...other than writing Hounds in the Kitchen. I feel like I've been neglecting the blog recently, but it's all for good reason. Here's what is taking my time: 1) Volunteer work with Ohio 4-H International Program and Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association - both have heavy summer seasons and in the last month I gave over 40 hours of my time to volunteer opportunities

2) House showings - we are cleaning and vacating for potential buyers every few days but we don't have an offer yet. Any help you can offer in sharing our listing or making house voodoo magic would be much appreciated!

3) Castles, zoo, parks - to ease some of the house selling stress, I am taking extra care to treat Lil to outings around our city.

4) A special opportunity - I was invited to be part of something big and exciting to be revealed very soon!

5) Planning fall classes - In addition to what I already have scheduled on the events calendar, I will be offering two new types of classes at new locations. I'm still nailing down the final details, so look for an announcement about when and where next week.

What are you up to?
