As I scrolled down, down, down the page to post this comment, my belief that you've made a positive difference in so many lives across the globe was firmly rooted. I am sending you a virtual pat on the back and a hug for you simply being you. There may be hundreds of other blogs, giveaways, contests, etc., but there simply is no other Crunchy Chicken in town! You are a gem!<BR/><BR/>:0)<BR/>MMichelle Vergeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14013969477950426381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-44926815240811342382008-05-31T20:23:00.000-07:002008-05-31T20:23:00.000-07:00Thoughts and hopes and wishes and prayers.

Your blog was the first find for me in my online echo-search. You've truly inspired me and in turn, my family and friends, to live greener lives. I am a Diva cow, and have converted 5 friends to date. But that's just the start of this snowball.There are so many other things that our family/workplace and schools do now because of your lead. Really, you can give yourself a pat--you've been the catalyst for change for hundreds of people. Hundreds!! I understand the much needed break for you, but know that you will be kept in our thoughts and missed until your return. Love to your family from the center of BC,<BR/>Brooke.Brookenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-12705907710135260352008-05-30T21:12:00.000-07:002008-05-30T21:12:00.000-07:00Our lives will go on but your unique voice will be missed.<BR/>Take care and know that your have contributed many heartfelt and appreciated thoughts.<BR/>Peace,<BR/>Eva in se BCEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10547029683066393031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-47183180587256260362008-05-30T20:48:00.000-07:002008-05-30T20:48:00.000-07:00Best wishes to you and your family - I too will miss your insight and humor.Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00683655933935098511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-14100184815355042162008-05-30T16:45:00.000-07:002008-05-30T16:45:00.000-07:00Crunchy! I'm going to miss you so much! You probably can't tell since I don't comment that much, but I read your blog almost every day. This is weird to say, but from all of your awesome antics and funny tales, I feel somehow like you're a dear friend, even if it is sort of a strange one-sided friendship where I know tons about you and we never talk :) Anyways, I think others would agree that somehow you've become our friend. <BR/><BR/>That said, I just want to say good luck with everything and enjoy you're break. It's much deserved after all of your hard work :)LifeLessPlastichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11704564414066998644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1542806651392353413.post-68451944652388580442008-05-30T15:55:00.000-07:002008-05-30T15:55:00.000-07:00You introduced me to the Diva Cup.

I never answered the polls. I never did the challenges as a lot of them I had done years ago, I don't have the TV, we don't heat, we sun dry, and all that crap.<BR/>My confession: I read the blog for the jokes. Now I am in withdrawal.<BR/>All the same I can go back and check the archives.<BR/>We're thinking of you Crunchy.

Thanks for getting me motivated to plant more veges, puree avocado and pumpkin (1 avo and 2 pumkpin left in freeze). My water is down and you have helped me on my way. Take time for yourself and I will be holding down my fort making butter and gardening like crazy.

I was saddened to see you go but as has been echoed here - we all understand and wish you and your family the best. There are none like you and you will be sorely missed.
