"Self-sufficiency does not mean 'going back' to the acceptance of a lower standard of living. On the contrary, it is the striving for a higher standard of living, for food that is organically grown and good, for the good life in pleasant surroundings... and for the satisfaction that comes from doing difficult and intricate jobs well and successfully." John Seymour ~ Self Sufficiency 2003

Welcome to "Life Through The Cracks"

Continuing the introduction of new friends to old friends, please won't you join me in welcoming Ruth who lives "near deep in the Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia in Canada".
Ruth's blog is Life through the Cracks.  When she's not busy running her homestead she spends her time making exquisite jewellery. 


Please visit her site and give her a friendly welcome to this gathering of like-minded souls.

Ruth, I reply to all comments (even those placed on old postings), but given the size of this wonderful planet, and the different time zones, it may not be today by your time, but will certainly be by tomorrow.  And, if I am on the farm it may take a little longer...LOL

  1. I visit Ruth quite often via her blog. She's got so much to 'digest' and ponder.

Thank you for taking the time to comment - it makes my day and removes the "loneliness' of sitting at my screen blogging supposedly to myself ;) I try and reply as quickly as possible so please forgive me if sometimes my response is delayed.
