We're inside, but the earth is coming alive with new growth and that energy of creative expansion is here for all of us. I'm excited by all of the new offerings I continue to work on from home. New fabrics, new natural dye colors and new styles. Here's what I'm aligning with during this slow springtime.

- Tender - Reads like a romance novel to seasonal vegetables. This is the one cookbook I'd keep if I had to choose. Recipes are centered around the elevation of a particular vegetables so it's easy to work with what you have.

- The Inland Sea - A travelogue about personal discovery set in Japan's gentle & beautiful inland sea.
- Maiden - Two sailing movies, I know. But it's so good to be home on my sailboat I'm on a kick. Maiden chronicles the passage of the first all-women boat to enter and complete a grueling around-the-world race.
