Millet farmer birds! πŸ’š I love millets, too! I discovered millets in South India where they are the traditional grain older folks remember eating as children; now sadly replaced by white rice. But millets are making a comeback and are easier to find again in India & hopefully in more places. So yum!

Actually, I found the one I got very comfortable to wear! And surprisingly flattering, too. Like, every body looked good in them! It was excellent to party in at an Austen event!

Cover of the book The Dark Is Rising by Susan Cooper. A man wearing a black cape is riding a rearing black horse and looking down on a boy holding up his arm to protect himself in front of a pair of open wood doors with bright light coming through. Snow sits on trees and the ground around the doors.

4/20 really failing on the every day thing, but seasonally appropriate read for the win!
