I missed that we were doing #FridayNightShare again! For yesterday‘s #SpringNonFiction prompt, I‘m choosing the book. I think of spring as a time to clean & freshen up. I have had this book on my shelves for ages & still use many of her green cleaning tips & recipes including her Lavender-Lemon Disinfecting Spirits Spray & her essential oil combo list. 💚🌱🪻🍋💛
pickAs funny as Bill Bryson, as sincere as Barbara Kingsolver, and with goat-hijinks- anyone who wants the human race to survive with enough food for all of us should read this book. I read so many parts out loud to my patient husband, because they were too funny not to share! And if that doesn‘t convince you to pick it up, there are recipes.
Read things you're sure will disagree with your current thinking. If you're a die-hard anti-animal person, read Meat. If you're a die-hard global warming advocate, read Glenn Beck. If you're a Rush Limbaugh fan, read James W. Loewen's Lies My Teachers Told Me. It'll do your mind good and get your heart rate up.
pickHeads up!!! If you get this book as an audiobook, it‘s narrated by Joel himself!! This is fantastic because it feels like your having a conversation with an old friend as he blows your mind with rightful outrage over the American food system. Then he leaves you wanting to hunt down every local farmer just to shake their hand. (& support by buying their local food as much as possible)
“After all, we need such experiments in life rather badly now, when everything and everybody is being rushed down and swept into one dusty arterial road of cheap mass production and standardised living.”
From 1933.

pickGreat ecological shopping guide!
This is the book she linked to. Clearly I need to read this! https://twitter.com/spindlypete/status/992434556094504961
This sweet sticker on my car reminds me of Litsy! I got it at Book People in Austin, is there a Litsy fan there? 🤔
Reading about people who buck the system and create something new in its place is an inspiring vibe for this cross-country adventure.
