The Inland Northwest Permaculture Guild is a network of permaculture practitioners who inhabit a region of the northwestern U.S. between the Cascade Mountain Range and the Rocky Mountain Range. We host annual gatherings and operate this interactive website to facilitate communication among Guild members and between the Guild and the greater community to inform ourselves and others about the promise of permaculture.

This very first North American Permaculture Convergence offers a special opportunity to meet up to 1,000 permaculture movers and shakers from across North America to share our successes and strategize how to create a permaculture future.
People will have different reasons for attending NAPC. For me, I view NAPC as a tremendous networking opportunity to meet permaculture movers and shakers from across the continent. As one of the permaculture movement's historians I am also excited to use NAPC as an opportunity to collect more permaculture history.
The permaculture movement in North America is huge and growing fast!
The following list gives you an idea who the NAPC is inviting:
The following incomplete list gives you some idea of permaculture's scope in North America. This is just the beginning of a North American Permaculture Directory that Michael Pilarski is working on which will be expanded at the NAPC with everyone's help. The eventual directory will be much expanded from what you see here and will include city, website, contact info, and names of people involved. Inclusion in the following list is not meant to be an endorsement, nor is absence meant to be a slight. This is just what I could pull together at the moment.

Stores try to make holiday shopping cheap and easy
NEW YORK (AP) â¿¿ This holiday season, Burger King won't be the only place where you can have it your way.It used to be enough for stores to promise discounts of up to 70 percent to lure shoppers during the busy holiday period. But the ease of ordering online and the sluggish economy changed that. Americans are no longer impressed by discounts alone. Now they want their shopping just like their fast food: not only cheap, but convenient too. That means they're no longer afraid to walk away from the cashmere sweater with the perfect fit if the store is crowded. They're unwilling to buy those suede pumps in just the right shade of blue if shipping costs extra. And they cringe at the prospect of carrying around paper coupons; they'd rather pull them up electronically on smartphones. Retailers from Wal-Mart to Macy's are doing everything they can to make it easier for more finicky shoppers to spend during the holidays. Several are opening on Thanksgiving Day. Some are offering free layaway and shipping. Many are matching in-store prices with cheaper online deals. Others are allowing shoppers to buy online and pick up their merchandise in stores. ___ Economy makes for tougher Thanksgiving journeys CHICAGO (AP) â¿¿ Millions of Americans piled their families into cars, hopped on buses and waited out delays at airports Wednesday as they set off on Thanksgiving treks that many said required financial sacrifice, help from relatives to come up with airfare and hours searching online for deals. Accepting that the road out of the recession will be long, many said they've become savvier or at least hardier travelers â¿¿ resilient enough to brave a daylong drive with the kids or a long haul by bus instead of flying. Others adjusted their travel schedules to try to save money, flying on less popular days or to airports that were a bit farther from their destination.

Podium lensman Colin Kennedy recently wrapped up a Firsthand episode for Fuel TV that stars DVS rider Chico Brenes. The half hour documentary takes a modern look at Chico Brenes' life and chronicles a trip with him to his native country of Nicaragua.
Chico along with friends Joey Brezinski, Rob Gonzalez, Danny Montoya, and Luis Tolentino took a two-week trip to Nicaragua to get the footage for the show.
"I've been on skate trips all around the world," says Kennedy. "I've been everywhere from Europe to Africa, but filming for this show in Nicaragua was the best trip I've ever been on. Chico was an amazing tour guide."
Chico Brenes' Firsthand episode airs Sunday at 8pm on Fuel TV with air times continuing throughout the week. Check your local listings for additional details.

