I should be beading some jewelry. But, instead I am writing this post. On my way to work today, I heard Sir Duke by Stevie Wonder on the radio. It is one of my favorite pieces from this talented singer/songwriter. Immediately, I started singing along and shaking my head, certain to look like a mad…
A Child’s Memory I don’t know about you, but I love all this stuff about space. There’s been many stories in the news lately due the the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. I was five. I remember being glued to the television set to watch something that seemed so incredible it was…

School gardens are in my blood. I’ve been continually involved in planning, planting, and caring for school gardens since 2004! Fifteen years! Wow, that is a long time! And, more remarkably, that span of time only involves two gardens! My first school garden involvement was at the elementary school where my boys attended their first…
