    I am looking forward to dinner tonight - my husband's jerk tofu with brown rice and spinach! Yum.  Last night was brown stewed shitake mushrooms with roasted yams. Yum again!! If you've never tried these, you must.

    Last week while in Grapevine, TX, I was a part of a group that toured the LEED certified Gaylord Texan Hotel property and learned about their process to become certified. What an awesome experience!

    This is it - the last day of the Drawdown Eco Challenge.  It has been fun, challenging and inspirational.  I am very proud of BOTH ALA Chapters who participated in this challenge.  Kudos to all of you. Can't wait to share our collective impact.  Go ALA!

    I thought this challenge went great, i've learned so much about soil, carbon emission and shocked that 3 billion people are still cooking using open  fire.

    Learning about the quality of food you buy and serve to your family is so important for the well being of those you love and care for.
