January and February can be damp, gray, and cold, but they can also be crystal clear, white, and beautiful. What matters more than the weather is that we reach out to each other, connect, and make memories. We check on friends living and honor those gone. Support Rescu. Patronize artisans. Listen to and buy music by beloved and talented Renaissance, medieval, and Celtic musicians.

This month, LadyFaire will be exploring tales of Slavic folk and fairy tales, sharing recipes from the Slavic and Scandinavian parts of our beautiful world and introducing a beautiful female-owned business where you can acquire what you need for preparing those delicious foods,

If we can keep the joy of faire, friendship, and creativity alive, we’ll all be okay. Here’s a health to the company.

Celebrating the magic in the everyday,

Kim Bryant
