It's really beginning to get downright frosty out here. It's been dipping into the freezing temperatures around here the past few days due to the very clear weather. amazingly clear for this time of year, in fact. a bit disconcerting.
i'm making some amazing rosehip-hawthorne berry-apple jam this weekend. i just started the process today by grinding all three together and extracting all the seedy bits. it's this thick stew of great healthiness. i'm excited to work on canning it on sunday. i'll let you guys see and read how it ends up going. should be great, though. nothing quite as tasty as home made jam.
in other news i'm doing well in my classes. it's kinda amazing. soon enough it'll be the end of my first quarter at Bastyr. it's a bit freakish how much i've actually learned these past few months. it's intense how many species, properties and local medicinals i know at this point. i fondly greet at least 3 species on every single trip i take around town now. it's really a cool feeling.
how are you all doing?
what's new in your life?
