My Daughter's Art

By -
My daughter, the Creative Genius, is busy "creating" (go figure). We have partnered to promote and sell her artwork via Etsy. Some of the descriptions of her pieces are an art form in themselves. I encourage you to visit her (our) shop and look around. Who knows, you may want to buy something...! Enjoy!

The rains finally came yesterday. About time for Fall to finally show its face around here...! Temps have decreased into the 70s, which is where we need to be right now. Nights are getting longer, daytime starts later, skies appear grayer. This is my kind of weather--the kind one can stay indoors without feeling any guilt. Fall colors, the anticipation of the Holidays! Smells of home cooking in the air: cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, hot apple cider! Apple pie, spice cookies, hot chocolate and caramel corn. Pumpkins all over the place, trick-or-treaters at your door. And then, the smell of pine trees in the house; the family gatherings, the Christmas lights; the yule logs, the gift exchanges... This is definitely my most favorite time of the year! This season I vow to let go of all my resentments, all my peeves, all my ill-will. I'm tired of feeling beaten down. I'll be tolerant of the nasty political ads on TV (November elections coming up--ugh!). I'll let go of my pes

Double Bee Farm's planting party

Planting party in Conyers, GA! What a great thing to be a part of; sustainable community agriculture. And the sort of volunteering experience that seems more like a holiday. My parents out that way purchase stuff from them all the time - everything from goat cheese logs to shitaake mushroom spore-treated logs, to a large variety of vegetables, baked goods - you can even buy your own herd of African Pygmy Goats from these folks! Mysteriously enough, they don't seem to have a website, but they can be followed on twitter: @ doublebeefarm I just wanted to give everyone an update about the Planting Party Sunday. It is still on rain or shine. We plan to start as early as your can make it. I will be working from dawn till done…. We are going to transplant, plant garlic and even seed some beds. We do need all the help we can get. It only takes about 20 minuets to transplant a flat but we got 20 flats + 45lbs of garlic, onions and lots of seeds. Our addres

Recently encountered this, which has given me pause. http://www.justmeans.com/A-Renewable-Energy-Teaching-Moment/31523.html Now, from what I understand about it, and from other sources I've seen, the DU issue splits along two lines: 1) those who have data, belief, testimonial, & anecdotal evidence that DU is toxic, pervasive, and a scourge on the planet. These maintain that those who use it in bullets (read: America) are callous, thoughtless criminals who will bear the responsibility of destroying a large swath of life over coming generations. 2) those who have data, belief, testimonial & anecdotal evidence that DU is "no big deal", no more harmful or radioactive than what your driveway contains and puts out on any given day. Now, for some background data, A primer on the issues at hand, as derived from this particular source: http://www.justmeans.com/editorials?action=readeditorial&p=30551 "Of course, when citizens here can consider the harsh realities
