The weather in Ohio is wretched and my mood is starting to reflect the weather. Wretched. My backyard is a swamp, my freshly groomed dogs now look like strays and smell like Fritos. I’ve ruined two pairs of Gap City Flats over the course of 5 days and have mopped my kitchen floor more times [...]

I can’t wait until the market is overflowing with juicy, ripe strawberries and stunning stalks of rhubarb.
