Hi pea! Naw, I've been into this one for awhile. Just never talk about it that much. Starting thinking about it quite a bit during the summer, so I joined. I guess with the last thanksgiving kinda came to the fore front as far as what we eat, when we eat it, etc I love the whole concept of...

This is one of the components to the slow food movement: The Ark of Taste aims to rediscover, catalog, describe and publicize forgotten flavors. It is a metaphorical recipient of excellent gastronomic products that are threatened by industrial standardization, hygiene laws, the regulations of...

Good point! There are other layers to it also, in that it supports local organic farmers, offers solutions to smaller farms in terms of support and biodiversity to large areas of the earth that are constantly being mis-directed in terms of over development and under funding. That kinda stuff...

Well that is so I can s-l-o-w-l-y try to ride my bike, whilst laying down. Not bad eh?

Talking about taking Sunday off for a day of rest, and how busy our lives are, I have joined (finally!) the SLOW movement. I love it! Waiting for my first issue of mag to come in the mail, but the concept is wonderful (at least as far as I am concerned). Definetely for foodies, but also for...

When you were little, what were you promised, and what did you receive??? In my family (in the early 60's) it was a big deal to plan a trip to disneyland. never made it. i could care less, but my MOM actually spoke to me about it a couple of years ago, and how bad she felt that we never made...

Imagine - our own active volcano here on the coast! We apparently also have lots underneath the water too! Does anyone think it will be as big a 'toot' as the last one back in 1980??

well, this weekend the weather was grand. we drove up island and went to a country fair. great stuff and saw lots of people we knew. isn't it true that each person knows over 200 people, and for some strange reason, we always seem to run into them when you don't expect to?? i dunno, it was...

which was your fave and why??? me - FG all the way!! Just sooo Canuck. Boring, same dust filled living room every day. Did you ever notice the little 'barbs' that Rusty and Jerome had going between each other? They got kinda pointed sometimes. (I only noticed this when my kids were...

Well, it seems to me that in these recent years, autumn - and actually any seasonal change - means something to me. much more than my younger days. Do you feel the same? I feel the 'primal ooze' as pea often puts it. But it's true! A definite change in season, reflections on life...

Remember those games from being a kid? Which one was your fave? What was the one with the elastics all put together and you had to jump over it?

I know we all have people entering our lives from time to time, that are quite 'crazy'. Case in point, pea has up and left me for the weekend! We have a great shore for hiking along and we had planned to do this trip together!!! around the end of August, but nooo, she has to go ahead and do it...

Okay, on the coast, who is ready for the big shake. Anybody prepared???

Here I am sitting at the factory, and outside I can hear a car alarm. Making my way to the window to observe - no one even looks up from their cubicle, turns their head, or is remotely interested. So what happened with car alarms, and what will replace them to fend off evil spirits?

What do you collect - consciously or unconsciously?I am a closet collector. I would never go to an arena where there are thousands gathered to show off and trade, sell and talk about there collections, but I do admire them. I collect buttons. Old ones. I love them. Sometimes I will use...
