Odd as I am sure it will
appear to some, I can think of no better form of personal involvement in the
cure of the environment than that of gardening. A person who is growing a
garden, if he is growing it organically, is improving a piece of the world. He
is producing something to eat, which makes him somewhat independent of the
grocery business, but he is also enlarging, for himself, the meaning of food
and the pleasure of eating.

In October, I am
writing about all things autumnal: from art to spooky books, author interviews,
recipes, and autumn-inspired writing prompts AND participating in the Two
Pages-a-Day writing challenge.

y autumn garden
update today is wordless. And why not?
It’s raining, it’s cold, and I’d rather be writing about spooky books and fall
recipes. So enjoy these pictures of
my garden in the slow stages of demise (Bwhahahaa!) and check back to tomorrow for
a ghastly book review and some warm gingerbread.
What seeds are you saving this year?
