A very good friend of mine (and her husband) introduced me to the lovely art of "fortifying." It usually involves lots of pillows, blankets, soft clothes (often pajamas), comfort foods, and gently doing something that quiets the mind, energizes the soul, and lulls the hum around you. Sometimes, it involves outdoor fun, too. But of a very particular sort. We've been doing a lot of fortifying around here lately--leaning into the hush that comes with the thick quilt of snow tucking us into our home.
Quite play...
Sharp blades...
How do you fortify?
