As usual, your words were exactly what I needed to read today. Creating more than I consume hits me today, as I finally deleted my fb and prepare to delete my insta as well. Intentionality about consumerism as well.
I'm thankful you're still writing words on the internet, since I've been following you since 2008 or so! (You, Joy, Deb, and Tracy are the og food bloggers I found back then that I still read and regularly make recipes from!)
"That my joy and delight do far more for the collective than my despair." You paint a lovely picture with your words. And I love the intention of foraging for joy, beauty and delight. It's a message that resonates with me.
Ashley, this is beautifully written and touched on so many things I've been feeling lately - especially love the idea of joy being a form of resistance. Thank you! <3
I admire your writing, Ash - for its skill, and for its substance.
Thanks for sharing yourself with your readers.
This means the world coming from you.

I'm so glad they found you, Katt. I think so many of us have been thinking about these things. Feels so lovely to find our people.

So so timely for me (as your messages always are). Thank you for your words and inspiration, friend. 💕
We so often are on the same page my friend. Counting down the days to mushroom season.

Thanks babe. :)
I always like what you think and write . . . .
Thank you Wayne. I really appreciate that.
lovely~ claiming joy as resistance gives me hope and a little bit of empowerment.
Hope and empowerment - both we need in abundance these days. Sending you love.
Gahhh, that Mary Oliver quote....🥺
Very much yes to all of this!
Thanks Ashley! I was uplifted and will do my best to be creative as I face the day so I have joy to share with others. Thanks
