I love gatherings of friends and family. There is comfort food., rich with flavor (like my company) and so many fat grams and calories but for a couple of hours it just doesn't matter. Plates of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, collard greens, red beans, fried okra, fried corn, homemade lemonade and iced tea with lemon cream, coconut cream, and sweet potato pies for dessert. Gatherings like these are complete with lively conversation, music, and sure there are different ingredients every time but in the end I hope to conjour up a concoction of love and camaraderie. My son's favorite feasting prayer was always, "God we are grateful for family, fellowshop, and fun." Amen to that!

Rock N Roll Wearable Art

June 29th 2008 00:17
I don't care that rock band tshirts aren't stylish for middle aged women. I love mine. I wear them everywhere on my day off.... to the store, to run errands, to appointments, or to hang with friends. In addition, I slip into flip flops, and dangly earrings to honor my inner rock star. My favorite is my Knack T shirt I procured in 1978. It is black and thin and worn with love. There is quite a bit of history in this shirt...many stories...many activities...many events.

I came across this article in Rolling Stone
I guess that I could always stitch up a comforter like this gal when I give up wearing them.



What is your most prized band t-shirt?

I am thankful that in fifty two years of marriage, running errands, bill paying, car repairs, dirty dishes, and running the parent taxi service, my parents created a model of lifelong commitment for my sister and I.

Mix Tape Madness: One for the Road

June 19th 2008 20:44
I spend a lot of time in my car and was tired of what I was listening to. I decided I would put together a new Mix tape. I thought I would make a game out of it. Here it is if you want to play:
Here are the rules: A. Find fifteen songs that represent these questions
B. One song per category

I realized early on that nothing I have done —not one single thing—did I truly do all by myself. My friends have taught me so many life lessons.. like tolerance, and kindness ,and the value of temperance, and that anything was possible, given two people with the right attitudes and enough time.

I am grateful for middle age. I am to the point in my life where the young part of me is cherished, the old me is unimaginable, and the "me" in the here and fits just right. I am not young anymore except to the 4:30 dinner crowd at Lubys. I am not old yet, except to the sixteen year old at the drive throughs who calls me "ma'am" (which I hate with a passion but it is a "Southern thing").

Maybe as I age I will become cantankerous and "hard to handle" or take on the appearance of an elder model type with the lithe body of someone who has taken yoga for twenty years, or maybe I will become a tree hugging, Birkenstock wearing, dangly earring sporting, boob sagging, hippie. I haven't decided yet.. I will live life to the fullest....'fo sho

Woman In the Song

June 11th 2008 04:00
I hear men describing the women in their lives as characters in a song.... you know what I mean..the woman who "did him wrong", "drives him crazy", keeps him "up at night", the one that "got away", or the "love of his life".

I recently had the honor of beholding the Godfather of Goth, Robert Smith and his band The Cure at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. This experience was a welcome visit from an old time friend…a favorite black sweater that has been worn with love and seen me through thick and thin.

The band really gave their fans something to talk about from the new unreleased tunes (due in September) to older numbers that only hardcore fans would know. I was amazed at the diverse crowd. Nascar fans, hippies, folkies, uptight townies, Goths, mad moms in mini-vans, collegiate types all held their metaphorical breaths while beholding the majesty that is Robert Smith

on TV, Radio or Computer?

July 9th 2008 02:51
I can’t think of a more powerful social media channel than the TV broadcasting. Sure, there are millions of people on MySpace, Facebook. Even more that watch video’s on YouTube or comment on blogs. But a major TV event can bring hundreds of millions of people to a screen the size of some 30 inches or so. In most cases it’s the major sports events such as the Olympic games,. And these people engage with the screen. They scream, cheer, curse, cry, hug, and probably show every emotion possible during a match. Can we socialize like that in the virtual world? Just asking...

Have really enjoyed the comments.
Cheers!
