		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a White crowned sparrow who has nested in the vegetable garden. She&#8217;s picked a spot in the oregano of all places, a nifty well-made nest with four tiny eggs. Of course, every time I walk into the garden she has to leave the nest. She flies to the top of a fence pole and <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/memorial-day'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have an idea for a TV show that I would star in called, &#8220;The World&#8217;s Worst Carpenter.&#8221; It would be R rated because while I&#8217;m doing carpentry I curse continuously, berate myself, say un-self-congratulatory things as I note the inevitable continuum of mistakes. Plus, I talk out loud in an ongoing color (blue) commentary <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/studies-in-self-reliance'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Making compost isn&#8217;t really so complicated. If you collect some green stuff and brown stuff and put in a pile it will eventually metamorphose into humus (finished compost). It&#8217;s magical.
Take your vegetable kitchen scraps, coffee grounds and fireplace ash and combine them in a pile with leaves, grass and other plant material and eventually, even <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/lazy-compost'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The centerpiece of my transition plan is food. If our economic debacle gets even worse, if gas prices rise tremendously, food will be our biggest concern. Everything we can do to produce food locally will be crucial. So, for me the garden is where I&#8217;m putting my energy.
I can&#8217;t decide which phase of the garden <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/may-garden-tour'>[...]</a>]]></description>

Lots of work in the garden, new bees to feed and then there&#8217;s that fence on steroids that&#8217;s happening in front of our house.

Susan Chidester led a small group in a home kitchen on making bread and pizza dough and mozzarella while they were waiting for the dough to rise.

This is the case of the nuclear disaster at Fukushima, Japan where the entire Northern Hemisphere faces a catastrophe. It&#8217;s one of those situations that makes you feel quite helpless to prepare.

I missed it when it played in Bellingham last year. The Mt. Baker Beekeepers Association often had a volunteer member introduce the film.
