My first box of produce from Glacier Valley Farm CSA is cause to celebrate — not just good food, but also the connection that comes from supporting local farmers. Thank you, farmers of Mat-Su.

Buddha in the coffee shop
My Side Street Saturday included an encounter with a handcarved Vietnamese Buddha of white-grey marble, which its owner hopes to sell as a fundraiser for Veterans for Peace. A little about Job, integrity, cold, & low atmospheric pressure, too.

A real post, for once, because I need to rant
A "problems in my apartment and at my apartment complex" rant.
Four days after the Oscars, & I still don’t know who won
