Solstice



Dimmest and brightest month am I;
My shortest days end, my lengthening days begin;
What matters more or less Sun in the sky,
When all is Sun within?
–C. G. Rossetti (1830–94)

and so the shortest day is here again -how do you mark the moment (12:04)? We may hike or bike during the day, will walk outside to look at the stars, light candles everywhere, share stories of winter and talk about the science of the day.

We'll break out the lemon drop cookies from our Making #2 session too, not sure they'll last until our guests arrive on Monday!
