need to sabe this newsletter and read it again in June! You’ve reminded on the other side of the World what it must be like to make new years plans in mid summer when we make ours in the dead of winter when everything is on pause due to light levels. Mine was my garden sowing plan for the year because as long as I spend a good few hours growing food in my garden everything else will be all the better for it - keeps me sane, sorts me out. I never tried getting our son to sleep under the Stars but it makes sense and eating outside is lovely. I also like watering the garden with à watering can in summer, you notice more, time away from the mum and side chores, and you’re with the plants.
I just touched back on Australian soil for Christmas, on my first morning back I walked into my friend’s yard and grabbed a handful of peppy leaves and just sniffed them profusely!
Thank you for the reminder that the small things are not to be overlooked.
I’m going to be making more effort to garden again in the new year and I love your idea about just adding one thing from your garden to your meal!
Also, how magic is putting kids to sleep under the stars! I did it for about 4 months this year at my son’s insistence before the mosquitos got too bad!
Looove these! Since the days have warmed (and we now have the privilege of a backyard) we’ve been eating outside most nights, and I’ve gotta say, it’s wonderful!! Also, I agree, watering the garden does feel luxurious 😌
Wishing you a relaxing and soul filling down time! Catch you in 2025.
This was absolutely excellent. I have three kiddos and I for sure see the beauty in these tiny resolutions!! I especially LOVE the idea of adding something, anything, from the garden to dinner!
Love it Casey! Wishing you and your family special time together doing these things plus a healthy dose of rest (as much as parents of little ones can find!) MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄🌟

this is wonderful. Watering your garden at the end of a summers day truly is a special feeling I think
