Hi KristinaMay: I just dropped back to your blog after reading your shout to me from the spring - sorry to be so tardy in replying. I still love your blog, and I appreciate how you've kept up the quality and quantity of content over a period of time. Have you ever considered writing about Seabuckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) on your blog? You can get a lot of interesting informataion from our main site and our blog, but actually the Wikipedia page is a very good introduction: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seabuckthorn. If you drop by the blog, go to the "agriculture" and "seabuckthorn" categories for some relevant posts, and on our commercial site (http://www.seabuckthorn.com) go to the "SBT Science" page (link at top).
Whether or not you write about the plant, it's nice re-connecting. Have a great day!
