Found a scrape and some fresh scat while out hunting today — plenty of signs, but the only deer I saw was from the truck on the way out. Bucks came out right after legal light. That’s how it goes sometimes. 🦌

Turned leftover beef broth into a slow cooker French onion soup tonight. Added a bit of bacon for extra flavour and let it simmer low and slow.
Didn’t have baguette or Gruyère on hand this time, but for a ‘use what you’ve got’ meal, it turned out pretty great. 🍲

Some mornings heading out to the bush feels straight out of a horror movie — dark, foggy, quiet. But that’s the part I love most. The stillness before the day really starts. 🌲

Our real job as parents is to work ourselves out of one. Watching my son make his own eggs this morning reminded me that every small skill we teach moves them closer to confidence and independence. 🍳

Kids biking around the cottage today 🚲
There’s something about this country feel that slows everything down in the best way.

It’s apple season, which means the dehydrator has been running nonstop. 🍎
Batch after batch, we’re slicing, drying, and stocking up for snacks that last all winter. Nothing fancy, just homegrown (or locally picked) apples turned into something simple and practical.
