Opposable Thumbs
Dragons have not only two opposable thumbs on their hands, but also on their feet. This gives them stability when they land, the ability to grasp and carry heavy items, but it can make walking on rocky terrain a bit of a challenge. Also the talons on their feet are very powerful and sharp. Imagine…
Read MoreOrange and tea
If you are looking for an outstanding cup of tea, fetch yourself a big mug and put the kettle on. Cut up and orange and take a big meaty slice and juice part of it in the cup and throw in the rind, it adds flavor to the rest. Then add some crystallized ginger to…
Read MoreTruffles
Chocolate is a food group that should be exempt from calculation on diets. Let me start with that qualifier and explain that I watch my cholesterol and saturated fats very carefully, but chocolate is allowable in small doses. That being said, Linder makes a really good truffle. They do an exceptional job with strawberries and…
Read MoreTravel
Fortunately we are not hitching up a wagon to a pair of fractious cattle and working our way through the snow, but we are traveling on old earth’s interstate system. It is always an adventure when we go somewhere, see new things and feed my overactive imagination. This time we are specifically visiting my parents,…

Yes dragons snort and humans who spend time with dragons accept that behavior. Maybe not all humans, but certain types who enjoy inflicting the gross factor on others.

Do you hate waiting? I can be extraordinarily patient about certain things, but waiting for others to do their job so I can do mine, is not one of those instances. Presently I am waiting on the doctor to call in a prescription or call me for an appointment. I am going to start nagging…

The weather this winter has been erratic. Whether you believe in climate change or not, if you lived on our small patch of the earth, you would also be confused. My dog doesn’t know which coat he should wear so he is in a constant state of shed. I have 7 different coats, jackets and…
Read MoreHearts and Flowers
I hope everyone enjoys the Valentine’s Day celebrations in their lives. My husband and I always do something to make it special. For single people I always think it’s a bit mean, especially if they are not in a stable relationship. So much pressure… so unfair. Let’s face it, relationships are not about gifts, hearts…
Read MoreBoring
I am never bored, but not because I am always industrious, it is because much like shopping for tires, I can find the absurd in everything. I can formulate questions that make people pull out their own hair or if I am inclined the kinds of questions that make them want to pull out mine.…
