One of my dear friends took me to pick up one of Mariquita Farms’ organic, seasonal ”Mystery Box”es yesterday. The Mystery Box is a just-picked array of vegetables. The best part is, just like Forrest Gump would say, “you never know whatcha gonna get.”
Ok, I’m about 5’1″ and 112 lbs. This “box” was HUGE!!! It felt like it weighed about half my weight, although it was probably around 20-25 lbs… for $25. I suspect the same quality and amount of vegetables from a supermarket would easily cost $100 or more. Unbelievable deal.

A heady day, today. Warm, dappled sunlight in San Francisco. Obama swears in as a “force of energy” and sends ripples of light into the world. There is a silk-delicate but strong breeze of hope. As Elizabeth Alexander read today…
“In today’s sharp sparkle,…, anything can be made, any sentence begun…”
Both their words resonate with me and reinforce my binds to that something bigger. What better day to start sharing?
We all have a story. Here, I’ll share some of mine. And I’ll hope that it helps you or helps you express your own.
