City Chicken

When I was a child, my Mom used to make a dish that she called, "City Chicken". It was actually cubed pork on a wooden skewer. Why they called it chicken I'll never know. I happened upon a website though by that very name! What a great idea they are promoting. Check it out:

The great people over at The Path To Freedom are giving so many people inspiration to bloom where they are planted and the movement is growing. Can't buy the country property you've always dreamed of? Do what you can where you are!

We have a place in the town of Braddock (an old steel town) that is operated by a small group of artisans who have created a city garden and farmer's market as well as selling their wares. I've just started to investigate this and when the weather begins to cooperate a bit I'll pay a visit and give you a photographic tour.

I'm running off to work right now but will continue this post when I get back. In the meantime, follow the links at the chicken site and see some really cute coops!
