Food & Birdhouses

Last night i was invited over to Heather's for some dinner and housewarming gift(s). What a treat! They gave me a gardening magazine, seeds and a birdhouse. Heather whipped up a most delicious mexican meal and fantastico margaritas. We chatted happily for a nice bit of time. I'm so happy she is my friend. I also was supposed to meet Jeanelle for dessert... but it didnt work out. so Hi Jeanelle. Kyle sent me a poem that i am going to share. The plow has savaged this sweet field Misshapen clods of earth kicked up Rocks and twisted roots exposed to view Last year's growth demolished by the blade. I have plowed my life this way Turned over a whole history Looking for the roots of what went wrong Until my face is ravaged, furrowed, scarred. Enough. The job is done. Whatever's been uprooted, let it be Seedbed for the growing that's to come.I plowed to unearth last year's reasons-- The farmer plows to plant a greening season ~Parker Palmer
