top ten posts of 2014

December 28, 2014

Whew, are we actually at the end of the year already? Or, finally? Yes, both. Happy end of the year to you, friends. I thought it would be fun to glance backwards and see the top ten posts of 2014. I am always surprised by the thoughts that spark the most conversation, so this is fun for me.

Fearless. A post from last January was all about replacing fear with faith. And it led to a wonderful year, I almost can’t believe it! My journey to that “aha moment” to say the least.

Slow Food Early Spring Ordering Also from last January, a lot of us were pretty excited about getting our gardens started! No surprise. I keep company with some wonderful growers.

Reviewing Dee Nash’s Book! Then in February I was honored to be one of the bloggers who previewed, reviewed, and hosted giveaways for my friend Dee Nash’s first book, the 20-30 Something Guide to Gardening. That was so fun! She photographed me for her book, too, even though I barely qualify for this age group, ha!

Ted Bundy Ah, yes. Ed-tay Undy-bay. If you haven’t read this story yet, you might want to take a few minutes to do so. Pretty funny.

Notes to Boys I have had the pleasure of interviewing lots of authors, but this one stands out. Pam Ribon’s book Notes to Boys was laugh-out-loud hilarious, wonderful, smart, and just everything good about books by authors from my generation. Trading notes with her was even more fun. Here is my review of her fabulous memoir.

Harvey’s Story I ran the OKC Memorial Marathon for the first time last spring, more than anything to honor my husband’s parents, who were first responders to the Murrah Building bombing in 1995. Harvey was kind enough to sit for a lengthy and heart-touching interview over a series of quiet nights at the farm. And the first part of his interview was well accepted. You all were so affectionate to him with your words.

No More Belly Dancing for Me In August I became a belly dancer and then stopped. I had reasons.

Worm or Pasta? I am neither proud nor terribly upset by this, but my dilemma over identifying a weird house plant passenger got plenty of traffic. This post from September was, well, interesting.

Introducing My Great-grandpa’s Apiary Journal Last year my Uncle Tim gave me the most wonderful gift, his grandpa’s (my great-grandfather, Papa Joe) beekeeping journal. I introduced it to you in January and have been sharing entries from it in bits and pieces every since. More to come in 2015!

Clinging to Love Throughout last year I wrote pretty frequently about the incredible power of Love, prayer, faith, and positive thinking. In May I strove to clear up a few misconceptions and hope that it was successful. I think a lot of you, my friends, are thirsty for affirmning words and deep spiritual nourishment. It is available! And truly anything is possible. Even more of that this coming new year.

I am so thankful for you, every time you choose to click over here and see what’s happening at the Lazy W or in my head. I’m looking forward to hitting reset in a few ways and starting the fresh new year with better focus, longer reach, and deeper love.

Are there any Lazy W moments from this past year that stand out to you? What about in your own life? I would love to hear.

For the record, it was a worm.
But not a butt worm.
XOXOXOXO
