Right now it is a time for silence here and speaking elsewhere. I do have plans for a revamped Web site at some point, so please check back occasionally.
As always, thanks for stopping by!

A time to refrain
"For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven...a time to keep silence, and a time to speak."
Right now it is a time for silence here and speaking elsewhere. I do have plans for a revamped Web site at some point, so please check back occasionally.
As always, thanks for stopping by!

Save Darfur Coalition and Sojourners.
A toolkit of resources (.pdf), including phone numbers and messages to send, is available online.

Peddler's Wagon
Generally, I would encourage people to buy nothing on this day after Thanksgiving. However, today is an exception: go on over to the Peddler's Wagon to check out (and buy!) carefully chosen products useful for the modern day homesteading way of life.
The store is a project of Path to Freedom, and the profits will be used to fund their outreach efforts, including paying the expenses of their extensive, ad-free Web site. Moreover, ten percent of the profits will be contributed directly to development and relief organizations.
If you live in the Los Angeles area, you can save on shipping costs by arranging to pick up your order.
So, enjoy browsing and buying in good conscience!

Cider pressing photos
I just uploaded photos of the annual cider pressing day at my parents' farm, where my mother's brothers and families, plus friends, spend a fun morning making cider followed by a soup lunch.
This October was the first time I've attended in many years. It was a beautiful Northwest autumn day.

Michael Pollan on food
Back in May, Michael Pollan spoke at the Los Angeles Public Library. I had a reservation to attend but needed to finish cleaning my house before a house guest arrived the next day.
The conversation can be heard online. In the far left ALOUD column, click The Omnivore's Dilemma.
Right now he's discussing the disappearance of farm land in the Central Valley of California to housing developments and the spectre of depending entirely on imported food.
