I read a lot of blogs, especially food blogs. Oh, I do like good food, can you tell? Hate plastic, love food, love dogs. Could that be the theme of this blog?
In any case, the blog I use the most is The Apartment Kitchen. There’s the link, sitting over there in the right sidebar, not [...]

Walterpalooza

On Sunday we’re going to a fundraiser for the ALS Society called Walterpalooza. It’s to raise money for a van, to be owned by a trust and used by whoever needs it. The first recipient is a man well known and well liked in Lawrence. (I don’t know if I can use his name.)
The fundraiser [...]

Aaaah. My sister’s eye surgery, though painful, is over. She is fine and very grateful for all good thoughts, prayers, and light sent her way. Thanks.
Send white light

One of my sisters is having eye surgery tomorrow at 12:15 Eastern time. It’s not a huge procedure, but it’s scary and could be painful. If you feel like it, send beams of white healing light to wrap all around her. That’s my plan. What is our good energy for if not to spread all [...]
Easter desserts

We went to an Easter party today. Our friends have given this party for many years, starting when everyone’s children were little. Now all the children are grown up and gone, but we still have an excellent time, seeing people we know well, people we see only once a year, and people we’ve never met [...]
The energy of friends

Sometimes you just need some time to hang around with friends, eating and blabbing aimlessly about both consequential and inconsequential things (death, TV shows). That’s what we did last night at P’s house. The kale with onions and carrots was delicious too.
Gratitude

Life is pretty good. It’s my birthday, the sun is shining, and there’s goodness in the world.
A friend sent me this NBC article this morning about a young woman who hit a home run in a softball game and then injured her knee running to first base. According to the rules, her teammates [...]
Tagged? Shocking!

I’ve never been tagged before. In blogland, it means someone (who has been tagged him or herself) gives you an assignment to make a list. This one is seven things I think are lame. Erin, of the luscious With Vanilla and Honey tagged me. She was tagged by her Oilcloth Junkie [...]

Our friend D came to visit. He’s very good at discerning the ludicrous in everyday life. He brought me a present, the plastic bag that a new pair of mens underpants came in. I was puzzled at first (as well as blind, because I didn’t have on my glasses). What was [...]
Things I’m happy about

The light at sunset made it look like the field was glowing.
I started Practice Notes, a new blog about home yoga practice. It seemed to me that the 9 or 10 people who read this blog don’t really care. Also, it seems jargon-y in this context to use the names of the poses [...]
