Challenge III

I broke the 30 challenges for 30 days into 3 separate blogs because as with anything – too much information is just that – too much!! For those just tuning in the site highexistence.com has suggested that it requires 30 days of repeatedly doing something to make it a habit and they have suggested a […]

Challenged…..

Every once in a while I get the feeling that the Cosmos is speaking to me. You know, a bit of junk mail arrives just as you were thinking the same thing – take a trip, sell the house, order in. Well, yesterday I got a feed to my FB wall that read: 30 Challenges

I Scream, You Scream….

We all scream for ice cream – well maybe not these flavours. I know that I post a lot from Mental Floss – alas, I may have met my soulmate in a nerdy, mensa magazine – and my own IQ isn’t even up there with the biggies or the nerdies or something. Anyway, if they

The Brain Idles…..

I am sitting here at the kitchen table thinking. Actually I’m not really thinking productively, I’m just letting thoughts idle around in my head. Well, I am trying to come up with an idea for a blog this morning and I have had some “idea glimmers.” Can I call them that? These are the thoughts

When life gives you melons…..

……have a ball. Well what I really mean to say is, make “melon balls.” I have said before that I am a gadget “groupie.” I especially like kitchen gadgets and I have written before about my cherry pitter, and my mill for grinding nuts. I even have a philosophical treatise on sieves – nothing gets

When not to report a crime…

My husband and I were having a conversation over dinner last night. It was something that our neighbour had asked him. This is the husband of a young couple who had moved in next door, about three years ago. They have an 18 month-old, both of them are teachers, grandparents are around all the time.

WD – 40

I always feel a little guilty when more than half of a post is “lifted” from a listing of “things” somewhere. One of my friends posted these uses for WD-40 to my FB wall. Now, I use WD-40 often, but have never tried it for even half these chores. Here’s the list and at the
