Almost a new moon

Although the new moon is almost here and I am looking forward to planting some seeds I love this picture from the full moon a few weeks ago.

Nourishing Traditions

I've thought a lot about food and worked on eating what is best for me but I took an amazing workshop this weekend that fed me some great new information. Cathy Hope, an herbalist from Questa, NM, bases her philosophy on Weston Price and Sally Fallon. Sally wrote a book called Nourishing Traditions which explains where we all went wrong with thinking about what we eat. Anyway, check it out. Here we made some tinctures, salves and and liniments and also some fermented food. It's essential!

Tucson Gem and Mineral Show

The Gem and Mineral Show in Tucson was a mindblower. It would almost be impossible to see all of the exhibits during this two week event. The exhibitors are literally from all over the world. The USA spelled out in Calcite is from some Moroccans. We saw some amazing rocks and had a great time in the Sonoran desert.
