Simple and rich

Meet my new bloghome! Politicook: Food for the Progressive Soul. I've been asked to be an editor there! Go me. (Here's one of my posts.)

The decluttering of my life and my diet has revolutionized me, and I've been doing a great deal of thinking (and blogging) about food--about its pleasures and powers, and about how simple and rich my life is becoming as a result of spending more time at the market, in my garden, in my kitchen, and at the table.

The transformation has happened so quickly, and so unexpectedly, that I'm still not able to quantify it. I keep trying to write about it, so far without much success.

So I'll just say this: in contrast to my normal, dreary Sunday evening of yore--a.k.a. The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul--this Sunday evening avventura1234 and two of her kids came over joined me in eating spinach salad and fresh chicken soup with homemade noodles out in the back yard, while we talked about gardens, politics, and the possibility of living without a car.

And I just took two loaves of whole wheat bread in the oven. My house smells like heaven.

( Yum )
