Treehugger Girl: April 2009
http://treehuggergirl.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. April 29, 2009. I spent the past few days in a beautiful place- hiking the under the rim trail of Bryce Canyon National Park. We were practically alone on a spectacular trail, the kind of being. This is ridiculous, if only my friends could see me now;" slicing up t-shirts sleeves at 8,000 ft, 15 miles from a trailhead, to make emergency tampons, or lying on my belly, my hair tangled in a spikey-endangered shrub, digging with my bare hands like a dog to cla...

Treehugger Girl: Addictions
http://treehuggergirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/addictions.html
Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. May 26, 2009. I have discovered podcasts. I am behind the times. I can freely admit this- living in a tent in remote parts of nevada. Makes it difficult to stay on top of things like new technologies, films, and celebrity gossip. We work in areas of radio silence sometimes- or the only station we can find is such bad popcountry. That silence would be preferable. But, since this device called an ipod. Have you heard of them? Stereo (his name is Sir Galahad.

Treehugger Girl: December 2008
http://treehuggergirl.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. December 13, 2008. Bringing in the Babies. Clarissa told me recently that I would be a good midwife. More specifically, she explained that if she ever found herself going into labor on a remote, deserted island for some unfathomable reason, I would be the person she'd like to have on hand. "You'd be totally competent. Impending pregnant friend stranded and in need of my help? Listening in on my phone calls? Definitely some kind of sign. Statement, really, ...

Treehugger Girl: Half Dome by Moonlight
http://treehuggergirl.blogspot.com/2009/06/half-dome-by-moonlight.html
Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. June 9, 2009. Half Dome by Moonlight. So, although there was a collection of rain clouds holding tight to the Sierra Nevadas, we knew that the moon was almost full, so I suggested that we hike up halfdome in the moonlight instead of fighting the crowds up in the morning. No campsite? No problem. We packed up, rain gear, thermals, and lots of chocolate covered coffee beans. We reached the park valley in late morning to discover that we still couldn't get a ...

Treehugger Girl: October 2009
http://treehuggergirl.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. October 19, 2009. A Purse for Emily. I won two dollars at the Delaware County Fair. My mother submitted the purse that I knit for my sister this summer, and it won third place. I lost to a pair of lacy socks and possibly a cabled sweater. Teased me that the piece on my needles most resembled a beautifully textured thong. I knit in the middle of nowhere. 12 hours of work, make some dinner, knit until the sun set on. I was almost done when a car accident cau...

Treehugger Girl: November 2008
http://treehuggergirl.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. November 18, 2008. Great minds do think alike. Pumpkins (and other fall squash relatives like Butternut and Acorn) are perfect fall foods. They are in season, often locally grown, fresh, and they keep well without refrigeration. The Produce Bible, a cookbook gift from my mother (I told you food was as close as my family gets to religion, right? So how did my soup turn out? November 11, 2008. Landscape, imposing enough to entice. Snakes in Virginia (. Fello...

Treehugger Girl: Camp Cooking
http://treehuggergirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/camp-cooking.html
Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. August 3, 2009. Too many people think that camp food is ramen. Noodles, freeze-dried mush, or easy-mac (that's right Christy. So gross. But I digress. The point is that I've been eating pretty well in the backcountry. Work is lovely because we drive these huge trucks with ample space for coolers and rubbermaid. Bins with cutting boards, cast-iron skillets, and vegetable peelers (just kidding, i never peel anything, even when i'm. 1 Apples and Sweet Potatoes.

Environmental ramblings from an aspiring writer. October 28, 2008. Letters to Old Friends. It's been fun to peak in on everybody's. New lives, snooping around your apartments, sleeping on your couches, meeting your new friends. Lawyer clothes, brooklyn apartments, doctorate degrees, salaried jobs, and expecting engagements? Oh my Our lives have diverged in so many ways since our friendships were rooted in their native physical spaces- it's fascinating. Who would have ever thought that'd. These recent yea...
