She's a tabby who looks a lot like Chester, but the eyes are totally different (Chester's were green; Kitten's are yellow.) And… Continue reading In the Sky With Diamonds

Status: Mourning

Sorry I've been quiet here. Over the span of one week, I've had two cats die. The house is so quiet now, not an animal within petting distance. I've never been without a cat. Chester and Edwina were both wonderful cats. Chester was my graduation present back in '03. He helped me through the roughest… Continue reading Status: Mourning

I mean, come on: food, Julia Child, cooking, writing, FOOD--you'll gain weight watching this movie...what's not to love?

By the Spread of the Table

I attended a creative writing workshop this past Wednesday, and this poem came over me after staring at a rather morbid picture prompt:   By the spread of the table And the thorn on my chair The clawing of conscience I do not dare Partake of this grisly feast, This ghoulish delight; To say that… Continue reading By the Spread of the Table