|32.8. Then He made his reproduction dependent upon an extraction of humble fluid;
ثُمَّ جَعَلَ نَسْلَهُ مِن سُلَالَةٍ مِّن مَّاء مَّهِينٍ
8. Then He made his reproduction dependent upon an extraction of humble fluid;5
5. The noted scientist, Maurice Bucaille, comments on this verse:
The Arabic word, translated here by the word 'quintessence (extraction),' is sulālāh. It signifies 'something which is extracted, the issue of something else, or the best part of a thing.' In whatever way it is translated, it refers to a part of a whole.
The fertilization of the egg and reproduction are produced by a cell that is very elongated: its dimensions are measured in ten thousandths of a millimeter. In normal conditions (it is estimated that in one cubic centiliters of sperm, there are 25 million spermatozoon that, under normal conditions, have an ejaculation of several cubic centimeters), only one single cell among several tens of millions produced by a man will actually penetrate the ovule; a large number of them are left behind and never complete the journey that leads from the vagina to the ovule, passing through the uterus and Fallopian tubes. It is therefore an infinitesimally small part of the extract from a liquid whose composition is highly complex that actually fulfills its function.
In consequence, it is difficult not to be struck by the agreement between the text of the Qur'ān and the scientific knowledge we possess today of these phenomena (The Bible, the Qur'an and Science).

When you say, "I love you" to your child on Valentine's Day or any other day of the year, it is wonderful. Your child feels assured that you care. Parents often fail to use these words either because they take it for granted that the child knows, or in their own experience as children, their parents never said it to them. But, children have a strong need to hear, "I love you." As adults, many people continue to feel bad that they never heard these words from their parents when they were growing up. There are other important steps you need to take to communicate your love.
1. Make sure to spend time alone with your child every day, even if it is just sitting down for a few minutes to catch up at the end of the day. When you ask a child, "Tell me about your day," you show interest in her. If you play a game of Candyland with her before bedtime, you convey that you enjoy being with her and that she is valuable to you. To a child, time = attention = love.

Behavior at Polls up for Discussion
Submitted: 10/23/2012
- Wisconsin state elections officials are scheduled to discuss what is allowable behavior at the polls.
That's following complaints from the Republican Party of Wisconsin and others about what happened during the June recalls and recently enacted policies.
The Government Accountability Board was scheduled to discuss the issue at its meeting today.
Some of the concerns involve what documents voters can show to prove their residence when registering at the polls and where election observers can stand.
The discussion comes in light of what the board says are several requests from organizations seeking permission to approve voters and verify whether they are registered or direct them to the correct voting line or other polling place.

