June 11th ✨ I can honestly say I absolutely can't wait until we have chickens again. I reeeaally miss fresh eggs and homegrown chicken. 😭 My ❤️ and my oldest are heading off to Manitoba today, and then on to BC to work about two hours north of Smithers for a while. It's always a little bittersweet watching them go. In the meantime, we've been trying our darndest to get everything lined up for when we're ready to put an offer in on a place. And now that we have two potential properties on our radar, it's starting to feel real.

The sun is shining this morning and after the days of stormy skies and rain it's a welcome sight. 🌞

Found some ground ivy, also known as creeping Charlie, so of course I had to gather a little. 🥰 This batch will be infused in oil and tucked away for making a soothing salve later on. Ground ivy has a lhistory in traditional herbalism and is often valued for its anti inflammatory, astringent, and soothing properties. It has been used to help calm minor skin irritations, bruises, and support the healing of small cuts and scrapes.

And since I'm so prone to bumps and bruises this will come in handy 🙃🤣

The cleavers were ready to pick, so I headed out and harvested a little bit this morning. Now it's time to turn this fresh batch into an infused oil. I use an old yogurt maker for my herbal oil infusions, and honestly, it works wonderfully. It's become one of my favourite little herbal hacks.

This batch is destined for oil, while the next harvest will be carefully dried away for tea or tucked aside in case I want to make another batch of infused oil during the winter months.

Life doesn't always need grand adventures to be meaningful. Sometimes, it's found in the backyard... in the gentle nudge of a nose, the warmth of the setting sun, and the reminder to slow down enough to notice it all.

"Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart." 💛

These are the moments I hope I never forget.
