I just wanted to say thanks to all the lovely peeps who've read my blog post, and followed the link to my non-permaculture guild blog (www.onecentury.blogspot.com.) Some of you scrolled down a ways and veiwed the horrific photographic documentation of my poor Dozer-dog when he was in the midst of some sort of mystery allergic reaction. Most were touchingly concerned.
So I've posted another picture of the handsome Doze, so you all can see his normal appearance, rather then the gruesome swelling…

I had two exciting firsts today. One was my first trip to the Downtown Phoenix Market, a local foods and craft extravaganza held every Saturday and Wednesday.

You also brought up the subject of "flushing". I am in whole-hearted agreement. The very idea that we flush waste using perfectly good drinking water is pure insanity. I finally got my husband interested in building a compost toilet.
Some titles related to this subject:
"The Humanure Handbook" (Jenkins)
"The Toilet Papers" (Van Der Ryn)
"Liquid Gold" (Steinfeld)
"The Composting Toilet System Book" (Porto & Steinfeld)
. . . and for a bit of humor since we discussed corn cobs and old catalogs:
"Emergency Toilet Paper" (Rush - I notice that his last name rhymes with flush:)
My husband thinks I'm obsessed with this subject. I told I am obsessed - obsessed with not flushing waste with good drinking water which we may be running dangerously close to being without.

Thanks for adding me as a friend. You're my first friend here. I feel like such a loner-lol! Dozer sounds just precious. I hope his allergies are better now. I know sometimes the white dogs tend to have more sensitive skin. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I just took a look at your website. Very cool!! Is Dozer a pit bull? I have one (Knight) and a mixed breed too (Violet).
Stay cool! (yeah, right!)
