Welcome to the musings of Angie Windheim (that's me!). A garden-obsessed writer, artist, and mid-century mama to three 20-somethings. The nest may be empty, but the mothering journey continues. Here you'll find my stories about sowing seeds for life's second half, staying curious, and growing old gratefully. Â Make sure you don't miss a post - subscribe here.Â
