A New Journey Begins

A title is more than a name—it’s an invitation, like stepping onto a pier at dawn or into a kitchen with a stove hard at work. With that in mind, I’m thrilled to introduce the new title of this space: Of Tides & Thyme.

The choice feels inevitable, like waves embracing a weathered shoreline. Tides speaks to the rhythm of change—the eternal cycle of rise and retreat, the shaping of shores and souls, the promise of distant horizons and places still unexplored. Thyme, with its earthy, unassuming fragrance, brings us home: stripping the leaves off of the stalk; a braise gently simmering in the oven, perfuming the house; the comfort of what is shared and savored. Together, these words form a tapestry—a meditation on motion and stillness, the dance of life’s fleeting moments and its enduring gifts.

This new title beckons us to chart life’s coastline, to wander its windswept edges and discover new meanings in familiar tides. Whether our journeys are physical—toward unseen capes—or inward, seeking truth in silence, we are reminded to embrace each moment for its singular essence: fleeting as a sea breeze, fragrant as thyme warmed by the sun, and alive with quiet possibility.

Raise your glass with me—to tides, to thyme, and to the stories we craft at their meeting. Let Of Tides & Thyme shine as a lighthouse towards the next chapter of discovery, with curiosity in our sails, meals spiced with adventure, and gratitude in our hearts.

Here’s to new beginnings and to what's past the known horizon.
