happy-making

2. Congresspeople who vow to reject a healthcare reform package without a public option. I have no money for politicians, but look at those faces! They look like a representative democracy, don't they? Extra happy to see John Conyers still kicking ass and taking names.

urban_homestead. I admire this woman so much. She lives on a teeny-tiny lot in a big northern city, with no car, and exploits what she's got for beauty, for pleasure, and for food for her family. She writes a lot about food, gardening and cooking. You probably know locavores like Stuart in Dykes To Watch Out For? "You'll get used to it."
urban_homestead demonstrates every day how sustenance can be sustainable *and* a source of delight. And the way she writes about her children's eating gives me vicarious pleasure without shaming me for having a picky eater. She is many kinds of awesome.
