Orwell's Picnic ~: Ascension Thursday Sunday
http://anglocath.blogspot.com/2015/05/ascension-thursday-sunday.html
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God. Thursday, May 14, 2015. Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted and some had work on Thursday, so they voted to defer worshiping Him until the following Sunday. But by no means proselytize because that art solemn nonsense. British Library...

Orwell's Picnic ~: "Fabulous Wealth"
http://anglocath.blogspot.com/2013/03/apparently-we-are-going-to-have-to.html
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God. Sunday, March 17, 2013. Apparently, we are going to have to start having these familiar conversations again. We will be accused, again, of being "fabulously rich," of being in a state of sin because the Church owns so much art and fancy buildings. Again, [how tedious! We will have to ask, "Who would you like to sell the Sistine Chapel to? How much...

Orwell's Picnic ~: Home-home, homity-home!
http://anglocath.blogspot.com/2015/05/home-home-homity-home.html
Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God. Thursday, May 14, 2015. St Benedict also thinks it's a bad idea ever to leave the house. Rule of St. Benedict, chapter 66. I must say that a weekend like that, no matter how difficult or tiring it may be (my brain kept whispering "You're forty-nine! Life isn't just for "living," which I think many people equate with enduring until the weekend or u...

Orwell's Picnic ~: February 2015

Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God. Tuesday, February 24, 2015. When I moved into this flat, I discovered that it is a common practice in Italy to rent and sell homes that have no kitchen. That is, there is a room, and it has tiles on the walls, and water, gas and electric outlets, but no sink, stove, fridge, cabinets or shelves. It was just a room. With tiles. In any case, two thin...

Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God. Friday, May 08, 2015. Eating someone else's beef jerky, and having thoughts about the usefulness of activism as it pertains to the single-minded pursuit of The Real and whether "the news" has anything at all to do with The Real. Posted by Hilary Jane Margaret White. Hilary Jane Margaret White. Give up Fantasy. Only the Real counts. Nation-wise, we...

If only she'd use it. I don’t even hate cane toads or the Westboro Baptist Church that much, despite both being out to get me. Where does it all end? Ever since news broke of the shooting in Paris, I’ve had on my mind something I remember Desmond Tutu saying on, of all things, an episode of Donahue about 20 years ago. I might not have it exactly right, but it was along the lines of. The only way to be human is to be human together; and the only way to survive is to survive together. January 11, 2015.

Recreating a set of Elizabethan Trenchers: an Introduction | 21st Century Renaissance Printmaker
https://21stcenturyrenaissanceprintmaker.wordpress.com/2014/11/12/recreating-a-set-of-elizabethan-trenchers-an-introduction/comment-page-1
21st Century Renaissance Printmaker. Using historical techniques to explore printmaking. Recreating a set of Elizabethan Trenchers: an Introduction. November 12, 2014. Elizabethan/late 16th century trenchers are a long way from their humble originals, the medieval (and earlier) trencher. Trenchers began as the flat slice of a flattish loaf of bread incorporating the top or bottom of the loaf, used as a plate. There’s a very nice article about medieval bread which includes trenchers here. Trenchers and bo...

Stigh’s Scroll: Not a print, but almost as much fun | 21st Century Renaissance Printmaker
https://21stcenturyrenaissanceprintmaker.wordpress.com/2014/07/01/stighs-scroll-not-a-print-but-almost-as-much-fun
21st Century Renaissance Printmaker. Using historical techniques to explore printmaking. Stigh’s Scroll: Not a print, but almost as much fun. July 1, 2014. Last year I was asked to illuminate a scroll for a very good friend. I thought this would be a really lovely thing to do, although my only experience in illumination was drawing and painting a capital letter about 16 years ago. And I can’t even remember what the letter was. Illustration for the prayer book of Maximillan I. The sketch came together ver...
