Poetry and photographs by Georgia Santa Maria, who resides in New Mexico.

This book is part recipes, (of course! It's a cookbook!) But it is also memoir, story, poetry and photography. It is the story of one family, living on a "Hippie Farm" in Northern New Mexico with lots of beauty and love for the land, but not much in the way of modern amenities. It is about the craftiness of living without running water, heating with wood, and encouraging children to grow up being inquisitive, creative, and inventive within a fabulous natural setting. It is about rethinking the disposable economy, and reinventing how to do things, and make things, for yourself, whether yogurt, enchiladas, and Christmas candy, or forts, tree-houses, and solar outhouses. It is a love letter from the author to her children and that part of their lives.
