It’s October, which means Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Lexington’s Race for the Cure was yesterday. Friday evening as I drove home through downtown, I noticed all the hoopla being set up for the festivities. I realize breast cancer is a big deal. First of all, I’m a middle aged female. Second of all, I’ve had … More think [beyond] pink
I like food. I like cooking. I like baking. I like eating. And I like following food blogs. But there are plenty of them out there. Plus I don’t have the patience to photograph every step involved in baking something. I’d forget to photograph at least one step and I’d have to start over. I … More this.is.NOT.a.food.blog
In case you haven’t heard, loafers are in this fall. And that’s especially good news for me, because I already had a pair. Honestly I can’t remember when I bought them, but it’s been years ago, most likely when they were in once upon a time way back in the past. IMO, they never really … More loafin’ around
I have a rather small journal in which I log writing ideas. That way, if a thought hits me, I’m prepared to record it. Well, my bag is currently so large and so full of crapola, that yesterday, I couldn’t locate the mini journal inside it. I decided I can’t tolerate it anymore. I absolutely … More it’s.in.the.bag

What he means by that is I’m currently fascinated with art and museums and art heists and paintings stolen by the Nazis in the 1940s and people who buy pictures at flee markets because they like the frame the picture is in, only to have the … More just.a.phase?
My mother emailed today and told me a movie is being filmed in their Oklahoma town. It is based on the play, August: Osage County. I decided to read the play, and have reserved it at the library. Interestingly, I’ve recently thought a book based on my great grandmother’s life would make for an exciting … More where.the.wind
I prepared a blog post earlier this week and ended up accidentally deleting it. After much time trying to recover it, I realized it is in a realm of cyber space I cannot enter. At least without ample assistance. I’ve kept the same title, but revamped what I originally wrote. It wasn’t that great anyway. … More sardonically [safe]
I titled my blog, “Once Upon a Sunny Day”. There’s a reason for that, and honestly it doesn’t have that much to do with weather. It’s another story. For another day. Maybe. But today, I want to write about the weather. The weather can be a royal pain. Like this crazy hurricane named Isaac. Isaac … More the weather
Today our family will visit a church for the first time. To protect the innocent, I will not name names. We’re without a church home and would like to quickly find a place that will be ours. Our family has more than a fair share of ministry baggage, as in we’ve been on the inside … More the.church.search
If you pay attention, you can overhear a lot. For instance, I’m listening right now while a woman tells another woman how her cat recently had to be put down. I’m sitting in my van, in the Lexington Music Academy parking lot. The woman who didn’t just lose her cat invited the pet mourner to … More camping w/dogs
