Once 
![The first photos are of my parents’ sprawling rural Arkansas garden. The last is of my tiny little beds in the big city. Plants bring life to even the smallest corner!
I’ve been reading some beautiful fiction this year, and I just posted a review of a book by one of my favorite authors, Leif Enger. (https://therestfulhome.com/brave-young-handsome-review/ in your browser, or click on the link in my Instagram profile) If you don’t have time to read the book, though, here’s just a quote or two for your enjoyment:
🎼
“Death arrived easy as the train; [he] just climbed aboard, like the capable traveler he was.”
🛤️
On riding a horse: “You are a feeble and tenuous being; the only thing a horse wants from you is your absence.” 🐎 😄
