Thistle Adventure: December 2014

http://thistleadventure.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html

Where we get snagged we stay. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Ready for Four Muddy Feet. In this world of big box stores, supermarkets the size of football fields, and mass marketing of low grade merchandise, it is refreshing to locate a small local company with a quality product. Finally we decided to just put a blanket on the seat for Benton and be done with it. In explaining this to a friend, she suggested Mambe Waterproof Blankets. Mambe blankets have a different color on each side,. 1 Woke up ✓. 2 Air...

Read, Talk, Laugh. Monday, July 30, 2012. Goodbye.there's just no sadder word to say. Wednesday, July 18, 2012. Getting Those Green Veggies. I read about kale smoothies in that font of epicurean knowledge,. The recipes sounded really weird, but since leafy greens are not a strong point in my kitchen, I gave it a try. Wow! 1/2 cup of blueberries (if frozen, nuke for 20 seconds). 1 large kale leaf, tough central stem removed. Can also use 3/4 - 1 cup of spinach leaves or chard). Tuesday, July 10, 2012.

Read, Talk, Laugh: A Homemade Life, by Molly Wizenberg

http://wednesdaybooksonwhidbey.blogspot.com/2012/06/homemade-life-by-molly-wizenberg.html

Read, Talk, Laugh. Tuesday, June 19, 2012. A Homemade Life, by Molly Wizenberg. I have not followed Molly Wizenberg’s food blog, Orangette. I expected A Homemade Life. To be enjoyable because I’d heard good things, but didn’t anticipate that I’d be in the bath with it until the water got cold— twice. 8212;because even after deciding to stop reading and get out (hence, not to add more hot water), a single sentence of the following chapter would draw me back in. Did everybody know this except me? Say that ...

Read, Talk, Laugh. Wednesday, May 30, 2012. Wild - From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail. Last night I turned out the light 10 pages from finishing Wild From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail. By Cheryl Strayed. I've yet to finish it. I don't want it to end, so I'm saving the final words. Waiting. For what? Both on the trail and in life (they were born in the same year, 1968). During Brad's Te Araroa. Trail tramp, Ed and I went to see The Way. At the Clyde Theater. Reading about Cheryl's b...

Read, Talk, Laugh. Tuesday, July 10, 2012. That Woman: The Life of Wallis Simpson, Dutchess of Windsor. I can’t believe I spent as much time reading That Woman: The Life of Wallis Simpson, the Dutchess of Windsor,. By Anne Sebba, as I did.

Read, Talk, Laugh. Wednesday, July 18, 2012. Getting Those Green Veggies. I read about kale smoothies in that font of epicurean knowledge,. The recipes sounded really weird, but since leafy greens are not a strong point in my kitchen, I gave it a try. Wow! Here's a basic recipe, but you can use whatever you have on hand. The banana gives the smoothies the underlying sweetness, so I always include banana. I've used a peach, a large handful of strawberries, etc. 1 large kale leaf, tough central stem removed.

Read, Talk, Laugh: Mississippi Mud by Edward Humes

http://wednesdaybooksonwhidbey.blogspot.com/2012/09/mississippi-mud-by-edward-humes.html

Read, Talk, Laugh. Wednesday, September 12, 2012. Mississippi Mud by Edward Humes. I just finished the unlikely read of Mississippi Mud. My attention was drawn to this book because it took place in Biloxi, Mississippi. Ed spent his Air Force days in Biloxi teaching electronics (teaching being highly desirable to being shipped off to Vietnam), teasing my curiosity. Are you ready to read this book yet? This is a true story with the Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist Humes. September 12, 2012 at 3:51 PM.

Read, Talk, Laugh. Wednesday, June 20, 2012. Things I've Been Silent About, Azar Nafisi. When one loves an Azar, how can one ignore a book written by an Azar? That’s the dilemma I found myself embroiled in, within my head. This book-by-Azar remained on my book group bookshelf, unread, for months. It would jump out at me as I skimmed the shelf, yet I passed it by, over and over again. It was both enticing and distasteful as it stared back at me. Much of my resistance to reading Things I’ve Been Sile...
