Wednesday, September 29, 2010. Ug- September's getting away from me and I only have 3 or so blog posts to show for it. I was trying to be a better writer this month! Mostly I've been looking at other people's blogs, like this one. But last Friday was amazing. Recently transplanted (from Spokane! Friend, T and I attended an American Composers Forum party at MacPhail Center for Music in Minneapolis. Can I just say, wow? Then, OMG Libby Larsen. Do you remember us? You came to our college in spokane? I also ...

Friday, January 02, 2015. Matthew Fox ("On Becoming a Musical, Mystical Bear"). A page opened at random yesterday from this book on my bookshelf that I've never read but I thought looked interesting. It's a nice thought for the new year, don't you think? Im fond of reading, I has a lot of printed books, but now I prefer to read on my e-book, its more comfortable. Some time later I make some priority, I let top-essays-uk.com. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Zamina: February 2010
http://zamina.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 21, 2010. Sunny book club meeting turns blue. I spent a lovely afternoon with my book club friends, discussing The Shadow of the Wind. It all made me wonder, why does it have to be this way? Why do we put up with incompetent managers, low wages, lack of decent benefits, and 50 hour or more work-weeks? What if more people were self-employed? Started their own businesses? Saturday, February 20, 2010. I hope so. The white cow is a little creamer I bought in Portland OR, one of my favori...

Zamina: August 2010
http://zamina.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 30, 2010. Two more new blog obsessions:. I'm trying to get interior decorating ideas, as well as ideas for craft projects, and these two blogs are amazing. This is how I've been spending my time! And I've been trying to spend less time on the computer after reading articles by Matt Richtel such as this one. From the NY Times. Wednesday, August 25, 2010. Over the last 24 hours I've been obsessing over this blog:. And if tomorrow night is cool I want to bake some bread. Where I always misjud...

Zamina: Happy 1-1-11
http://zamina.blogspot.com/2011/01/happy-1-1-11.html
Saturday, January 01, 2011. Shamrock plant in the window. Highlights of the day:. Typed up some practice sheets for my music students. Made black bean soup, potato pancakes, and quinoa for supper. Cleaned up a wet spot little Elliot left on the couch. Blogging (and trying out new pictures on my banner). More writing (yet to do). Stretching (yet to do). A teeny tiny bit of music practice (yet to do). Very "Willa Cather/Bohemian/German/Pioneer woman to put red geraniums in window during the winter. A fabul...

Zamina: August 2012
http://zamina.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 16, 2012. I've been craving a sugary butter cookie for days so today I finally made Zuckerkager. Danish Sugar Drops) from The Great Scandinavian Baking Book. By Beatrice Ojakangas. The cookies turned out thin and crisp and very sugary (in a good way) and I'm trying to not eat the whole batch in one sitting. Nancy Drew collection (yup, I've got 'em all). Jesus Pansies." (they came back to life after appearing dead for several days). My 3-year-old took this picture. Not bad, eh? Type proje...

Zamina: January 2011
http://zamina.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 12, 2011. Noble deeds and hot baths. Frost in the upstairs bathroom window. Amazing Czech cookies. Then, because I canceled our New Year's Eve party, I ended up eating the chocolate Lindt truffles and raspberry Ghirardelli squares I had bought for the party. Needless to say, I had a few monstrous headaches as a result. Now I'm back down to my few bits of dark chocolate per day (if that) and maybe some honey in my tea. By Dodie Smith. I loved. Rose never gets emotional about the seasons...

Zamina: July 2010
http://zamina.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 26, 2010. 33 Going on 14. I just spent an amazing weekend at a friend's parents' house for her bachelorette party. They live on a lake and have beautiful, sprawling grounds with a deck, patio tables, huge firepit, and sandy beach. The weather was perfect- warm, dry, breezy, and blue-skied. Surprisingly, there were very few mosquitoes out, and it was a full-moon night. Earlier in the day, we stopped to "borrow" someone's lake trampoline, which felt very rebellious. Friday, July 16, 2010.
