Every house is in this sense a hospital. A night and a forenoon is as much confinement to those wards as I can stand -- and then I must go outdoors."

| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Notes from the Heart... Greetings from The Heart of New England The former owner of our home must have had a remarkable passion for rhubarb because they were placed in conspicuous locations all over the yard, like prized ornamental flowers -- one even in the center of the lawn! (I've since moved it to the side of the garage). If you also have a lot of rhubarb and can't bear to make yet another pie, you'll find this week's recipe a refreshing way to use your bumper crop: Rhubarb Iced Tea ... I will be making it this week now that the weather is summer-like. You may also want to try our Rhubarb-Strawberry Coffee Cake recipe and Rhubarb Clafouti. * * * Giveaway If you haven't entered this month's give-away, do so today because the last day you can enter to win is this Wednesday, May 31...the prize is a $100 gift certificate toward a room at the Wildflower Inn in Vermont, PLUS a $30 half-gallon of the inn's own maple syrup.

That is why Nancy Cowan, decided to open up the NH School of Falconry, in September of 2005. It is the first and only school of its kind in New Hampshire, and one of only a handful along the entire eastern seaboard.
