Old Devil Moon – Finian’s Rainbow

I look at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me

It’s that old devil moon
That you stole from the skies
It’s that old devil moon
In your eyes

You and your glance
Make this romance
Too hot to handle

Stars in the night
Blazing their light
Can’t hold a candle
To your razzle-dazzle

You’ve got me
Flying high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside

I wanna cry, wanna croon
Wanna laugh just like a loon
It’s that old devil moon
In your eyes

I look at you and glory be
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me

It’s that old devil moon
That you stole from the skies
It’s that old devil moon
In your eyes

You and your glance
Make this romance
Too hot to handle

Stars in the night
Blazing their light
Can’t hold a candle
To your razzle-dazzle

You’ve got me
Flying high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside

I wanna cry, I wanna croon
I want to laugh like a loon
It’s that old devil moon
In your eyes

Just when I think
I’m free as a dove
Old devil moon
Deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love

Yeah
Yeah

Know Your Food

Eating close to the earth, connects us to her as we allow her to nourish our bodies.

The food we eat is a multidimensional aspect of our lives. Food provides us with the energy that enables us to grow and prosper. Yet it can be, and frequently is, much, much more. Our food can be an experience in and of itself if we allow it to be. The dishes we remember from childhood offer unmatched comfort. The act of preparing meals can be an art form of the highest caliber. And the nourishment we derive from this fare promotes wellness within us. But many of us, distracted by daily affairs, forget that the profound pleasures of eating go beyond simple sustenance. We eat foods that are convenient or we eat unconsciously, snacking on whatever happens to be on hand. To understand the true value of food and the impact it can have on our lives, we should acknowledge and honor it by eating close to the earth.

If you have ever shelled and eaten garden-grown peas or bitten into a sun-warmed apple freshly plucked from its tree, you likely understand that there is a marked difference between these foods and those that are processed and stacked on supermarket shelves. Food recently picked contains more of its original life force and thus has a greater store of energy and nutrients. You can ensure you are eating close to the earth–and enjoying the many benefits of doing so–by shopping at a local farmers market and getting to know the individuals who grow your food. If you make the experience of shopping in this way enjoyable, you will be more apt to reject more convenient canned, packaged, and frozen foods in favor of the real delight you feel while browsing stalls of fresh foods nourished by the same soil you can find in your own backyard. You will soon learn what foods are in season in your area and how to prepare them.

As you savor the vivid flavors of juicy ripe fruits and the hearty crunch of unprocessed vegetables, you can also take pleasure in the fact that, by eating close to the earth, you are supporting farmers in your region, connecting with your local ecosystem, discouraging those who would waste precious fossil fuels by carting produce cross-country, and helping to preserve healthy culinary traditions that have existed for centuries.

Richard Marx
“Endless Summer Nights”

Summer came and left without a warning
All at once I looked and you were gone
And now you’re looking back at me
Searching for a way that we can be like we were before

Now I’m back to what I knew before you
Somehow the city doesn’t look the same
I’d give my life for one more night
Of having you here to hold me tight; oh, please
Take me there again
Oh, oh

And I remember how you loved me
Time was all we had until the day we said goodbye
I remember every moment of those endless summer nights

I still recall the walks along the beaches
And the way your hair would glisten in the sun
Rising in the afternoon
Making love to you under the moon, oh

Do you remember all the nights we spent in silence
Every single breath you took was mine
We can have it all again
Say that you’ll be with me when the sun brings your heart to mine
Oh, oh

There’s only so much I can say
So please don’t run away from what we have together
It’s only you and me tonight
So let’s stay lost in flight
Oh, won’t you please surrender
