Hey, I know you're probably sick of people hitting you up for spare cash to send to disaster victims. I'm sort of saturated by it all. Anyway, This Old House's current show is about helping people in the lower 9th ward in New Orleans. The footage they've been showing is very practical, very what-do-we-do-to-fix this, and it's been breaking my heart. Also, cranky cranky Tony Bourdain just filmed an episode of No Reservations in New Orleans, and it made me cry.
So here are some knitters banding together to build one house. I think it's a lovely idea, and something tangible people can do. Just rebuild one house. Help just one family. That shouldn't be so hard, should it? Seriously. If you have $20 to spare, even that helps.

You are all kinds of awesome.
