Biography
I enjoy gardening, using my resources wisely, composting and learning more about permaculture and how to be in better harmony with Creation.
We finally have a rental house with a small yard and a somewhat flexible landlord!  So I'm excited about what is coming for us.

I do Celtic, fantasy, folk, nature and shanty singing at Renaissance faires, fantasy festivals, pirate campouts and artisan markets in western OR and WA. Plus I do some mental health peer support specialist work which I'm state-certified for. My husband works at the grocery store, loves his videogames and is good at cooking. He enjoys learning new skills and is what we call a "social introvert", whereas I'm pretty extraverted.
We're Christians, we love playing in the water, we camp, we're politically moderate, even though we're family oriented and are close to our family we are childfree by choice.Our marriage has a nontraditional structure..
I set out to become good at gardening and permiculture pursuits, and I've made some progress and want to keep learning.

I had the privilidge of seeing this song performed by some fellow performers at one of my Renaissance Faires last summer, they're a delightful ensemble full of singers and midieval instruments.  Los Grillos Consort.

Christmastime with all the singing and lights and making merry.  I also like a day or 2 of snow and how pretty it is.  Then I want it all to be done and spring to come.  Once we've had Christmas, and New Year's, and a day or 2 of snow then I have no use for winter anymore and I'm done.  Most of the winter here is dreary and rainy.

Oh, and the way the naked trees and their skeletons stand against the backdrop of the sky, I like that too.

I don't like either, But I dislike licorice slightly less, so I'll choose it, only the red ropes though, and please not the plant itself, tried it as a kid.  Licorice also tastes a lot like absynthe, which I also don't like.

I'm sorry your Portland visit led to some sad topics.  But I could tell you were glad to come and see us all over here at your various events.
I'll have to miss this one, but I hope it goes well.  I'm glad Paul is in a position to be out and about visiting with all of us more.

We discovered and experimented with mallow in our yard this year, and we concluded we don't like it raw haha.  But cooked its fine for both my husband and I.  I like your idea of cooking it with bacon.
