Ten years ago today, Serendipity Farmhouse became the house of our realities. That was when we signed the papers that finalized the purchase. Our post SFH Anniversary & Birthday tells you a little about that day.

Since early in 2018, this blog has chronicled the living history of this old farmhouse. We have shown you the important, the serious, the sad, and sometimes the hilarious events that take place here. Occasionally, we show you what this farmhouse was like before it became Serendipity. We make sure that we don’t candy coat or cover up what living here is like. But, most of all, we show you that Serendipity Farmhouse has a history with a heart.

Those before us have modernized, renovated, and built additions. Some worked hard to restore the original charm of this old farmhouse. We have made repairs, and worked to make the kitchen a comfortable place to create and experiment.

This day is special for us in many ways. Certainly the SFH anniversary is important. But today is also the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe and it is the birthday of one of our beautiful granddaughters.

A farmhouse anniversary is something we can celebrate. A granddaughter is someone we can love and her birthday is something we can cherish.

This year, we’ve worked hard to add a new dimension to our Serendipity Farmhouse chronicles. Now you can see Chef Blondie in her recently renovated kitchen, testing simple farmhouse dishes created by Jacques Pepin and other fine chefs. You can also watch as Mr. Monte takes us on fantastic camping trips in his Class-C RV El Camino Del Monte.
