Crafts, food, and fun things I make. Writing is a Never Ending Story. Monday, December 22, 2014. Kid's play stove, The beginning AKA Part 1. Sunday, December 14, 2014 is when I discovered this adorable stove on Facebook. My post on that date included Dawanda. The German website where the stove was posted. It is sort of like Etsy. I knew I couldn't order from them because chair sizes vary so I decided to create my own. This is the picture from their site. I am a competent seamstress. What that means i...

Armageddon: Pick Your Plot. Reflections on the #AMEshooting and an author's call to action. On Thursday, I was shocked (or not shocked? Which is worse.) and saddened to hear about the shooting at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston. Sunday's service at the. AME Church - from npr.org. Are 'terrorists' who often never make it to jail or a trial. I cried as black friends expressed fear for the future of their children. Again. So I want to talk to my white people for a second. And they do, for all of us) I'm no...

Maui Jungalow: E Komo Mai or E Kipa Mai? (Which is more welcome?)
http://www.mauijungalow.com/2014/04/e-komo-mai-or-e-kipa-mai-which-is-more.html
Saturday, April 5, 2014. E Komo Mai or E Kipa Mai? Which is more welcome? E Komo Mai is a phrase you might encounter as a tourist. It sometimes shows up in glossy brochures and activity guides to Hawaii or on signs at events or luaus. Usually, it’s translated as “Welcome," which is what I’ve been taught. Then a native Hawaiian. Friend told me she never uses that phrase because she thinks it has an adult meaning. She prefers E Kipa Mai. Who uses E Kipa Mai for welcome? E Komo Mai or E Kipa Mai? Of all the...

100 years of Earthen Days | Poet Dreamersteves Shack
https://poetdreamersteve.wordpress.com/2013/12/03/100-years-of-earthen-days
A poet's walk in poetry. 100 years of Earthen Days. In Poems,writing,publishing,books,love. Asymp; 11 Comments. I feel my fingers are not mine no more. Age has mis-shapened them. And wrinkles form lines in between. The flowers look at me differently. And the air does cough and snore through my ports. Hair shoots from awkward places. I am the place mat of the Lord. A figure of speech left best to be ignored. White on top and grey in the temples where the auburn hair was born. How to shout and complain.

Author AJ Lauer: IWSG: February
http://blog.ajlauer.net/2015/02/iwsg-february.html
Armageddon: Pick Your Plot. Just a quick IWSG post from me today, from a conference (and on my phone, hence no pics or formatting! I am attending a conference this week called Creating Change. It is a conference for activists, organizers and leaders in the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) movement. Today is the first day and we have not been talking about LGBT issues at all. Today is all about race. So since it is IWSG day I am also thinking about:. Are these things you think about when writing?
