WARNING: what you read at noon is NEVER the same poem or post a few hours later. I can't help myself. I like to noodle.
HELPFUL SUGGESTION: if you like what you've read (and even if you didn't), come back in a day or two. It'll be better. In fact, if you hated it, you must come back and read it again because it will definitely be better.

"I find that I am so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head.
I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain" -Red in The Shawshank Redemption, Stephen King

mister mystery (dedicated to the ant king)

mister mystery
my other of significance
when you’re not removing
your socks or battling screws
leaving traces of that relentless beard
scattering evidence
for me to discern
a roaming puzzle
distant from the ours… Read full post »
another sky (another try)
look!
the sky has cracked
open a glistening egg
like wild horses
like unbridled laughter
and I’ll be damned

it's opened up
blue as the sun
bright-as-your-eyes
once upon a time

Obama and his balls of steel

Food Tuesday: whts yr fave solitary comfort food concoction?
Lets face it, we are Americans! There is a holy place in our pigglywiggly appetites for our own unique and personalized version of comfort food, some dish of deliciousness that drives us from our chairs nomatter the time or place or appropriateness or even whether or not we're hungry, a ve… Read full post »

sand colored mountains
hide the simplest garden

mayday mayday!

one of my exhusbands is a diehard conservative, always votes that way, works the polls every year. he is a decent, proud man and he considers himself a patriot. he refuses to acknowlege obama is his president and refuses to hear that this presidency may do some
some questions to OS writers
it seems to me I can only see errors, typos and idiocy after I publish.
so I ask, when you see these things in your posts, what do you do?
do you put up posts and then (like me) take them down?
do you edit after they're up?

Altercocker, Sarah Palin and me

I dreamed I was sitting in my kitchen. Before me sat the oldest, most decrepit man I have ever seen, wirey grey hair exploding everywhere, calmly sucking a glass of tea through a sugar cube. He seemed to be regarding me or maybe it was the/… Read full post »
neoFoodie Tuesday: (too hot to bake!) AMISH FRIENDSHIP CAKE

This is a stupendous recipe and as old as the hills. I thought it might be a good recipe for bakers to fool around with now because it takes a couple of weeks to make and August is too damn hot to cook or bake. So make your starter… Read full post »
evil dance in the kitchen

man oh man, I get as dark as shit sometimes, you have no idea. it can go very badly when the bubble gets dumped on, mashed to pulp and buried alive. I was a sweet girl sashaying through life when suddenly the antenna went up, the blood drained… Read full post »
Happy Birthday to Yooou! (Hubbins B-day Festival)
I'll try to update as we go but that seems a little ambitious,

sad money (kvetch blog)

Big layoffs at hubbin's workplace - he's survived two or three of

missing personnel and he's doing it for a lot/… Read full post »
Peanut Butter! Banana! Choc Chip! Nearly Sugar Free! Cookies
I am the mad baker! If I were young, I'd take out the crippling loan necessary to attend one of our nation's prestigious culinary institutes and invest in becoming a chef. Food is art!
But I'm too old to be a novice in any professional kitchen that wants to make money

BLOGGING ROCKS! it's cheaper than shopping!
I am liking this blogging thing. instead of squirreling around my favorite websites, looking for bargains and things I probably wouldn't covet and/or buy if there were no such thing as websites, I am now spending vast amounts of valuable life time writing my little blog and reading yours.
Elizabeth.........I'm coming!!!
I'm sick of my family.
Don't get me wrong, I love them to pieces, each and every imperfect
assholeish one of them but today I just wish I lived way over
somewhere on some nice island in the Caribbean or the Pacific (but
nothing third world BECAUSE I'M NOT COPING WELL
TODAY!). … Read full post »
