..to let you know, I can really shake 'em down?
DO YOU LOVE ME,
DO YOU LOVE ME
NOW... THAT I... CAN DANCE??
Sorry I couldn't resist.
School is done, I have a (2nd!) diploma on my wall, and I've taken all my license exams and now I wait for an answer...
But so much has happened since I've been away, as the "green" movement has literally taken root in Toronto and it' now all the rage to grown your own, eat organic, have a farmers market. It's pretty exciting. I don't even know where to start!!
Here in Toronto a lass has taken up the mantle for gathering unwanted fruits, and I surely envy her in that I always was enamored with the American groups that also do gleaning. But now that Toronto has *enforced* the banned pesticide use bylaw with some pretty hefty fines , the time is shall we say, ripe- ha ha! They need lots of help this time of year, so if you can give her a hand, please do!
17 Farmers markets have sprung up in every neighborhood, so much that there weren't enough farmers to go around ( or can't participate- that's another story)
There's also a lady that has 3 chickens in her yard-illegally! That's right, in Toronto galliformes are classified as farmstock and as such are prohibited. But let me tell you- they're the pet that gives- and you don't have to pick up their poo. She's keeping her real identity under wraps, and I'm intrigued by the challenge to locate her on my own ( but I won't reveal it if I do!)
What's that you say? How's my balcony? Oh it's fine, I have lots to tell you, right after I come back from a very much needed week long vacation on a lake up north.
Talk soon,
TBF
