herbal studies

I did it! I am now enrolled in Susun Weed's nourishing herbal infusions, a free four part online course. I have joined Herbal Mentor and started the Herbal Basics class and tomorrow I start the Learn your Plants class. The great thing about these being online and prerecorded or uploaded, is that I can go at my own pace and do several at once that complement each other.  Here is how I wrote about myself when creating my "profile" at Susun's online Wise Woman University

I moved to Germany a year ago with my partner. I practice bodywork and I am a cook, a performing artist and a singer. I work with wool, spinning, knitting, and felting. And I am an aspiring permaculture gardener, herbalist, and herb wildcrafter. I want to learn herbal medicine in both languages!

I thought it high time to write about the work I actually do and aspire to do in the world instead of shrinking behind some bland or philosophical something.

Oh, and we made Turkey Mole last night! It had been years since I had made it so we used the recipe from Rick Bayless, Mexico: One Plate at a Time. Details to follow.
