Ming and I rearranged some stuff in the living room and created way more space. It feels good psychologically. It’s been a hard few weeks. I have a friend who is a rambler. I mean a traveler. He is passing through Sac soon, and we might get to see him, my first time meeting him… Read More »

two free tomatoes etc
Today we had to be out all day because of work on our landing and stairs. Various and wondersome things happened, while we were out, but I wasn’t able to come home to document them, so they are lost to the winds of time. Well, I gave a dollar to someone needing bus money near… Read More »

Some free okra at church.
sun art
Sun art in Berkeley–it’s been up for a long time–right by the Espresso Roma at College & Ashby.
There’s the meadow part of the farm, with shed, greenhouse, scarecrow, and Blade the cat. There’s Catharine’s House, the house we stayed at and where we ate together. There are our hosts, Pegasus and Chelsea. And here are us four, photo photoshopped by Pegasus to include all of us.

Home from the farm–pics and report tomorrow!

And I went to another support group meeting at my new clinic. This one was not as wonderful as yesterday’s, but I… Read More »
food news and support
Today we ate a lot of vegan Ethiopian food for lunch thanks to a friend who bought us some $10 restaurant.com gift certificates. I like the lentils best! Yesterday I baked some vegan peanutbutter oatmeal cookies. They are so delicious! http://www.theppk.com/2008/10/oatmeal-peanut-butter-cookies We didn’t have any tofu, so I used two flax eggs instead. Today I… Read More »
