  4. Mary Ann – Kitchen Keepers is a blog for sharing good memories, good stories and good recipes. I have been asked to record family recipes which have been favorites for many years, adding to their story every time they are prepared and enjoyed as well as those newcomers which have their own story. Since I believe growing and preparing your own food is not only a pleasure but an art which is worthy of passing on, I am pleased to begin. Gathering around our table has been so much more than providing physical nourishment for me. For as we gather, whatever the table shape may be, we form a circle, a place of conversation and knowing and caring. Expressing our gratitude for the provision of food and family, giving thanks for bread and baker, we enter a sacred space. .

    I spent half of Saturday with school children making fairy houses from leaves and twigs, and thought of you! I love this.

  10. Katie Boehnlein – Portland, OR – Hello! My name is Katie Boehnlein (pronounced “Bane-line”). I am a teacher and writer who is lucky enough to live in Ashland, Oregon where I am a constant explorer of both the urban and Natural. The writing you'll see on my blog "In the Midst" (www.kboehnlein.wordpress.com) is often inspired by what I experience “in the midst of life” : nature, birds, cities, cycling, travel, the change in seasons, and the occasional public transit musing. Join me in my adventures here!

    I love this idea! Spring always prompts my creative imagination 🙂

  12. Dr. Denny Wilkins – Dr. Denny Wilkins professes journalism at a small, private university in the Northeast. He has climbed, hiked, kayaked, photographed, skied, and otherwise meandered aimlessly throughout the American West for decades. He has degrees in geology, environmental studies, and communication — and has tried to make use of them as a co-founder of the progressive cultural blog ScholarsandRogues.com. He’s broadly interested in how the world works and why it works that way. He hates writing, although he does like having written well.

    Excellent, as usual.

  13. maryoconnor12 – Along the Connecticut shoreline – I am a writer, poet, community volunteer, pupil of psychology, writing instructor, guest speaker, artist, lover of nature, curious traveler and author of Life Is Full of Sweet Spots, An Exploration of Joy, as well as Dreams of a Wingless Child, a book of award-winning poetry. An advocate of the power of writing as an agent of change, I enjoy speaking to community groups about the joy of making words sing and conduct creative poetry writing workshops for inmates at the State of Connecticut’s York Correctional Institution. As a writer and a painter, I enjoy living along the Connecticut shore, where I infuse everyday observations of the natural world with the sensitivity and insightfulness that tend to define my experience of life. It is these reflections that have helped me realize that one need not look far to find an element of peace, of celebration, of joy, in this inordinate world of which we are all a part.

    I’ve had to walk over the thick, springy type of moss at times when I could not get around it — it is wonderful! Very nice photo, and the green is refreshing after a long cold winter!
