Only three days until Christmas, and most importantly, today is the last day to get something on Amazon Prime in time for Sunday. You know who you are, Christmas procrastinators, and I used to be

Can you believe it’s the week of Christmas? I sure as heck can’t. It seems like Thanksgiving was barely a few days ago, and now I’m looking ahead to 2017 with saucer sized eyes. It’s

I love today’s lead photo, but this morning’s story is a sad one. The Pelis family of Northern Creek Farm in Hadley, MA lost their home to a fire last weekend. The family has been

I always knew on some vague level that show jumping was more a year-round sport than eventing, but I never appreciated until recently to what extent. December is by far the slowest month I’ve encountered

And so it’s come to this. Just eight days left before the gifting extravaganza that is Christmas and I have done absolutely ZERO holiday shopping. This is only slightly better than last year or any year

Yesterday, winter actually really arrived in my part of town, starting with a balmy 10 degrees to do the barn chores in the morning. Luckily, nothing warms you up like vigorously scooping poop and throwing

It’s 10 days out from christmas, so I hope you have all your holiday planning done by now! I got super into the Christmas spirit this week by finally decorating the tree I cut down

This time of year should be easy and fun, with parties and candy and Christmas movies. While I do get all three, I also get dumped on at work since everyone else realizes they have

It’s definitely that time of year when eventers from all over the country flock to the southern parts of the country to escape the cold. There truly is nothing like continuing your winter training regimen

Where to begin about the USEA Convention…It’s a whole lot of meetings and a whole lot of socializing, but it’s worth it to attend to be both a participant in the management and improvement of

I’m the proud mother of a darling, copper-headed little toddler who spends her days watching a great deal of Show Jumping live streams in between episodes of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Doc McStuffins. I’ve put

While it hasn’t snowed in Virginia (yet), it is definitely entering what I like to call the “Michelin Man” zone, wherein I wake up in the pitch black, go to my closet, and spend 10

I’ve recently gotten enough time to go out Fox Hunting again, which I don’t usually do in the winter. Mostly, I’ve just always had horses that were nut bags and totally not suitable. One time,

What is this white stuff I’m seeing on my Facebook over the last few days? Snow? It’s so weird to have migrated to warmer climates this year, where I likely won’t see much in the

The rain we’ve been begging for has finally arrived. I am very fortunate to be outside of the fire danger zone in Western North Carolina, but the air has been filled with smoke for months

Listen folks. Let the significant other buy your riding gloves, your winter socks and if you’ve done a fair amount of training on them about sugar content and the benefits of flax, your horse treats.

I’ve spent the past few weeks reading every single cookbook that I own (plus a few new ones) and making exhaustive lists of things that I want to cook over the next few horrible cold

Looking at this photo, I don’t know if I should laugh, cry, or send Sabrina a box of chocolates as well as some Orvis shampoo (for both horse and blanket!). Possibly a combination of all

One of my favorite things about covering events for EN is keeping an eye out for exciting, young, up-and-coming horses. Leslie Law and Fernhill Divergent, a 6-year-old KWPN gelding (Affelay X Zakilly, by Odermus) owned by

  The blackest of Friday’s to you all! And I mean that with love. You just have to check out the Black Friday deals we’ve rounded up for you, they’re positively ridiculous. All those things

Happy Thanksgiving y’all! I’ll be waking up early today to do the barn chores before immediately beginning a pie baking attack for all the gatherings that I have planned. I’m fortunate in that I have several groups
