Day 7. Drink

I have one drink I love. It is kombucha.



I picked up my first bottle last summer while in Sacramento at Target of all places.

It was strange at first, but it made me feel wonderful.


 It is especially helpful for a healthy gut.

 Patrick has been making it for our family since September.

This is our original "mother." She's not all that cute, huh!? 



 THESE are her "babies."







It's quite the production when you make as much as we do!




Well, It's fermented tea.

 All you need is Sugar, Tea (we use Herbal Yerba Mate') and a scobie.
 Oh, and time, jars and a warm place.

We use the water heater closet.



In case you were wondering, the kids LOVE it. 

If you ever wan't to try an make your own, we've got scobies to share!

I'll mail it to you. ;) 

Scobies Anyone???

close-up?!

I wish. 
Right about now I am missing my good camera which died of UNnatural causes a while back. 

The close-up option is out of the question, but we still found something pretty cool! 

A robin is building her next very 
close-up
to our window where we can watch in awe.

It's pretty amazing.

Here she is:
If you can tell from the ghetto picture.

  
Her favorite building material: moss. 
{We've got lots of that around here thank goodness.}
 She has been keeping her eye on us, but rarely stops building her nest! 

At the same time, I am trying to tear apart mine so we can move!
 

Wish us luck!
Believe me, I need it.

Day 1. Morning.

I still can't believe it.

Every morning when finally get out of bed, I walk into the living room and see this:


For over 9 months I have lived in this cabin home. It's a crazy old house with electrical problems, high power bills and carpet but WOW, what a view.

I'm so thankful for the days that I actually take the time to notice it.