Incredible hooked and unhooked Freestyle and Surf Performance! The 4 strut Razor offers riders explosive power, ultra aggressive feel and the most power per square meter of any kite in our line up. The Razor sits deep for continued pull through transitions and down wind, built for twin tip riders who like to ride lit up and surfers who like to charge the line hooked in. FST Wingtip Technology adds even better bar feedback, steering control and wind range to this year's Razor. All 2012 kites fly perfectly with any of our 3 bars, Freeride, Fusion or Freestyle and all kites feature our unique Direct De-power System, designed to fully roll over and disable your kite in the event of an eject or total depower.
This may sound odd, but when you look up at as many kites as we do, the first thing we all thought when we put the Razor up in the sky was how neat, tidy and good it looked shape-wise in the sky. In athletics you get all different types of athletes ? from the skinny, lanky long distance runners to the mega muscled, powerful sprinters. The Razor is more like a 400 metre runner ? well balanced in terms of profile and shape, it is able to run with the best of them over most distances. On close inspection you'll notice the protruding FST (forward swept) tips. The idea of these is to increase the size of the wing-tips for increased turning response and to move the tow point forward for greater wind range and depower, without affecting the aspect-ratio of the kite, so you still get a forward punching experience.
There's a fair bit of depth to the canopy and the Razor has lots of grunt down at the bar. The range is huge on the Fusion freeride bar (that we used) with under-the-bar trimming system. Sheet out and the kite depowers virtually 100%, sheet in and bang, there are a lot of beans to get you up and going and to play with. (Ocean Rodeo actually offer three different bar options, including the Freestyle bar with above-the-bar trim for those that prefer it, but does reduce some of the vast depowerability). You'll notice the unusual horn shape of the Fusion bar ? remember it's made by Ocean 'Rodeo' ? took us a while to figure that one out. You don't really notice any funky feeling at the bar, but it's shape seems to make sense, encouraging your hands into the middle of the bar, where they should be. The bar is very grippy and there's a self-righting system on the chicken-loop for when you're unhooked. One thing that needs mentioning is that the quick release activates very easily, but unless there's a demanding pull from the kite, the line doesn't tend to slide through super easily, at least on this new model. When the shit is hitting the fan though, the line activates and slides through up the safety line, rolling the kite onto its back. On the subject of when the kite's down, the Razor has a beautiful water relaunch, popping back up in seconds.
Performance-wise this kite is about as uncomplicated as it gets. As we said, there's power on tap and with one or two strokes you're up and away and can let the kite sit there, trimming as you need at the bar. But there's also a lovely manoeuvrability and balance in the Razor. Jumping-wise it doesn't take you on a mission to the moon, but does have a lovely combination of altitude, speed and distance and is simple to use by sending the kite over your head and pulling down on the bar. Unhooked it's very able, although you do have to trim it down quite a lot to get it set right ? as the kite has so much range, when you sheet in you affect the kite a lot, so to stop it flaring too much, you need to trim it. But it really does do everything well and you always feel a good connection with what the kite is doing. Off the hook there's plenty of pop and the Razor doesn't race out of the power but provides a good, steady pull when trimmed correctly. When you stuff up a trick it just sits patiently in the water waiting for you to get back to the bar and pops back up in an instant.
Ocean Rodeo are punting this as a freestyle wave kite. For freeride and freestyle it's more than capable. We didn't get to try it in waves, but the tunability of the kite, fast turns and depower would make it very useful.
The Razor is a super kite for all-round riding techniques. Quick agile and responsive, there's nothing sloppy in its handling, you can put the kite where you want it, when you want it and it's all very pleasant. Kite loops aren't too pivotal and you get a good tug, so it definitely ticks a lot of boxes for the rider that likes to do a bit of everything.
Sporty, good looks and high-energy performance for all riding styles.
The quick-release leash line is just a bit sticky under light load fresh out of the packet.

Oscar-nominated film shows need for prison healthcare
By Bruce Reilly on March 27, 2014
If there is one thing a documentary film should strive for, it is exposing people to a little-known aspect of life. This is precisely what filmmaker Edgar Barens has done with his Oscar nominated film, "Prison Terminal: The Last Days of Private Jack Hall." It premieres on HBO, on March 31st, and is poised to […]

Cranston residents suing because prison 'residents' dilute political power
By Bruce Reilly on February 19, 2014
Today marks the announcement that Cranston residents are filing suit because their voting rights are being violated. Cranston! You might be wondering: "Where do these lawsuits come from?"

Andres Idarraga's and the prison-to-school pipeline

Open Letter to Gov. Chafee: Sign "Ban the Box"
By Bruce Reilly on June 29, 2013
Yesterday, mere hours before the House passed "Ban the Box" (5507A) by a 62-3 vote, I spoke with a friend who had been told by a temp agency he is "toxic," and they could never hire him. I said this wasn't a good case for litigation under federal law. He didn't care about suing anyone; he was just feeling down about his job search. Unlike most of the 2014 college graduates (with dual degree Honors) my friend has a criminal record from age 16.

The Best (and Worst) Dressed Men at the 2010 Golden Globes
From umbrella-covered disaster to award-winning makeover, get the bottom line on red-carpet style and learn about black-tie style while you're at it
UPDATE: The 2012 Golden Globe Red-Carpet Fashion Awards, Live >>
By The Fashion Editors
The "Trying Just Hard Enough" Award: (Tie) Jeff Bridges and Morgan Freeman
If you must, however, try the black-on-black-on-black approach, try it the way the Crazy Heart star (and big winner) did on Sunday. Any dude can abide in style with that kind of pocket square, too. But tailor the same-color look like Freeman, so you can see the layers and not sloppy "hybrid" bullshit — especially if you've got salt and pepper up top.

