Vida de Ella: February 2010
http://elberts-adventures.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 21, 2010. I just started attending a Unitarian Universalist church here in Washington DC. I went to the service on Valentine's Day and heard many poems and songs about all different kinds of love. This one defintiely called the tears out of my eyes. I never thought that a poem entitled something as adjective-free as Parkinson's Disease could be so moving. That's love. While spoon-feeding him with one hand. She holds his hand with her other hand,. Or rather lets it rest on top of his,.

Thursday, January 29, 2009. Lychee-Coconut Cupcakes with Ginger Frosting 4 stars, Dallas airport 2 stars. In my post-Peace Corps stupor where I live in awe of hot running water, wall-to-wall carpeting, and being pretty clean most of the time, I've started baking but I'm also starting to lose my mind. In some countries this is considered progress. The lychee-coconut cupcakes with ginger frosting. Oh my God, YES! I squealed like a sorority girl. Already down in lost and found.".

Thursday, March 12, 2009. Come and join us. I'm currently reviewing suggestions for costumes. The job search saga, Part I. To be very, very helpful. Results have been slow going for me, although I can't really complain because it has only been a month. In December, in my completely uninformed frame of mind USAID actually flew me to Washington DC to interview for my dream job, based on one of those "practice" applications! Don't worry I have already reapplied :). Sunday, March 08, 2009. I'm happy to say t...

Wednesday, April 30, 2008. Already $324.92 for Water at Rinconada Elementary! CLICK THAT BIG YELLOW BUTTON TO MAKE A DONATION! I'm raising $2000 to get 24 hour running water installed in the elementary school in Rinconada.
