Booklets & Guides
Not every Tidepool Musing stays a story.
Some turn into guides, workbooks, or full-sized explorations of the things I write about here—cooking, calm, creativity, and the practice of living with intention.
This is where those projects live. Each one invites you to explore, learn, or simply do something a little differently.
No Recipe, No Panic: Dinner Without a Plan
A kitchen companion for the creatively unprepared.
This guide turns “What’s for dinner?” into an adventure instead of an ordeal. Learn to cook with what you have, trust your instincts, and enjoy the freedom that comes from leaving the recipe cards in the drawer.
The Gentle Art of Face Yoga
A calm, practical guide to reconnecting with your face — and yourself.
Through simple daily exercises, mindful breathing, and a few minutes of stillness, you’ll learn how to tone, lift, and relax the muscles that hold your expressions and your tension. It’s not about perfection; it’s about presence.
Ruby and the Rainbow Unicorn
Join Ruby on a shimmering adventure filled with unicorns, giggles, courage, and color—perfect for readers who believe a little sparkle can change everything.
Dedicated to our granddaughter Ruby, whose love of unicorns inspired this adventure from the very beginning.
Building New Roads
Written for people who are functioning again—but differently—Building New Roads explores what it means to live and work after cognitive change. It focuses on access rather than loss, adaptation rather than recovery, and the quiet, practical ways competence can persist even when fluency does not.
