Walking in the winter warmth of spring weather; delicate flowers blooming alongside sprigs of blossoming Heather. Breathing in the enchanting elixer of fresh Spruce and Pine; into the bluest skies Mother Earth's miracles climb. Feeling light upon my steadfast feet; thrilling to the ecstasy of every new touch and aroma ...
Almost every morning this winter, I’ve eaten an egg, some spinach, lentils and a touch of sweet potato. Being on the road alot means not really having access to lunchtime meals as easily as being in an office and after packing three lunches, there is NO WAY IN HELL that I’m making a fourth lunch. NO WAY. I don’t know ...
We've flipped the page of the calendar, and I did so a little reluctantly, because I knew what it would hold. The beginning of soccer season. We all love soccer season (except maybe Lars....). It's fun to have the whole family trek out to the games. I love these things that we all do together. (and Lars does, too, even...
The Steelers run game and offense for the most part seemed totally out of sync Sunday in Cleveland, but did enough to produce two touchdowns and add in the special teams TD early in the game it was enough for a 21-18 win over the Browns. Cleveland did some things on defense to take away the black and gold run game, as ...
I remember speaking to a friend not long after I had first started going to yoga classes. I was telling her how I had not realised yoga was about the mind, I thought it was a purely physical practise. I had never explored quietening my mind. I hadn’t been the observer of my thoughts. I hadn’t understood terms such as ‘...
It's been nearly two years since I've felt the need to write anything here. I had picked up a good rhythm to posting on here. I was reading my books and gathering my notes and putting my thoughts here because I thought it was what I wanted to do. I really didn't care if people stopped by and read what I wrote. Then I p...
has always been a game that has for some reason alluded me. I love zombies... Resident Evil zombies, and yet I have never been an avid follower of the series. I have however played a lot of RE games. My first RE game was , which I got when I got my first Sony Play Station back in like 1998. I played that game to bits.....
3 days to go. Shock-o-Rama! Also shocking is that I got an A on my 1st quiz. I guess my brain still works after all these years out of school. I've been working hard but still got overwhelmed taking the quiz. I missed HALF a point for a truly stupid mistake and I'm kicking myself for it. But hey, I still got an A. I fe...

Most women change when they journey to mommyhood. For me, the most significant change I see in myself is the way I pack my own stuff. Makin lama makin sikit sebab barang Sara banyak sangat ;p You see, I am a fairly simple person. I want to have an everyday routine such as moisturizing my body with lotion or cleaning ...
Here is a summary of the sites that I have chosen for my Fall semester project. 10th St and 4th Ave N : Near site of current Taco John's restaurant and Lightbenders office.

You know him as Data. His agent knows him as Brent Spiner. I know him as a creepy pig-tailed gangster with a pistol and a hypodermic needle. The scenario transpired like so: I find myself dozing away on a couch in a small living room. Across the small room is another couch of similar size. Peering through my sleep-fill...

When I was a kid we spent our summers at my great-grandfather's house. The house was white and enormous, a mansion, at least to me at the time. The second floor was ours. It had an old kitchen with a wodden stove complete with jars and bins from the 50:ies. Behind it were chambers forming a labyrinth, filled with small...
I'm sorry for the lousy pictures. It's a long story but I wanted to get this recipe out to you because it's super yummy. I'm always a little bit cautious when trying a vegetable recipe because I find that sometimes they can be too bland unless you are careful and add lots of flavors. This one was great. Not overwhelmin...
By all means, the highlight of tonight's Headies award was the drama between rapper Olamide and producer Don Jazzy.

Okay, okay, I'm way behind. It's been a busy week and I've been cleaning my house top to bottom because my family is coming into town on Saturday.

Marseille’s revolution has left several of the club’s former players looking to return to be part of the ‘Champions Project’.

The big difficulty with an attempt to form an unequivocal opinion on the evolution/ID debate is that there is an enormous amount of data to assimilate, evaluate and ultimately synthesise into a conclusion. Most of the debate protagonists start with strong convictions and viscerally identify themselves with one side of ...
I recently finished The Help by Kathryn Stockett. (No, I did not take this picture – I got it off of Amazon.) It is the story of three women who bravely cross the racial boundaries of 1960’s Jackson, Mississippi to write a book about the experiences of black women who work in white women’s homes. Each chapter in the...
Here's a quick review today... 4 cards I created from the same design. Then I have to really get going.

I love this card design and think I should try to come up with some Christmas cards using i...
When the dog shows up at the door with a face looking like this, you know some investigation is in order. She keeps busy burying and digging up and re-burying her bone so we figured this is what she was up to. Since it had been raining for four days, the ground would be soft. "Where's your hole, Abby?" I asked. "Go fin...
Lately knitting has been calling louder than beading, but not in terms of photographic documentation of my progress and/or accomplishments, and the beading has been meagre.

