Seven Things About Me, possibly interesting.

1.) I have been married more than half of my life.

2.) I have been living in Interior Alaska for all that time also.

3.) I have also, coincidentally, been cold for more than half the year, each of these years. (Location, not marriage) ;)

4.) I have been starting a farm the last few years, and live off the grid in the summer, soon to be year round.

5.) I practice herbalism. Not quite an herbalist, so I practice. I grow my own.

6.) We have a resident Great Horned Owl at the farm, who watches over things(and eats a lot of them too).

7.) I usually don’t do things in sevens…

Hey-lo, Birch man. What an interesting mish-mash of 411 about you–I love the “I’ve been cold for more than 1/2 year each year”–that sounds like something this thin-blooded gal can relate to, too. Q: is herbalism like homeopathic remedies to ailments? Is it spicy food? Is it 420? (lol on that last, but would love a brief descrip) Thank you for the award very much, as well!

All of the above my friend, on the herbal Q. I hope to distill essential oils eventually but I’m just getting started with that. Dried herbs right now for teas and such, with healing qualities in mind. Great stuff. So much better than supporting the AMA or FDA, though I believe in Doctors too. Super hot thai chili peppers, for spicy foods, cause you never know when you might get the munchies.

Bases covered! And yes–the FDA is too intertwined with Big Pharm for me to trust a product they approve. Somehow, the people with a vested interest in the results of a study, should not be the ones funding those studies. Call me crazy…

If you like to relax, try: Skullcap! :)
3 01 2013: birchpoet (06:56:44) :

I will try that! Paul Beyerl’s(Sp?) ‘The Master Herbalist’ is my book of choice right now. Several websites I use also. Lavender calms me. Jasmine flowers for fun and dreams. :)
Yes, so many conflicts of interest in these agencies…millions for studies instead of cures. Don’t get me started…I do go on…

Finally did warm up at Christmas. Very cold November and December, that’s why I put the cold thing in there. :)

Thanks Katherine. Not sure what the rules are for this one, it’s my first time(s) with these awards. We just answer those questions, pass it on? Either way, thanks for thinking of me…

Here’s a fun one, Birch Man! We’re playing Tag in the Blog-O-Sphere–and you are “IT”! No links to post, no bloggers to laud–just a lil Q&A and good fun, and of course, feel free to “stay in and do homework” if you have a “test” coming up. Hope to see you there!! :) http://charronschatter.com/2013/02/24/count-to-100/
