https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/naturalmedicine/BEHsp3G0-image.png
Well, I'm back with the newsletter, after a short break and a pulled tooth. 😕 Thank you @riverflows for keeping the slot vibrant and for the wonderful selection of different thumbnails to spice up things this year. I hope you like the one that took my fancy today. I thought it really brightened things up and matched the plant based Natural Medicine January theme, while hinting that we have a variety of other features for you this week.

Some highlights of the week

If you're working on a self build, @thebigsweed has some great [advice and instruction on step flashing to seal a shingle roof.](https://hive.blog/hive-189641/@thebigsweed/a-few-tips-on-step-flashing-a-shingled-roof) Getting it right first time is a priority for him, because you don't want to be dealing with the aftermath of a leak and DIA (doing it again).

Now for something a little different. Each week @traciyork does a tarot reading and shares this as [an interactive post with the Hive community.](https://peakd.com/hive-120078/@traciyork/tarottuesdayreadingfortheweekofjanuary12th2021-civ45i3yqa35zsjjj95r) This can be both fun and informative, whether you're a believer of tarot or not, it can provide some food for thought.

@nateonsteemit updates us on [the progress of a couple of his self sufficiency projects.](https://hive.blog/homesteading/@nateonsteemit/little-projects) Things seem to be coming along nicely.

I love to finish the newsletter on a recipe and here's @riverflows with three! [Three plant based recipes featuring medicinal herbs,](https://hive.blog/hive-120586/@riverflows/getting-my-herbs-on-three-tasty-plant-based-kitchen-garden-dishes-that-feature-medicinal-herbs) because we often forget about that medicinal side to them and think only of the flavour.
