"Through her work at New Southerner, Bobbi Buchanan has established herself as an important voice in support of environmental stewardship. This collection of brief essays is a gentle manifesto weaving her own experiences of becoming more mindful in her choices about food, work, and money with her belief that our consumer culture not only damages the environment, but our own sense of gratitude and wonder. Brilliant, funny, and moving, the essays remind us to listen and serve as a kind of daily devotional for those of us trying to move more gracefully upon the earth."-Wanda Fries