V-Drums® Portable
TD-4KP: V-Drums® Portable
Innovative Design for Maximum Mobility
Featuring a small footprint and an innovative folding design for fast breakdown and easy transport/storage, the TD-4KP V-Drums Portable is the ultimate e-kit for mobile drumming and small spaces. The powerful TD-4 sound module is equipped with a wide range of expressive, editable sounds and essential practice features, while the integrated pads provide a satisfying feel and natural playability. Perfect for small venues, rehearsals, lesson studios, bedrooms, apartments, and more, the TD-4KP combines V-Drums performance and features with impressive mobility and stow-away convenience.
- Renowned V-Drums sound and quality in an ultra-portable mobile kit
- Innovative folding design for quick, compact breakdown and easy transport/storage
- Includes TD-4 Percussion Sound Module, loaded with expressive sounds, Coach and Quick Record/Play functions, and more
- Eight pads total: kick, snare, toms x3, hi-hat, crash and ride cymbals; FD-8 Hi-Hat Controller included; kick pedal and drum throne not included

- Options: custom carrying case (CB-TDP); mesh-head snare pad (PDX-6/-8); pad mount (MDH-12); drum accessory package (DAP-3X); drum mat (TDM series)
Fold Up and Go
The TD-4KP is truly portable, with an innovative fold-up stand design that transforms the kit into a surprisingly condensed size for transport and storage. Breakdown is a snap—the sound module and drum/cymbal pads are attached to the durable, integrated stand, and all components rotate and/or fold down quickly and easily in place along with the stand. When you want to play again, simply unfold everything and adjust the pad positions, and then you're ready to roll!
Natural-Feel Pads for Expressive Playing
The TD-4KP comes with a kick pad, snare pad*, three tom pads, a hi-hat pad, and two 10-inch cymbal pads (crash and ride). An FD-8 Hi-Hat Controller pedal is included as well. Outfitted with cushioned-rubber playing surfaces, the compact 7.5-inch drum pads provide a sensitive, accurate response and natural playing feel.
*An optional PDX-6 / PDX-8 V-Pad is required to play rimshots and cross stick.
TD-4 Percussion Sound Module
A wide range of expressive drum and percussion tones are provided with the included TD-4 sound module. Sounds can be easily edited, allowing players to quickly customize their kits. The TD-4 also features ambience effects for lively, dynamic performances. Built-in Coach and Quick Record/Quick Play functions are ideal for effective practice, providing drummers with valuable feedback for rapid improvement.
Custom Carrying Case and More
An optional CB-TDP Carrying Case provides a convenient way to transport and protect the TD-4KP. The custom-designed case is a perfect complement to the V-Drums Portable, and includes a shoulder strap and detachable pouches for hi-hat and kick pedals, plus handy pockets for beaters, sticks, and other accessories. Users can also swap out the snare pad with an optional PDX-6 or PDX-8 V-Pad and MDH-12 Pad Mount for a true mesh-head feel and dual-triggering capability.

Isamu Noguchi, Red Cube, 1968
There are some New York artists whose New Yorkness you sense right on the surface – Stieglitz, Gottlieb – and there are others where the New Yorkness sits a bit further below. Isamu Noguchi is one of these. He never gets enough credit for his involvement in the Greenwich Village scene (his studio was in MacDougal Alley, the same as Pollock), or his set designs for Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham. But there is, at least, the corrective of the Noguchi Museum out in Long Island City: one of those institutions that art worlders always claim to love and then never visit.
Red Cube (bright red, even brighter than the Di Suvero across Broadway in Zuccotti Park) isn't a cube but a parallelepiped. It doesn't even resolve into a cube by some trick of perception; it's longer than it is wide, and that's that. If you look through the hole on the northwest face, you get an edited view of 140 Broadway, now the headquarters of Brown Brothers Harriman – another work of Gordon Bunshaft and the folks at SOM. When it first opened in 1968, Ada Louise Huxtable wrote in the Times:
The scale of the buildings, the use of open space, the views revealed or suggested, the contrasts of architectural style and material, of sculptured stone against satin-smooth metal and glass, the visible change and continuity of New York's remarkable skyscraper history, the brilliant accent of the poised Noguchi cube – color, size, style, mass, space, light, dark, solids, voids, highs and lows – all are just right. These few blocks provide (why equivocate?) one of the most magnificent examples of 20th-century urbanism anywhere in the world.
But Huxtable concluded her review on a weary note: "What next? Probably destruction." The balance between 140 Broadway, the Chase building, and the old Chamber of Commerce couldn't be maintained for long; some schmuck was always going to beat the zoning laws and ruin the neighborhood. That's indeed what happened, though it was harder to predict that the descendants of Harry Helmsley (Leona? not Leona?), who built 140 Broadway, would install a massive plaque the size of a catafalque right outside the building, making Noguchi's balanced cube seem even more precarious.
Red Cube is outside 140 Broadway, between Cedar and Liberty streets.

