What’s Happening Wednesday
Rhode Islanders kick of the holiday season with some fun local events.
Local foods can still be purchased in time for Thanksgiving! Attend the first Coastal Growers Winter Market this Saturday in North Kingstown.
Not in South County? There’s always the Wintertime Farmers’ Market in Pawtucket.
For local made handcrafts the Meadowbrook Waldorf School holiday faire is this Saturday evening and all day Sunday- great fun for the kids and lots of neat stuff for the ‘rents. (I LOVE the bookstore).
Shakta Kaur Kalsa, author and yogini, is coming to All That Matters this weekend, learn about yourself, learn about your children… Kundalini yoga will take you places you have never been.
Get ‘em outside! Rhode Island Families in Nature is taking a hike this weekend at Ryan Park, Oak Hill Road, North Kingstown.
Stay Healthy.. Stay Happy..
Concerned about the flu? Stay away from the doctors…. and take a hike instead.
Around the Blogosphere
Suna {LobsterMonkey} is an friend from college and an outstanding mother, blogger and crafter. Still looking for the perfect homemade centerpiece for Thanksgiving? This just might be the answer.
Why do we blog? Here’s one blogger’s answer. (Isn’t she cool?)
Maybe while outside hiking this weekend, you can take some time to reflect on celebrating. What’s your 5ives?
And I’d be deficient if I went without mentioning these great posts… so get ready for winter tracking or plan a meal (in Kansas).
Back Home in My Backyard
We’re getting ready for Jeremiah’s 3rd birthday…. (how’d he grow so fast?).
We’ve got lots of leaves ready to spread in the garden… and we’re harvesting seaweed and planning another trip out for manure.
Flower seeds abound… seed saving/ spreading is in order.
We’re gearing up to make some potato stamps to decorate name place cards for our Thanksgiving dinner table.
