You should plan a trip and then we can plan a picnic!

I do love a good picnic although I haven't been on a real one in years. These days picnics are typically had on my living room floor with my youngest. Its a rainy day thing we have. I do have some specific supplies that I like to bring when eating... Continue reading

Why do I knit? God knows its nearly as stressful as it is relaxing at times. The mojo comes and goes and in the past 4 years or so it has definitely been waning but its making a comeback lately. Here are some of the reasons why: 10- The joy... Continue reading

There is nothing I love more than sing alongs in the car. I can see why you'd cherish that memory. I so want to learn to drive. The freedom of it so enticing!

I hate labels and boxes. I never fit in them comfortably, a little white girl in the South Bronx, a gifted child who dropped out of high school, I was pretty much the square peg for any round hole. I swore I'd raise my kids to be the same. No... Continue reading

I'm excited about your business. Inspire me why don't you? ;) Definitely looking forward to the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
I'm eager to hear the answers myself. I like Real Simple but it doesn't really cover the same range of subjects and it tends to bore me after awhile. I go on and off subscription with it. There's no way i can ever really live the life they preach, lol.

A friend told me that rather than having a New Year's Resolution, she has a theme. As in 2013 will be the year of... kind of thing. So jumping on this bandwagon I decided that my theme this year would be focus. Rather than attempting any one or more specific... Continue reading

Of course I loved the Sid and Marty Krofft shows. The Bugaloos and H. R. Puffinstuff being my favorites. I was actually called Witchy-Poo by a friend I worked with for years. Don't quite know how I allowed that to happen lol. I also loved colorforms. I always remember my first set, it was Planet of the Apes and I played with it for hours!
Its funny. I've loved this since I was a kid. Its one of the rare female voices in the lost books of the bible. I tend to seek it out when I'm feeling helpless or weak and it always helps me find my power again.
The Thunder, Perfect Mind From the Nag Hammadi Library Translated by George W. MacRae I was sent forth from the power,and I have come to those who reflect upon me,and I have been found among those who seek after me.Look upon me, you who reflect upon me,and you hearers, hear... Continue reading

That bread looks delicious. Next time I visit you can make it and I will share it with you. I'll keep an eye out for the mix. You know visiting Ireland is on my bucket list. I so want to go there and to Scotland.
I love raising butterflies. Its so cool. Excellent example also!
I'm on board with 2 as well. I really like the way they look next to each other.

2012 sucked. That's it. There's no other way to say it. Lot's of bad shit happened that I still can't really talk about and haven't completely wrapped my brain around. I think I may well have had a nervous breakdown and just hid it really, really well. That being said... Continue reading

That kind of thing drives me nuts. Who can you trust if you can't trust the ball band on your yarn?

Twin power in action as always :D . Nobody can touch Earth Kitt as Catwoman but Julie is a worthy runner up and yes I felt the same about them as I did about Emma Peel in The Avengers even if not quite as strongly. They were very empowering.

I've been chatting with a friend of mine of late and the subject of god and religion arises. He is far more a believer than I but not necessarily religious. Still there is definitely a level of faith in him that I've never achieved. I've gone through various phases of... Continue reading
