Link and Learn: Wood-stove buns, alfalfa sprouts, do-it-yourself

Maybe there’s no such thing as a free lunch but link up with Theresa at Pondering the Myriad Things and you’ll see one that’s pretty darn close.

Isn’t it amazing how many talents are found in human beans? We’re such a creative bunch, aren’t we?

I bet in even a small community you would soon find people who know how to bake (really well, like Theresa - among other things), sew, sing songs, play instruments, turn scrap lumber into 101 useful items, teach useful skills, produce a healthy garden, nurture strong families, paint pictures or -if absolutely necessary - stippled ceilings.

The list would on and on.

Scroll down Theresa’s posts, read about alfalfa sprouts and soon you’ll be producing and eating your own salads.

Though circumstances can challenge villages, towns and cities, confident and creative people will keep them vibrant.

Cheers. GAH

Well this is really nice :) Thanks! I am learning, little by little, to do some of these things, and I am certainly enjoying myself along the way. And the doing of things helps keep my pessimism at bay, mostly!

Busy hands build confidence. Nice tonic to pessimistic times.
