| At two days, already striking an adult pose. |
I guess I need to explain why I've been absent for so long. I've signed with a publisher to write my urban foraging book. I can't tell you how excited I am about getting this book out! My first deliverable is due in May, so I've been doing a lot of writing, just not here in my blog pages.
Also, Spring and all its activities are full upon us right now. All 3 of our goats were bred in the fall, so we just had 7 (adorable!!!) kids added to our back yard in the last couple weeks.

Our silver lace wyandotte chicks are almost to pullet size, so we'll be introducing them to our partridge rock and auracana hens soon.

I am teaching my urban foraging classes through
Seattle Tilth now and have been busy teaching classes on the side as well.
So, please forgive my absence here. I will probably not be back, at least not entirely, until August (at which time I hope to complete the first draft of the book.) But please do stay tuned. There's so much more I'd like to share with you about this unusual, delightful lifestyle we've somehow gradually adopted!

Your book deal is great news.
Write it like a script so it transitions easily to the screen...Emma Thompson as you in "Much Ado About Weeds"
ha! Actually saving my shot at the movies for the memoir. This book is a guidebook/cookbook, so not a lot of personal anecdote. But maybe a little. The next one is also nonmemoir/nonfiction. But the THIRD one, well the third one will be the book I've wanted to write for 30 years now - the memoir cum movie ; ) Gotta think big!
I want to take an urban foraging class so badly- although it doesn't have to be urban for us, we're rural but I work in town. I've asked our conservation dept to sponsor one in the past. If you do some sort of tour, think about Missouri! Rockwoods Reservation is in far St Louis county and would be perfect or perhaps at the Powder Valley Nature center.
