		<title>Summer work</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So if you&#8217;ve followed this blog since its inception, a scant seven months ago, then you know my husband and I had been planning to move on or about Solstice.  Well, we are finally in!  Not quite settled, but the ratio of cardboard boxes to visible floor is definitely heading in the right direction.
Far more [...]]]></description>

		<title>more firefly begetting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My good friend Abigail just got back from family vacation, and  wanted to let me know about a song she heard a LOT in the car that week. Yup, &#8217;tis another creative work about fireflies to add to the growing list, this one by Owl City, &#38; called &#8220;Fireflies.&#8221;
Thanks so much Abi, and happy 8th [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fireflies attract</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this week, my friend Barbara and I headed out to a meadow just before dusk to meet with Sara, a firefly expert, and Michelle, a fellow firefly fan.   Barbara and I are working on an extended project about this place, and she has made many gorgeous pictures of fireflies here, so we thought it&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

		<title>Critical Timing; or, of fish and flowering</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past week was one in which the return to life in this corner of the universe was early.  I&#8217;m trying super-hard not to panic about such things; maybe it&#8217;s just a weather-ish fluctuation.  It has been a beautiful, warm, dry spring &#8212; the antithesis of last year&#8217;s waterlogged start to summer.  But I can&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This past semester, I co-taught a class on &#8220;word and the photographic image&#8221; with photographer Barbara Bosworth.  The course was wonderful, populated mostly by photography undergraduates, many of whom are also aspiring writers on the side.
We included more than a smattering of landscape work. And one student, a guy named Sean, was inspired by that [...]]]></description>

		<title>better, cheaper, greener?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few months ago, I finally had the chance to read Whole Earth Discipline, the 2009 manifesto by Stewart Brand of Whole Earth Catalog fame (among many things).  He ranges over a variety of forces that are changing the planet and its potential habitability for humans, and also addresses the kinds of technologies he thinks [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dandelion oil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been away for a bit &#8212; consumed by family matters.  But happily, the world is once again spinning at a familiar and manageable rate, and I am having a bit more time for ordinary affairs. Yesterday, those ordinary affairs were botanical in nature &#8212; planting lots of peas and lupine, and preparing dandelion oil.

		<title>Schools and Sustainable Growth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent last weekend in Orlando, Florida at a conference for folks who serve on college Boards of Trustees and in related fields—college presidents, educational consultants, and the like.  The program was incredibly full, and far more varied than I had anticipated.  But second only to “changing economic realities,” the buzzword that most frequently peppered [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dressing for Climate Change</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Fashion is my bete-noir, or at least one of them.  While I am a huge fan of good design, high fashion makes me recoil.  It’d be easy to attribute this to pique, for I’m a shape and height (and now an age) largely ignored by those who design clothing.  But that’s not it.
It’s that high [...]]]></description>