thanks so much for visiting.
I have to tell you. This part of the blog is the hardest for me. I am not very good at writing about myself.
So. I think I will leave this page to grow as I grow. If you want, check in now and again.
I was born in Budapest and spent most of my formative years in Australia and Los Angeles. I now live in New Orleans. My work as a photographer is constantly changing. I learn after each shoot. I love the process. I work hard for each session, and then when I lift the camera I let it all go. In these moments I really feel like anything is possible. To witness and capture something real.
I am also a mama. My son, Linus is 3. Here is a short video that we made together this month for Kevin's birthday.

A literary icon sometimes seen as a bridge between the Beat Generation and the hippies, Ken Kesey scored an unexpected hit with his first novel, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. His successful follow-up, Sometimes a Great Notion, was also transformed into a major motion picture, directed by and starring Paul Newman.
Oregon's Stamper family does what it can to survive a bitter strike dividing their tiny logging community. And as tensions rise, delicate family bonds begin to fray and unravel.
©1963, 1964 Ken Kesey (P)2010 Recorded Books, LLC
Say something about yourself!
"My Favorite Book"
If you liked The Count of Monte Christo, Atlas Shrugged, East of Eden, or On the Road you will love this book because it finishes the thought that these books started, but with more humanity, humor and complexity.
"A great book in print brought to life"
Strong Northwest tale
Hank. He was the hero but also an antihero. Kesey brought out his inner thoughts and
downplayed the obvious, i.e. the outer action. He was capable of great love, for his
father, Viv, and Joe Ben but had some trouble expressing this love.
The Road. No Country for Old Men. All of them have been well done but
the narrator had more voices in this novel and did all of them extremely well.
Joe Ben. He was the guy we'd all like to have as a friend. Irrepressible joy and
boundless energy. He wouldn't hurt anyone on purpose. A man who lived his
deep faith but was worldly in every respect.
As happened when I read this book 45 years ago in print, I did not want this audiobook
to end.
"A very worthwhile sleeper classic"
I had read in several literary forums that SAGN was lesser known but actually a better book than his more famous One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. I have not yet read Cuckoo's Nest (loved the film) but I have to say that SAGN lived up to and exceeded my expectations and I would have to place it amongst the greatest of the modern classics I've ever read. Starting out, the plain stark bare-bones writing style reminded me of Cormac McCarthy, another of my all-time favorites. Kesey has an incredible gift to put his reader inside the minds of all the characters, both protagonists and antagonists and other, so much so that I found myself sympathizing and empathizing with even the alleged bad guys. Combine that with all the symbolism, brilliant characterization and quest for universal truths and you have an incredibly enjoyable read! This is a challenging book because Kesey keeps switching the perspective from 1st person from character to character to 3rd person omniscient. Also, the narrator's voice was very appropriate for the novel. SAGN is easily one of the more rewarding reads I've had the pleasure to experience on audible. I'm off to more literary adventures with Kesey and I'd advise all other avid readers of challenging modern classics to do the same.
"Poetry in Motion"
I will keep listening to this forever.
Kesey is intensely artful and prolific with words that weave the threads and themes of weather, wilderness, wily human behavior, bewildered communication and willful characters to create an unforgettable fabric that constantly enraptures me. Unlike other reviewers who tired of the unclear distinction between voices, I found the unmarked shifting of speakers fascinating as if I were within that family myself, both part of it and also above it watching the whole thing like an organism comprised of swarming cells.
The opening narration setting the scene of the river and the house is unforgettable.
Viv, because I wonder how a woman could just settle into this and flow with it like she did.
"Great Epic Piece"
So glad I discovered this "sleeper" of an epic story...had never read it but found the character and area descriptions very thorough...especially liked the ending...quite different for a novel from the 60's. This author is a masterful story teller and should be much better known in his field than he is...it is indeed a classic. Started to watch the movie based on this but it was bland compared to the book and I didn't finish it...the book says it all.
"Kesey writes Oregon like King writes Maine"
