Over the last few days, my husband and I traveled to St. Kitts to explore this beautiful tropical island. We visited 31 years ago, and oh, how it has changed. But parts of it are still the same: lovely people, good food, and isolated beaches. Food was our main objective on this trip, along with […]
We Move to the Garden
I began the 4th season of Chosen last night, one of our treasured Lenten activities.
