Right, this goes for me not you! You should all go to Twelfth Night and buy lots of glass. ;-)( adventures in saving, cooking, preseving... )

Sounds like a great plan, and some good food. Wish I could go and buy glass, but I'll enjoy Drachenwald 12th Night instead...

You are right - it is a very self satisfying skill. I feel much better about myself when I'm less wasteful, more responsible, living according to my values, and am also eating better. Quite wholesome. ;-)

I should have some stuff at Ursulmas. I'm not officially merchanting, but will bring a basket o'glass up with me.

We've been working on similar skills, and noticing that we tend to eat better as well as more frugally.

There is something very rewarding about the creativity, use of skills, and sticking to values involved! Of course I'm sure you guys usually eat pretty well - it would be hard for you to do less. ;-)

I'd dearly love to be able to buy glass from you, but when I had to choose between going to 12th night, and adding resource saving infrastructure to Acorn Cottage - the new washing machine won. I hope that there will be plenty of folks that will buy your glassware -0 it is so awesomly beautiful and useful!
