Category Archives: dreamsThis was a real treat when I was a child. Ends & Pieces. That would be bacon I’m talking about here. The meat packing plant would pack up all the bits that are left over when they are finished slicing up the perfect strips of bacon and they heap them onto a styrofoam tray, wrap [...]
Today you get two for the price of one … because I forgot yesterday. Or got distracted. Or something.
Without further adieu …
What’s the one food you feel like you couldn’t live without? What’s the one food you’d rather die than put in your mouth?

What’s your superpower?
My superpower is tilting at windmills. From Wikipedia -
Tilting at windmills is an English idiom which means attacking imaginary enemies, or fighting unwinnable or futile battles. The word “tilt”, in this context, comes from jousting. (emphasis mine … for … well … emphasis).
I can’t decide if I should pick my battles [...]
For today’s snack, we have a walk down memory lane:
If you could go back in time and meet your 16-year-old self, what three things would you tell yourself?
Well … now. Things just got really heavy, didn’t they? And sort of existential or something like it. I’m bleary-eyed this morning because I stayed up too [...]

Japanese lore suggests that if you fold 1,000 paper cranes, your wish will come true. What would your wish be, and what would you be willing to do 1,000 times to get it?

I was about twenty-five years old, living on my own in Washington, DC with bachelors degree in political science and international studies. I was musing about whether or [...]
Note to clothing and pattern manufacturers -
Large women can, do and desire to wear tailored beautiful clothing. Flour sacks went out with, well, I guess pig stys and muu-muus. A large, dumpy, unfitted piece of clothing only serves to make one look larger and sort of unfinished. But an article of clothing which fits [...]
Missional Tribe – Not Just Another Use of the Word “Missional”
Do a Google search on the word “missional” and you’ll get 1,200,000 hits. Search “missional” at Amazon and 1,238 missional products appear before your very eyes. It’s the Western Church word of the moment. The key to all that ails the church. The [...]
“Best Of” posts are beginning to pop up all over like dandelions in springtime. They’re sparkly and eye-catching. I always like them because they catch the year in review and give the reader a walk down memory lane. But … you knew there was a “but” coming. So often in church-y circles the “best of” [...]
