Warm regards Ginnee and Felipe

Thanks again for your kind hospitality to Doug and I back in February.

I so enjoyed your pemaculture paradise! You guys remain in my thoughts as a warm and valuable experience of LIFE, and thus in appreciation of your hospitality and appreciation of your work, I would (via a Cooperative PLATFORM of Sustainability Partnerships) be happy to bring additional attention from your target audience if you like.

My heartfelt gift is free of any cost or expectations, feel free to visit my site to see if there is something of use to you, as I am not privy to any updates you may have since we last spoke.

Sincerely,
Joseph

Malanga is composed of about 9.8 percent fiber, according to the University of Florida. Dietary fiber plays several important roles in physical health. It may help improve the elimination of wastes from your intestines, which may help relieve constipation and abdominal discomforts. Dietary fiber may also help lower triglycerides and low-density lipoproteins in your bloodstream, which may help prevent cardiovascular disease and stroke. This nutrient may also help control blood glucose levels, preventing dizziness and fatigue associated with hyperglycemia. 75% carbohydrates....The starches in malanga are easily digestible, which may benefit you if you suffer from a digestive disorder. It requires lower amounts of stomach acids for digestion, which may help reduce the irritation of peptic ulcers, and may decrease burning sensations in your chest and throat associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease

I've been reading through your blog and it inspired me to visit Costa Rica as soon as possible! I've been in Nicaragua for several months, but I haven't made it south yet (been working at a hotel). If you can make it up here, we'd love to host you in our hotel in San Juan del Sur. It's right on the beach in Playa Marsella.

2011-01-02T18:38:07.411-06:00

wow......great photos. the lizard is a green basilisk, also called a plumed basilisk (Basiliscus plumifrons) known in Costa Rica as the Jesus Christ lizard because they can run across the top of water.

I never knew they ate prey as big as a large snake. Incredible.

Dear Ginnee, I am moved by your pix of the kids who truly live in poverty, as well as your pix of the "well-kept-shanty." These are perfect images to show those in the U.S. who think they live in poverty.
Bless you for giving to the truly needy, and for your loving heart.
The world needs more souls like you.
G'day...Colette

2010-11-18T19:15:55.504-06:00

The calves are just as cute as the little puppies! I am vegetarian, so I don't eat cows, chickens, or any other animals. wonderful job with all of the puppies by the way! I just adopted my very own little shepherd/pitbull/labrador mixed puppy and I haven't had a good nights sleep for a while! :)

2010-11-03T08:56:37.498-06:00

Fer de Lance is common here, we kill 4 or more a week. They give birth to 100 live dangerous babies at one time.

I want to make shish-ka-bobs out of them. Pure protein. If we don't like the BBQed snake, then I will boil them and add the meat to my dog food. Parts are parts.

There is also an opportunity to make snake skin boots,and belts...the opportunities are endless.

2010-11-03T08:23:49.152-06:00

Good grief, Ginnee!! I hadn't ck'd your blog in a week or so and now when I do, what do I find but a Fer-de-lance photo!! That's one guy I don't want to meet!

Hope all's going well for you two...

2010-09-21T14:34:17.937-06:00

Hello, Ginnee,
I read "I am a sercious cook." and have never seen that word before. Then I thought, ah, she means 'serious'. Is that so? Looks like you REALLY enjoyed your shopping for the stove.
It has been a couple years since then. Where did you finally find the NG to Propane converter? It appears you had it within ten days because you whipped up the potato and squash enchiladas that everyone loves.

I should sell everything I have here and move to someplace like Costa Rica. Get out of this rat race.

Nice blog!

I am sorry to report that the young man died. His village was not able to get him off the reservation due to extreme rain conditions in the mountains. We wish him many blessings.

What a heart wrenching story about the young man - can you tell us the outcome or is it something you would rather not do?

Best wishes,