It's hard to say. I have listened to over 100 audio books, perhaps more. My first experience with them was when I was a little girl back in the 60's and they were on LP records. So of course nothing can compete with the stories like The Little Match Girl and The Tin Soldier read by a master, male voice I could play on my little record player in the privacy of my bedroom at the age of five, and weep without being teased by my older brothers and sisters. The LP had sound effects too!Sometimes A Great Notion is a wonderful, earthy story of a Oregonian logging family that is dysfunctional. The father is judgmental and runs his family like his business...under a saw, as in cutting words, being blunt. Union strikers try and intimidate the family into stopping their non--union, independently owned logging business for the season and that isn't going to happen. The seasonal help is intimated and refuses to work for the family, so the prodigal, hippie, little brother comes home to help. You would think his father was grateful to have anyone help, nope, he has to get his judgements in like barbed fish hooks, and both men, really father and both sons are hard headed. The women smooth things over.I had always loved the film adaption of this book with Henry Fonda and Paul Newman. There is a scene of the brotherinlaw getting trapped under a log in the water. Paul Newman tries over and over again to start a large chain saw. Both men thinking they have all the time in the world--help will eventually come. The water starts to rise and the log rolls a bit on the brotherinlaw, laying him back into the water, up to his chin, then his nose, then he is under water. Paul keeps giving him mouth to mouth and you know that Paul's character will do this all night. His brotherinlaw is such a loving and joy filled father and husband--always with a joke to try and keep peace between father (Fonda) and his two sons. He starts to laugh under water and Paul is yelling at him to stop, but it makes him laugh more...and he drowns. The tone of the film turned dark from there. I hadn't read the book and this author also wrote One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (I did read and have it in a leather bound copy I love it that much), so when I saw Sometimes A Great Notion was on Audible, I had to hear it. I couldn't wait to read it.
All the descriptions of the coast, forest and river in such rich detail. I was born and raised in Oregon. A stone's throw from Lincoln City. My family made weekend day trips to every inch of the coast and camping along the Santiam River every summer. My father, brothers and husband grew up hunting and fishing too many places I can list here. Kesey knows the areas well.
I highly recommend the film by the same name
If you've read One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest and loved it, you will likely love this book too.
"Where is it going? When will it end?"
I was attracted to this title by the name Ken Kesey, recalling his prior work, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. It proved to be a disappointment.
I found it very difficult to keep track of which character was narrating at any given time. The narrative went on and on and on. I was wishing for the end by the second of four parts. The ending itself was quite unsatisfying, definitely not worth the significant investment in time.
"More more more!"
Yes. This book is captivating, detailed, richly woven. It was funny and poignant and sad and happy. I couldn't get enough and I didn't want it to end! I'm telling everyone I know about this book.
I fell in love with the Stamper family, I fell in love with the characters and the town and the lore. I never wanted it to end. I felt like I was really there. I live in Oregon and the descriptions of Wakonda are spot-on, the descriptions of the plants and the rivers and the wild fruit and the weather... I loved peeking into the lives of the citizens of Wakonda. Everyone had secrets and background stories. Amazing tale, unlike anything I've ever read.
Yes! It's a long book, and I couldn't get enough. I wish there had been sequels, more books written about minor characters, anything, everything. More more more!
Get this book! You won't be sorry.
"Can't get lost in it."
No not of Ken Kesey. I didn't like that the first person would switch between characters without announce that it did. I wouldn't know who "I" was for a while. Yes to Tom.
It shares some things with East of Eden. The two rival brothers their differences.
I wished that Tom Stechschulte would have made the voices of the two main characters more different to help tell who's talking/thinking.
No I don't think it does. The world and place in the book isn't a place that I'd like to visit again for a good while. To store succeed in its goals and doesn't need to say more on these characteristics.
"Beautifully written but painfully slow"
There were many characters and turns of phrase that I hoped to remember as I listened to this beautifully written book. However, the insight, humor and beauty of the prose were not enough to make up for the maddeningly slow unfolding of the story. If Kesey had been forced to make the book half as long, I think it would be a masterpiece. As it is, it came across as an author in love with his admittedly outstanding ability to describe character, scene and emotion. The story was secondary.
The performance of the book is outstanding.

