When I first heard of glacier calving, I thought, “what on earth?” I mean, what a strange term. Come to find out, it has nothing to do with livestock giving birth on a cold winter’s night. Check out this AMAZING bit of footage (4:42 minutes) but make sure you stick with it to the end so you get the “drift” of its magnitude.

“Tina Frey’s book, “Blogging for Bliss” (which I got at the library,) was very entertaining and informative. I had already started a blog using WordPress back in November 2012 and this book helped me learn how to use it better.
The topic I chose was gardening, which is an extension of my passion for helping people to find optimal health. It to me is the next step that people should be taking to insure that what they are eating is the highest quality available.

Growing your own food is of paramount importance when you look at everything that is being done to our food supply. It is scary to me and I am doing what I can to be as self-sufficient as possible and that’s what I am blogging about now.
Piper and Patch were a frolickin’.
Along the road so sweet.
When they thought they heard a cry, a baaa!
Was it their mother, the long lost sheep?

“Are you my mama?” Patch asked.
Maizy the cow was all a-bawl.
And with a little spit, she gave ’em a lick
“A new auntie” they cried, “so tall!”

“Are you my mama?” Piper asked.
“I’ll peep and peep all day!”
And with a “cheep” and a monstrous leap.
The chicken flew away.

“Now this is hopeful!” they bellowed.
As Tulip said “Hello.”
She’s big and white … but not quite right.
One bark and off they go.

But who’s this walking toward us?
“Baa, baa,” they cried!
We’ve been looking for you all day, ma ma!
And with that, they let out a sheepish sigh.
