Two Year Old Egg Salad
“Why haven’t you gone to bed yet?” Bob scolds me from the kitchen as though I were one of the kids. I should have gone to sleep two hours ago. I’m trying to understand the price of an egg salad platter. The cafe opens on this Saturday, and I need to figure out what’s going […]
The Responsiveness Badge
Facebook has a new “responsiveness badge.” The other business owners in my entrepreneurship night class are talking about it. To earn it, page admins must respond to 90% of messages within fifteen minutes, 24 hours a day, seven days per week. I snort at the irony. We are in this class because we are independent […]

This is a delicious use of Sunday’s roasted pastured chicken leftovers. The recipe comes from my cookbook, Long Way on a Little: An earth lover’s companion for enjoying […]

After 10 years, it is time to release a new edition…but I have to finish the updates first! In order to keep to the production schedule, I need to put the blog on hold and make a push for […]
Normal: A Drama
NORMAL: ACT I, SCENE I: I don’t play the part of “normal mom” very well, nor do I play it very often. Saoirse and Ula have been trained to sleep in, to afford me as many quiet pre-dawn silent work hours as possible. If they step into my office before 7:30 in […]
