(This post’s theme song is “Dear Theodosia” from Hamilton the Musical) You are alive! You are awake! Be good! Be true! Be beautiful! Be yourself! ~Tiffany Renée (me) ❤ I placed this by the door when my daughters were little, where it’s been ever since. In my grandmother’s house our door message was “A winner never quits. And a quitter never wins.” It’s also on my dad’s headstone. I wanted my own message of resilience to come from these loving and soulful eternal qualities as a reminder each time they left the house. ❤#inspirationalquotes #truth #beauty #goodness #soul #consciousness #permaculture #zone0 #slowlife #nicaragua #parenting #parenthood #deartheodosia

My Grandma Bea taught me to sew. I had heartache not bringing her Bernina with me. It was too heavy to fly. I bought a little machine down here to do hems, like these curtains. I feel close to her when I sew. I’m not good, but I can get the job done. Grateful for the skills. But I wish had done more to teach my daughters home skills. I felt it would limit their horizons, feminize them too much. But now I understand that home skills make us more resilient and self-reliant. #permaculture #skills #sewing #feminism #fashion #homedecor #homeeconomics #homesteading #slowlife #nicaragua

Found these beautiful large ceramic pots at the Mercado Campesina in town yesterday (C110 each, $4). The organic nursery (vivero) there has some starts and succulents too. They sell bags of compost and a carbon and rice hull (granos y casco de arroz) mixture. I bought both to add to the pots. Temporary home until we can build the garden space. Need to erect a barrier so horses don’t munch on our herbs. I found some old rebar to reuse. #reuse #compost #carbon #herb #herbgarden #zone1 #caterpillar #butterfly #bugs #moth #permaculture #slowlife #nicaragua
