Good site, and cutting back

[helwen]

loosecanon found this site: Walden. Excellent site. I read the intro this morning and am looking forward to reading the Parts later today.

Am staying with the attempt to cut down on our non-local consumption/treading more lightly/etc. efforts, but switched to special notices only for the 90% email list. Definitely some good thoughts there, but it's taking too much of my time to keep up with the number of posts. Additionally, that means I'm using _more_ electricity instead of less, and doing more reading than doing. Was pretty much doubling my time reading/doing research :P

Having a lot to do not only around here but also having Pennsic, Crossroads at Canterbury, and Ashfield Fall Festival coming up, that's time needed elsewhere.

Ooo, forgot to mention that one of the things I did with the strawberries was make Strawberry Soup (one of the non-alcoholic versions). Tasty! And quick and easy to make, too.
