Caitlin E. O'Conner's Blog: September 2016
http://www.caitlinoconner.com/2016_09_01_archive.html
Commentary, world views and whatever strikes my fancy. Monday, September 26, 2016. What I ate this week: Recipes for fried quinoa, burrito bowls, quick chicken n dumplins. Does anyone really care what I ate this week? Probably not. But do people care about the struggle of meal planning and enjoy sharing recipes? And that’s what this is really about. I did especially well this week. I ate out three times but only spent $20 on eating out and the only grocery I bought was $5 worth of chicken breasts. One of...

Caitlin E. O'Conner's Blog: January 2013
http://www.caitlinoconner.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Commentary, world views and whatever strikes my fancy. Thursday, January 17, 2013. Can a white woman wear a sari or salwar kameez? The fine art of culture sharing. I am — I will be the first to admit — a strange person. For many reasons, but we’ll focus on one in particular. I am American, of primarily Irish, English and Native American heritage. But I consider myself a bit more international than you would think. I own three saris, six salwar kameezes, three kurtis, a pair of Patiala salwar (pants) and ...

A letter for a confused, frustrated and sad soul | "Expect Miracles"
https://gabrielayareliz.wordpress.com/2013/07/03/a-letter-for-a-confused-frustrated-and-sad-soul
A letter for a confused, frustrated and sad soul. Dear confused, frustrated and sad one,. How do we find out which way we are going? Truly, we never reach a place in life where we have it all figured out. The whole idea is that as time goes by, however, we learn to trust our Guide more and more. There gets a point where there is nothing else anyone can say to us– we must simply believe it ourselves. Believe what? Is it not after sleep and what seems like death that the butterfly breaks through? Do not be...

Gabriela Yareliz | "Expect Miracles"
https://gabrielayareliz.wordpress.com/author/gabrielayareliz
The town of Amatrice, Italy was destroyed by an earthquake. Praying for all who are suffering loss. This tragedy brought memories of the 2009 earthquake in Italy. Below, is a song I absolutely love that was recorded by popular Italian artists to raise money for the cause. Tuesday Badinage: August 23, 2016. In court, I ran into an opposing counsel who had on two different shoes. 8220;I will fess up to you,” he said to me as I walked with a colleague. Dialogue of the week:. 8220;Don’t call her Leo! Will un...

What’s in an age? | "Expect Miracles"
https://gabrielayareliz.wordpress.com/2015/08/02/whats-in-an-age
What’s in an age? I saw this on Tumblr, and I had to share:. 8220;No matter how old you are now. You are never too young or too old for success or going after what you want. Here’s a short list of people who accomplished great things at different ages:. 1) Helen Keller, at the age of 19 months, became deaf and blind. But that didn’t stop her. She was the first deaf and blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. 2) Mozart was already competent on keyboard and violin; he composed from the age of 5.

FILM REVIEWS (A - Z). A SONG FOR EACH PICTURE. A Yash Chopra Romance (1932 - 2012). Sad, sad news today of Yash Chopra's passing.

Sunday Girl: August 14, 2016. 8220;When you live with soul…. Every thought is a prayer;. Every word is a blessing;. Every single day is a miracle.”. It has been one of those Sundays. My hair has been piled up, on top of my head, making me look like a Teletubbie, all day. (Like Laa Laa, the cute yellow one. The others are creeps). I watched Mr. Feeny marry Shawn Hunter on Girl Meets World, because apparently, you can never be too old for a good Disney Channel show. *so many tears, guys*. Unbelievable....

Thoughts from a Temporary Cat Lady. Where I am staying, there is a little cat that is afraid of many things. Any sudden movement, and she disappears. I suppose many past, bad experiences brought her to her nervous state. So now, even though she is safe, she is still afraid. I was talking to the cat while I was cooking. “We are all afraid of something, aren’t we? Here is a remix of Psalm 56:. When I am afraid, I put my trust in you (God). (v.3). In God I trust, I shall not be afraid. (v.4). Looking back a...

FILM REVIEWS (A - Z). A SONG FOR EACH PICTURE. Deewaar (1975) and The Last Lear (2007): The Bachchan reigns supreme. Off they go in opposite directions! Call it what one may. Masala. With a purpose (it is definitely more than average masala. Who reigns supreme in this magnificently written film by Salim-Javed. This might be a good time to open this link.
