We’ve finally finished moving. This is our house in upstate NY - we’ve named it @sugarfoxhill in honor of the fox family that has a den in the ravine and entertain themselves frequently in the old sugar shack. It’s not a farmhouse, and it’s not all black (yet), but it is an 1870s home that overlooks the Hudson River. The narrow lane it sits on is named after the riverboat captain that lived here with his family. (They left good vibes - “not scary spooky old house feels” per my kids’ descriptions.) After so many years, it’s so nice to finally have a place to call home.
Alternate caption: here’s my wild porch weekend drinking gin and watching the sun set across the river.
Issue 3 of @fieldfarepress available now!! Here’s a flip through my copy in the nook — the best reading spot in the house. (Hashtag I know this much is true 😉) The link to order is in my bio or you can check the Fieldfare IG shop.

I joined the half-century club last week and was lucky enough to get away from reality for a bit and celebrate with friends at the Farmhouse @junefarms . Def recommend for any group gathering and def recommend making your friends do all the work 😘♥️🥂🎂🤠

New year, new view of the Hudson. Or alternate caption: new year, new way to annoy your neighbors.
Either way, I’m in full-on hibernation mode and have no motivational words, list of accomplishments, or goals for ya—my only wish for this year is to not read a ChatGPT caption ever again. I know, high hopes…..
#angrychristmaswishes has been said many times and in many ways, but the sentiment remains the same: Insert a heartfelt and humorous seasonal geeeting here 😘
But fr, I am hoping you have a day without stress, with lots of carbs, and have the people and things you need in your life.
Cheers my friends!
Mendy xx 🥂🎄✨♥️
Now get back to watching Stranger Things.
Look at us, making our first holiday advert! (Filming, editing, acting, hand modeling—we do it all in this 2 person biz) It’s #shopsmallsaturday, so we’re having a big sale—all of our @fieldfarepress print bundles are 40% off this next week!
We think Fieldfare makes a great gift for the brown paper package lovers, for the ones that still believe in pen and ink, for the readers, the note writers, and the armchair travelers. For friends near and far, and for yourself 📚♥️🎁

Today is the official start to the holiday season, one that we at @martonanddavis has been prepping for since September(!). We got together with our friend @angrybaker to capture the holiday vibe, and just for fun, added a little snow with AI. Which is your fave?
To get a look INSIDE our winter wonderland, join us at the shop over the long holiday weekend. Sunday’s Holiday Social event is going to be pretty incredible- @mgamwell , @damsel_garden , and @tuetal.co are joining in and the 🍾 will be flowing. (And thank you to @sarahbassine and @mattlester212 for lending us Ladybug!!❤️) #sharingaworldofshops

A cold day in Skaneateles that hovered between autumn and winter. It’s pronounced “skinny atlas” which is fun to say and amuses me greatly.
I have a list of highlights for you (bc I ducking hate text overlays on pics):
1. Lunch @gildasskan , which I strangely did not get a photo of, but was fantastic ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
2. @patisserieskaneateles – the stretch bread OMG
3. a walk by @sherwood1807 and the lake (def gonna eat there next time)
4. @thelocalbranch – got myself a belt and a ball cap with a blinged out tiger that I’m considering making my signature look
5. @skaneateles300 – so many pretty things to 💸
6. @seaculturebrand – bc menswear is always my Homer gift to cal (IYKYK)
We def need to go back in the summer bc obvi need to take a dip in the cleanest lake in the U.S.
Nobody:
Me: posts favorite October pics from over the years bc it’s the last possible day to squeeze them in
(You also didn’t ask, but I’ve been dealing with chronic illness and that’s why I only have old pics, and you mostly see me in day pjs in my nook. Here’s to hoping I can get out more soon 🤞🏼🤞🏼)
I’m a proud garden-loving cliché. Full stop. And I wrote all about it in @fieldfarepress , a print journal that I co-founded with @skyeoneill .
Our fifth issue is coming out really soon, and if you like this garden, you’re gonna like this issue. It’s chockfull of beautiful imagery and thoughtful words from contributors that consider connection, creativity, and the places that transform us. It can be kept, reread, and there’s no scrolling required. [Insert humble brag about the quality of our paper stock here]
You can pre-order Issue 5:Flourishing at the link in my bio.
HOT TIP: THERE’S A 10% DISCOUNT IF YOU ORDER BEFORE 23 OCTOBER