he's so grown-up now at nine, hardly any work at all! He'd be going to a Y camp for archery & canoeing during the day and staying with me overnight. He's a big help with the kittens, wears them right out! I don't know who enjoys the laser pointer more, g-unit or the kittens! what really tires me out is if the grandoggie stays overnight too, she gets So! Excited! to play with her favorite little buddies. They're all too excited and chasing around to sleep, so of course that means it's too noisy for the humans to sleep.

newdealfarmgrrrlll commented on the blog post Souper Bowl Sunday Late Night: Soup's On!
yummm, soup! I make soup a lot in the winter. I make a huge pot, and put lots of single-serving containers of it in the deep freezer. Currently in the freezer: navy bean w ham, split pea w ham (i bought a pkg of 2 ham shanks at the co-op, made two kinds of soup), lentil w sweet potato, turkey, and chicken.
The lentil soup was a definitely-make-again experiment. I usually don't look at a recipe, just throw things in a pot. Here's what i did approximately, using an eight-qt stockpot.
Saute a chopped onion and several minced cloves of garlic in a little olive oil in the pot. when it's tender & translucent, add a teakettle's worth of boiling water or more, so the pot is about half full. Add rinsed & picked over lentils plus two bay leaves. this time i used about 2 cups regular lentils, 1 cup of small dark lentils, and 1/2 cup masoor dal (the masoor dal basically dissolves while cooking and makes the broth rich and savory). Simmer til lentils are almost tender.
Add veggies and herbs—first chop another onion and about 6 cloves garlic, add to the pot and let simmer while chopping the rest of the veggies. I used, approximately, 2 sweet potatoes, 3 carrots, 6 small potatoes, 3 stalks celery, all chopped according to cooking time. Dump all in the pot at the same time, add about 1/2 tbsp canning salt, 1 heaping tbsp each marjoram and thyme and maybe a tsp or so of sage.
Simmer til veggies are at desired consistency. Add more salt to taste, and freshly ground pepper.
Sometimes i'm in the mood to grate some parmesan over the soup when i'm ready to eat, with or without, i really loved the sweet potatoes in this soup.
So, there's my haphazard way of making soup.
Here's my cold/brochitis remedy:
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 large clove minced garlic (approx 1 tsp)
t tbsp raw honey
1/8 tsp cayenne
put all in large mug and add boiling water.
optional if i have it on hand—about 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
I've started buying bags of lemons, and doing up lemon juice, garlic and ginger in my cuisinart, and then freezing in 2 tbsp size portions. Nice to have on hand.
Another health enhancer i frequently have on hand is honey-lemon concentrate: in a jar alternate layers of sliced lemons (peel & all) with raw honey. Keep in fridge. Add a spoonful to tea. It is supposed to last indefinitely but i use it up pretty fast.
