Oh thank you Elisabeth! -- was just looking at your cook books the other day, and think of your son's complaints every time I default to eggs & potatoes for dinner.

I really love this one, Charlotte. So much of what you describe is happening in other places. Here's to the wonderful Gary Snyder.

Studying with, and hanging out with Gary was the best part of my MA at UC Davis. He's as lovely as you'd hope ...

Sorry to read about your cat but, when it's time it's time. And I love the Gary Snyder quote, I'm going to use that. I must read more of him. Thank you. Good piece.

The poems are all marvelous, and Practice of the Wild remains a touchstone book for me.
