"If there’s a world here in a hundred years, it’s going to be saved by tens of millions of little things. The powers-that-be can break up any big thing they want. They can corrupt it or co-opt it from the inside, or they can attack it from the outside. But what are they going to do about 10 million little things? They break up two of them, and three more like them spring up!"
- Pete Seeger, in YES! Magazine

Donate to Local Food Bank

The project:
Donate a bag of groceries to our local food bank.

Time:
Twenty minutes to collect. Five minutes to deliver.

Why bother?
It's that time of year again - the temperatures are dropping, the holidays are coming. Plus, the economy's still a major challenge.

Worth it?
I hope so. It wasn't so easy this time. We're pinching pennies around here, with cutbacks at work combined with the costs of the girls' increasing activity level. Still, we're very fortunate to have a job, a home, an income and (knock on wood) our health.
