Hi all--I always feel sort of silly introducing myself, like you can say anything that tells anyone who you are in a few sentences! Except, of course, I am a farmgirl. 
I live on about an acre with the hubster and the stepspawn--The Mad Scientist is almost 16, and the Drama Princess is 12 and a HALF. We also have three cats and a mess of egg laying chickens.
We grow lots of vegetables, herbs, flowers, and some fruit; also lots of weeds, most of which I enjoy almost as much as the cultivated things. When I'm not gardening I'm writing, knitting, or reading, usually. And I noticed someone else, in her intro, said she loved dirt. Me TOO! Fascinating. SO FASCINATING.
Looking forward to getting to know all of you! Thanks for having me. 
Michelle

Hey Dianne, I had a coworker who was originally from Roseburg back when I worked in an office, and we're still in touch! I haven't been down that way yet though. 34 acres AND the family land, that is really awesome!

Welcome, Michelle; my DH and I live on 34 acres out in the sticks west of Roseburg. I grew up here and am so blessed to live on the same property my parents purchased back in 1956 when I was only a toddler; not the same house though I can still see it through the trees.

Hey Kris, Amy, Fiddlehead! THanks for the warm welcome.
You know Kris, my naturopath and I were talking about how our culture doesn't really teach it's children how to eat, and there's so much that's not nourishing available, and we treat food like a conveninence--or more often, an INconvenience--and we're seeing the results of that . . . crazy. And it's sometimes really difficult to view feeding ourselves with gratitude and making it a priority . . . I'm still trying to learn! Some day I'll get there. Thanks for visiting the blog!
Fiddlehead I was in Wisconsin in January once. All I can say is brrrrrrrrr. And I'm originally from Northern Michigan.
Amy Grace, I lived in Portland for a year and a bit, and there were many lovely things about it. Now I live out in the sticks halfway between Portland and the Coast, and I like it even BETTER, though I do miss all the tattoos and piercings on everyone in town!

Hey Michelle. Welcome from Georgia. I just went to your blog and you are doing what I have been realizing myself lately. About health and eating right. I have not been feeling well lately. I am 52 now. I have not been eating the best of foods. I go on spurts of eating healthy then get off that road and back to my bad ways. Then I start feeling bad. I do not eat processed foods. Anyway, I hope to read more about your food adventures. And I tootally agree about the chicken broth.

Happy to be a "Raggedy Ann" in a Barbie World!
I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.
