Spring Fling

 

Spring is nature's way of saying, "Let's party!" ~Robin Williams
I'm feeling especially rejuvenated with the arrival of spring this year. Maybe it was the record breaking warming trend (before the actual first day of spring) that put me in such an excited state! I'm sure that has a lot to do with it! Even more so, I think it's the promise of new beginnings that spring brings each year. Come on in and find out “what’s new” in our little corner of the world and check out some inspiring farmgirl sister “UP-DO'S “inside and out!

BEACH FARMGIRL BLOGIVERSERY

 Welcome to my little celebration sisters! I'm so glad you could join me today! Spread out your beach blanket and raise a glass with me in honor of farmgirls everywhere! We would not be here today if it weren't for Sister # 1 bringing us all together! Three cheers to MaryJane for creating a place where farmgirls can gather up to gab and gush! Hip- Hip Hurray! Hip -Hip Hurray! Hip- Hip Hurray!

Cottage Fever

"Cottage Fever” is a powerful force! It never really goes away; it just goes dormant for the winter. ~ Deb Bosworth
In our neck of sandy Cape Cod Bay we get hit with a double- dose of spring fever this time of year! The gardening bug starts biting in early February ( even though we are usually still buried in snow ) and our tiny off-grid Cottage by the Sea begins to whisper our names ever so softly. Thoughts and images of past summers begin to swim in our heads and hearts, reminding us that “The Cottage " awaits. With each passing day those whispers grow louder beckoning us to return to the BEACH!

 

Debbie Bosworth, on the beach

Debbie Bosworth,
is a certified farmgirl at heart. She’s happily married to her beach bum Yankee husband of 20 years. She went from career gal to being a creative homeschooling mom for two of her biggest blessings and hasn’t looked back since. Debbie left her lifelong home in the high desert of Northern Nevada 10 years ago and washed up on the shore of America’s hometown, Plymouth, MA, where she and her family are now firmly planted. They spend part of each summer in a tiny, offgrid beach cottage named “The Sea Horse.”

“I found a piece of my farmgirl heart when I discovered MaryJanesFarm. Suddenly, everything I loved just made more sense! I enjoy unwinding at the beach, writing, gardening, and turning yard-sale furniture into ‘Painted Ladies’ I’m passionate about living a creative life and encouraging others to ‘Make Each Day their Masterpiece.’”

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
– Mark Twain.
