Kevin Darmody is the President of Waterfall Bank in Clearwater, FL and recently announced they'd taken in some of the Silicon Valley Bank refugees. He is my guest tomorrow. I asked him to describe his bank and he sent this: "Waterfall Bank was founded by several businessmen who were frustrated in dealing with the big money center banks. The banks were not responsive to the requests of these people and gave the impression that these very successful businesspeople were lucky to be banking with them. Waterfall was formed to turn that around. We wanted to focus on providing our customers with the ability to bank wherever and whenever they needed. We want our customers to know they’re valued." ANY QUESTIONS?

Sassy has been my best trail buddy, partner in crime, late night listener, comic relief for 32 years. This week she got a little sick, but thankfully recovered quickly, reminding me that every day is a blessing and never to take for granted a simple scratch or winnie. For a little 11-year old girl to grow up with a horse, and then throw her kids up as a 44-year old mom, is special in a way I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to describe. Our friend Nick’s farm @growingbacktoeden produces the most wonderful carrots and Sassy’s absolute favorite part is the carrot top. So of course - Sassy gets what Sassy wants!
I stopped eating bread a couple years ago when I went “high-fat / low-carb” for health reasons. I had never heard the benefits of freshly-milled grains - only how bad bread is for our metabolism. I had always seen bread as a treat, not as a nutritious food. Now I know that when flour is freshly milled, using the entire grain, bread can offer a host of vitamins and minerals. It’s entirely different than commercial breads at grocery stores. While I still focus on protein and healthy fats, I am back to enjoying bread that we make at home, immediately after grinding our own flour. It’s delicious and gives me another excuse to eat more butter!
When we lived in Washington state, we used to purchase a Forest Service land pass to hike with a chainsaw and cut down a wild tree for Christmas. It helped with forest management, maintaining space between trees to reduce wildfire risk, and also gave us a very fun adventure. We have not done that yet in Florida - though you can get a similar pass. The tree would look a little different, of course. But we still get a real tree. I love the smell and at least feel a tiny bit of connection to the wild trees we left behind out west. If you decorate with a tree, what kind of Christmas tree do you put up? And what is your favorite tradition?
