"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day

RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.

Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

Blueberries galore

Today I moved my first batch (ever) of wine (rhubarb) to its secondary container and I set another 1 gallon batch of blueberry wine in its primary container. Rhubarb wine tasted good but it has about 5 more months to really become a refined wine. This is a new venture for me and so far I like the science behind it and I like that I am making yet another type of consumable from scratch..I hope to have 4 - 5 types of wine available for the holidays.

I also made 12 loaves of summer squash/blueberry bread

and

I am ready to make and preserve some blueberry jam tomorrow.
