brunch Blog and Journals

So much goes on, observe

the world and things. I do indeed

do things here. It is easy to get into

a period of passive observation

and not mention my morning dancing

with my plants. Or late morning brunch

with the trapeze woman. Or volunteering

to show young children the wonders of our

"vibrant costal areas".

There is a woman in Vancouver. She creates

these stunning photo collages of her every day

activities. I wonder if copycatting is flattery

or simply an inability to find an original format.

But if the pictures are unique, is the story they tell

likewise original?

In Texas the Gentleman Friend decides

which form of Mayan he will study for his disertation.

The difference is geographic, to visit the mountains

or spend time in the rainforest? I think about

fascinating problems. Dilemmas worth having.

Transitioning between many projects at the moment

jars the mind, uncertain what to work on next. This

despite a plethora of things available to be worked on.

The resulting cacophany is disjointed, and leaves

only snippets of thoughts for memoir poetry.

Hi guys,

Just a quick little post today, responding to a question that keeps coming up...

"Do You Cook?"

or

"What's Your Favorite Thing to Cook?.....Your Specialty?......Your Secret Recipe?"...you get the idea.   Perhaps people are interested because the holidays are right around the corner or maybe I just have the Gourmet Chef look...not quite sure, but what I can say with 100% certainty is that I'm no Rachel Ray and Emeril does not need to worry ;-) 

I would love to learn to cook, however, and WILL take classes sometime soon. 

In the meantime, for all of you who are challenged in the kitchen like I am, here's a recipe I can share with you -- 

ICE. Freeze water.

But definitely ask me again in a few months after I start taking my cooking classes!

xoxo

p.s. Southland Tales opens this Friday...I'm going to see it...are you??
