Can You Live With the Voices in Your Head?

A somewhat longish, absolutely fascinating article about the history of auditory hallucinations -- i.e., hearing voices inside your head -- and a movement that has not only cropped up but become quite successful in Europe to change the public's perceptions around voice-hearers -- and the voices...

Book-like meme

Lil did this first, Molly then got her hands on it. So I shall do my damage to it, because what's a meme without the added indignity of a haphazard blogger heeding it. Using the list below, bold all the titles that you’ve read. If you’ve read other titles by the same author, add them under that...

Book Meme

Rachel posted this a while ago, and I was kind of amused by my results, so I thought I'd post it. I'm not sure whether or not this is the one where you're meant to add a book of your own at the end, but some of the books on this list are so abysmal - Mitch Albom, for pete's sake? - that I thought it...

Veggies in the Valley

For many people the beginning of Spring heralds the start of another year of fresh vegetables. Admit it, nothing says Spring like a crunchy pea pod or succulent stalk of asparagus.

What I'm learning about dog dominance - work in progress

To be slowly finished.... (The sheer amount of research this takes, reading it all, putting it together, and then typing it out takes time. Especially since I'm scanning article quotes into jpegs and gifs so I can link to them. Once I'm finished I'll clean it up so that it's easier to follow.) I was...

I really, really shouldn't

The other day it occurred to me that I’ve hardly said a peep about the book. Seeing as I spend every day in its (nascent) company, it seems like a funny oversight. It hasn’t been intentional, I swear. We’re just slowly feeling our way, this little book and I. Sometimes I feel so absorbed in...

Family first, shopping, eating, running...quick update

Still on vacation in Michigan...right now both parents are off with Grandma running an errand. So I'm home with my brother, but since he's still sleeping I have time. :-) This has been fast and tiring so far, fun too of course. Arrived Friday, Saturday my brother and I got dressed to go running,...

A Meme for the Literary

Several different blogs I read (in the school/education area) have this meme, which I challenge my readers to do, too. I've always considered myself "well read," but this showed me I'm not as well read as I thought. I guess I enjoy the detective novels too much! Here's what you do: Look at the list...

I love getting Christmas cards with photos on them or in them. They give lots of information about the people who send them, in addition to what the senders put into words. I hope the photos on this blog give you a huge, holiday bellyache of information about what we've been doing here for the last...

Frontera - Zesty Potato-Egg Scramble

I found this recipe on the back of a jar of Frontera Mild Roasted Tomato Salsa. That is Frontera as in Frontera Grill, as in Rick Bayless. I respect Rick Bayless as a chef, as well as his food, but this salsa is BAD. The ingredients are simple and are all actually food (tomatoes, water, onions,...
