I was only feeding myself last Friday night, so I decided to make a pizza for one from a piece of Naan and some leftover tomato sauce and mozzarella in the fridge. I turned the oven on to preheat and then went back to working on my computer.
I heard some clanking, metallic noises behind me but at first, I didn’t pay any attention, because it wasn’t unusual for my oven to sound like that when it preheats. My husband called and I was talking to him when I noticed the clanging was getting more persistent. Keep reading

“I saw it on Facebook. It must be true.”
NOT.
We all know that there is a lot of information on the internet, and not all of it is trustworthy. How do you decide what you can and cannot trust? I used to take it for granted that any information put forth by, say, government agencies must be reliable.
What I know now is that it is not. You have to go to the source and educate yourself to empower yourself so that you can advocate for yourself and your loved ones. What I also know is that if I post something that is true on Facebook, Facebook can slap a “False Information” claim on it and remove it. That’s what they did when I posted about a court case concerning vaccines and the CDC. (see below) Keep reading

I am following where Elen is leading.
I found this about Elen on feminismandreligion.com:
“She is Protectress of the Pathways; whether they are physical, mental, or spiritual paths. She is Guardian of all who journey.”
“Most likely a Goddess from a much earlier time who presided over the dream pathways; Elen of the Ways is a culmination of legend, myth, and history.”
I am on a journey. I mean, really, aren’t we all? I’ve never thought of myself as being the outdoor type, but after working with Elen for a few days, I am reminded that I do have a deep connection to nature, as evidenced by the bowls of rocks and shells all over my house, for one thing. The glasses of lemon thyme and basil rooting on my windowsill from my summer herb garden, for another. Also, several of my books are about tree, rocks, crystals, and angels. Keep reading

Last night I was working on a Vision Board in preparation for a class I am teaching next month. For this particuIar project, I was trying to avoid looking at the words and focus just on the images, so it took me a while to notice how many of the ads in the magazine were drug company ads.
I decided to go back to the beginning and tear out all of the pharmaceutical ads.
I could not believe it!
So many ads telling us that we are broken, faulty, but don’t worry–we can sell you a medication for that! A toxic, potentially deadly, medication.
The most egregious of these is the Gardasil ad. I recently heard this vaccine referred to as “Garda-kill” by Brandy Vaughn (a former drug company rep for Merck). Think about that. Keep reading

This is probably not something you thought you’d need to factor into your decision-making.
Maybe you’re like me. I used to think that vaccine bottles contained some form of antigen and saline, and not much else.
And then I learned about mercury. And aluminum.
I thought these things were probably bad to have injected into our bodies. Alas, I did not know vaccines contained these and other materials when I was making most of my vaccine decisions.
I started to question the process after I became a nurse. In nursing school, I was taught that nurses need a physician’s order to administer a drug. After I graduated and was out in the ‘real world’, I learned about flu shots being given out in the community at senior centers and such. I asked how nurses could be giving these shots to people without a doctor’s order. I asked about the process of informed consent, which I was taught was required before any medical intervention.

I love bread.
Not just eating it! I love making it, too.
I started making bread over twenty years ago. I made all kinds of bread. For years I believed that there was only one way to make a yeast bread, and that way included quite a bit of kneading. Not my favorite thing. During one of those lengthy kneading sessions, I even made up a new word to describe it: tediosity
And then, around 2007 or so, I discovered Zoe Francois (with coauthor Jeff Hertzberg) and her new approach to making bread. I bought the book, Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day (note: there is now a newer version of this). All you need is yeast, water, flour, and salt. Keep reading