Kanye West played a big role in Kid Cudi Apparently Kanye West played a big role in Kid Cudi getting himself together emotionally during his brief hiatus from the spotlight.

Here's what it looked like outside my window last night. Isn't it pretty??? So, in honor of our snowstorm, I pulled out a Sweet n Sassy set called for today's Sketch Challenge over on Splitcoast.

It was beautiful outside today and we took advantage of the wonderful weather. We went to the park with Grandma & Grandpa and had a picnic, then Ana Kate played on the playground for a while. It was just a bit windy, but still a lot of fun. After the picnic Ana Kate was worn out and she fell asleep in the car. When sh...
My interest of Joe Mangrum began in March. There were afternoons where I'd catch him an hour or so in, when what ever he was working on was at it's skeleton stage. Then I'd go off somewhere to meet someone or do something for awhile, and return to check out Joe's progression. It was like witnessing the blossoming of a ...
My mind has been wandering aimlessly this morning! It was Field Day at school today. As a special needs Mom, this is my least favorite activity of the school year. We've had varied success in making the day work for the boys, but more often than not the day leaves them feeling left out and leaves me angry. So, today, C...

Yesterday was my birthday! :) As a treat to myself, I indulged in some purchases. Firstly, my LYS just got in some Kauni last week. (JOY!!!) So I snarfled some. It was really hard to decide, but I settled on this: I also picked up this - it's not really a splurge, because its purpose is to be part of a sample piece I'l...
With this in mind, I make a salad most days for my lunch. Boooooorrring, you might think. Me too, up until recently. I discovered that if you put one thing on your salad you really enjoy, it might be an easier pill to swallow. Sometimes I use REAL Ranch dressing, some days I cut up half an avocado, and some days I have...

Ahhh...summertime. When produce is coming in season. Tonight I had my B.L.T. of the summer - 2 slices of toasted whole grain bread, a little light mayo, romaine lettuce, a juicy tomato, and 4 strips of bacon. I love a good BLT! With the sandwich I cooked up a few sweet potato fries. I also made a light "salad" of cubed...
I made muffins for a friend for her birthday - she wanted something other than cupcakes- so she had the idea of something with bananas and we ended up with this idea.

("Forgive me Father, for I have prims..."). What lay at the heart of my little epiphany regarding sculpted prims was that when Hogwart's beloved owner, Stormcloud Criss, built my office space in the library, she informed me that my prim allowance for furnishing the space was a princely 20 prims. Now mind you, it had be...

We're always getting the question, "Do you guys plan on having more kids?" and I never quite know how to answer. Chikezie is happy with our family size. I think it has a lot to do with being the breadwinner. Adding one more mouth to feed to a 4 person family seems a little overwhelming. Although we already need a bigge...
A while back, I decided to change some of my eating habits and one of them was to get more protein and eat less processed food. I am not doing Paleo or Atkins...I still eat things have starch in them, but I limit what kinds of starches I get, and I try to minimize chemicals and processing. One of those changes meant br...
...At least that is the short version of the title. The real title would be something like "shortcake pieces with macerated strawberries, rhubarb compote, and vanilla whipped cream". I thought the shortened version would be equally as appetizing. (I will get a better picture of this if I have any left later!) I have be...
My first 5K on Saturday was a blast. And...I ran the whole thing! No walk breaks!! (though I did pause for about five seconds at the water table at the 2-mile mark). I finished the 3.1 miles in 39:31. Slow, I know, but incredibly manageable. I actually enjoyed the whole race instead of practically collapsing like I did...
Where's the Dangling Baby? This may sound horrible, but these photos just don't look right without a baby dangling over the railing. They are uncannily similar of those photos.

always was and still is a lost place and the very train station in Berlin that, for me, portrays the city's ongoing change for the past couple of years, decades even.

Have you ever had one of those days when weird things just seem to keep happening? You find yourself saying,"What??" constantly. Well, that has been my case for the past couple of days.

My short "Stax of wax" It started as a project to convert the music on a 12" LP (Long Play) record to a CD. An album I really liked was NOT available online as an Mp3 so I needed to do it myself.

Good morning to you all. So there was no news. Then there was some news. Some big, juicy, very significant news. The signing of Heurelho Gomes, whos contract at Spurs expires shortly, on a 1 year deal (with option of a further year), came as quite a shock, to be honest. My initial thoughts were, that the bloke hasn't p...

I took this one the other night as River was frolicking just before bed. Good action shot, if I do say so myself.
