Cozy Tea-Blue House: interpretation
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2010/06/interpretation.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Tuesday, June 08, 2010. There are two phrases people use with regard to children that make a particular impression on me. I've written about one before- "control your child.". Now perhaps this phrase is most often a frustrated shorthand for "Please don't be a lazy or overly permissive parent! Essential. Submitting to the authority of the wack cult leader, or obeying the abusive or immoral boss? While "control your child" is heavy-handed and ultimately somewha...

Cozy Tea-Blue House: ode
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2010/08/ode.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Monday, August 02, 2010. The secondhand store is a comfort zone, an unspoken excitement current woven quietly through the familiarity of each new place. There are the larger ones, the smaller ones. The chains and the independents, the church-run. The higher-priced, the vintage, the truly thrifty. The flourescent-lit, the dimly-lit, the glowing, cozy. They all smell the same. I had a technique there too, flipping LPs and CDs in the deceptively dense bins.

Cozy Tea-Blue House: autumn is this life
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2011/11/autumn-is-this-life.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Sunday, November 06, 2011. Autumn is this life. Autumn is this life, beautiful yet fleeting, a wistful segue into winter. In starker northern climes, this truth is writ large for our lived understanding: why does a chill wind accompany this beauty? Why is the cold hush of snow here so soon- how can we live with such coldness? Surely we weren't made for this. How is it that the direct sun of summer could tilt away like this?

Cozy Tea-Blue House: scattered thoughts on a determined topic
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2009/07/scattered-thoughts-on-determined-topic.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Wednesday, August 05, 2009. Scattered thoughts on a determined topic. In the interest of full disclosure, I am an advocate of gentle discipline and other tenets of what some may call "attachment parenting," though the philosophy predates this modern label by years upon years.]. Comes to mean, euphemistically, "Your father will spank you! However, discipline, in the sense of teaching, does not suddenly begin at eighteen months in the form of a swat. Children a...

Cozy Tea-Blue House: Myers-Briggs, Keirsey, and cultural expectations
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2007/06/myers-briggs-keirsey-and-cultural.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Tuesday, June 12, 2007. Myers-Briggs, Keirsey, and cultural expectations. By temperament but are also cultivatable. I have finally come to the idea that there is a missing distinction in this area: that of temperament versus cultural expectations. Temperament would help explain the tendencies of individual people, personality type would further refine this understanding, and knowing the person firsthand would give you an actual. People within a particular cul...

Cozy Tea-Blue House: o fortuna
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2010/08/o-fortuna.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Tuesday, August 10, 2010. Recently I heard a certain proverb, and have been thinking quite a bit about how to charitably address its possible implications. I hope this is that charitable way. The parable essentially stated that, in most cases, monetary difficulties are a person's own fault. NOW. There is also a great deal of risk in this saying. So caused are rare exceptions). The difference in the wording is subtle, the difference in meaning immense. If one ...

Cozy Tea-Blue House: supermarkets and stories
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2015/06/supermarkets-and-stories.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Sunday, June 14, 2015. So it has come to my attention that I haven't written any supermarket stories in, like, a metric year (just made that up), and. I've conveniently returned from a supermarket trip that was marginally interesting. Sit back and stay awhile! And he said "Why didn't you? This is one of the reasons we are a good match.). Nice honey in a pretty bottle? Other items to make tasty meals? All in the cart. For a thousand metric years, but didn't wa...

Cozy Tea-Blue House: four random things, deluxe edition
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2015/08/four-random-things-deluxe-edition.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Thursday, August 13, 2015. Four random things, deluxe edition. I'm not actually sure what makes this "deluxe" other than that it is truly a random collection, but here goes! Excellent lunches, the regional-specificity of which I didn't even think about until well into adulthood: tostadas. 4) We recently harvested some zucchini from the garden and tried this recipe for zucchini butter. Labels: four random things. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Scattered t...

Cozy Tea-Blue House: leading question
http://teabluehouse.blogspot.com/2015/08/leading-question.html
But why should I speak? For I know nothing.". Monday, August 03, 2015. First, I’m not so sure it’s true that only girls are told they’re bossy, and that the same behavior would be praised in boys. I myself have told my older son (as well as my older daughters) that it’s not right to just boss people around. What do people tend to. These days when they say “leadership? 8221; And are those the same thing or what? Is everyone just supposed to “lead” somehow? What sense does that make? Or do a group of peopl...
