Our local paper, the Valley News, has an article on local efforts to help the Gulf Coast area. We donated to Red Cross a couple days ago and I gave blood yesterday. Here's the status of blood supplies in New England, they are really in need of O- and B-.
Find your the nearest blood drive center or area to volunteer.

Actually, TEN pounds, but it may as well have been 16...
Grapes?
There's more on the plants... ":^)
My, I hope you discovered the slug, spiders et al before the jamming...
They look lovely. I bet the jam will be wonderful. And I love that song.
Discovered some of the critters, but I'm sure some will be adding to the protien content.
Picked one by one? Wow, that's dedication!
