One of the latest new home construction trends is modular housing. Modular housing has in fact been around for several years but has increasingly gained market share as well as consumer acceptance. If you're considering building your next rental property instead of buying and fixing up an existing structure, should you invest in a modular home? Is there anything special you need to know about modular homes?
First off, let's make sure you're clear on what modular homes are and what they are not. Modular homes are not manufactured, or mobile homes. Far from it. A mobile home is a structure that is built completely off site, delivered to a dealership then sold to a consumer who then transports the mobile home to the pad where the mobile home will be attached. Mobile homes do have wheels on them.
Modular homes are constructed on the job site with components that are manufactured at the factory. Modular homes come in sections such as walls, floors, roofs and such then delivered to the lot where the home is then put together. A modular home is built on the job site where a mobile home is built at the factory.
Modular homes look no different than any other home. You can't tell if a property is a modular home by looking at it and modular properties come in all sizes and shapes from quaint three bedroom units to massive, luxury abodes.
Modular homes don't require any special financing. Conventional mortgages as well as government-backed loans can be used to finance a modular home and there are no additional fees or adjustments to a mortgage when financing a modular unit.
A modular home can be built much more quickly compared to building a home from the ground up and because the components are prebuilt a modular home can be less expensive as well. When you hear the term "modular" don't turn down the opportunity due to its name. You could be overlooking a solid opportunity if you do.

First of all, it's very apparent that this message was placed before me by the supreme leader himself and I'm not referring to that fat little Hobbit running North Korea. God, the creator of toe fungus and grower of hemorrhoids is obviously attempting to contact me, but feels the need to do so through a breakfast tweet instead of just hopping into one of my dreams or stopping by on a Friday night for a beer and chit-chat.
"But what about the ten commandments?" You may be asking. "Didn't God write them with his own hand?" No, I don't believe he did, and here's why. God (supposedly) created the entirety of the universe in just six days, which means the infinity of stars, the countless planets, nebula, and supernova, all took him less then a week to create but according to Exodus It took God 40 days and 40 nights to carve a few commandments into stone while Moses stood by and watched. I call bullshit on that. The God who created everything could jot those commandments down faster then Bill Cosby can roofie a waitress, yet I'm meant to believe it took him over a month! Nonsense. Forty days is far too long a time for the creator of the universe to spend on some masonry work, however, it's just about the right amount of time if you are a lowly human being with a chisel and hammer. I believe Moses himself carved those famous word upon the rock then promptly told everybody it was Yahweh's handy work so as not to let on about God's embarrassing problem.
Lets move on to all those 'holy books' next. God never actually wrote the Quran himself, nor the Book Of Mormon, nor the Bible, instead he had a pedophile, a con man, and Charlton Heston do it for him, which explains all the historical inaccuracies and contradictions. Had God written any of those books he surly would have made himself out to be less of an ill tempered dick and more of a cool Han Solo type character. In his defence, God probably has no idea what sort of drivel is etched across those pages, if he did I assume he would immediately find himself a new prophet and ask him to start work on a revised edition. Although, judging from his poor track record at choosing people to interpret his word, it would probably be Kanye West or Tila Tequila who penned it.
There is one way to find out for sure weather or not God is dyslexic and that is to read what Jesus Christ wrote on the subject. Oh, wait a minute, we can't do that because Jesus didn't leave any writings. Why is that? God felt it necessary to take on human form so that he might come down to earth and teach us how to love people we'd rather slap, and forgive those who bang our wives, yet it never occurred to him to write any of this wisdom down for future reference. Instead, he allowed his message to be passed on orally from one ignorant peasant to the next until someone finally had the foresight to jot it down decades later.
This also says a lot about his character. As a human God spent the first 33 years of his earthly life studying the family trade of carpentry. He probably learned how to make bird houses and stash boxes, book cases and catapults, yet never bothered to use any of that time to learn the art of reading and writing. I think Woody Allen nailed it when he called God and "underachiever."
The depth of God's dyslexia is so great it even effects his speech. When Moses asked God what his name was, God responded with the ever confusing, "I am that I am." What the hell does that even mean? Normal people don't answer such innocuous questions with so ridiculous a response, unless there's something a little off about them. But, maybe I can help.
I hate to see anybody missing out on the immense joy that can be derived from reading so I would like to officially offer my services to teach God how to read. If you are listening Oh, mighty maniac in the sky, meet me at my place every second Tuesday and together we can overcome this debilitating handicap and introduce you to the wonders of the written word. We will begin with one of my favorites, Dr. Seuss, who's rhymes and imagery are sure to thrill you. From there we will move on to more complicated works, like Chinese food menus and instructions from IKEA. Before you know it you'll be reading The God Delusion and realising what a dick you are.
So, God, please, do us all a favour and learn how to read and write so you can start your own book and we can stop reading the ramblings of lunatics who claim to speak for you.
See you next Tuesday (please bring donuts).

With his Religious Freedom executive order on Thursday, President Trump chose to champion the grievances of the "most defended humans on Earth," argues Nina Burleigh—white Christians in America. Before signing the order, Trump proclaimed to the audience, "We will not allow people of faith to be targeted, bullied or silenced ever again."
"According to PRRI, a nonpartisan national polling and research organization, only three religious groups—Mormons, white Evangelical Protestants and Jehovah's Witnesses—oppose gay marriage, and together those religions comprise only 19 percent of American religious people," notes Burleigh.
Trump pandered to Evangelicals right from the start during his campaign, and won their allegiance by by picking Mike Pence as his running mate. Since his election, Trump has appointed nine Evangelicals to his cabinet, including Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos, and CIA Director, Mike Pompeo.
"The order would allow a billionaire to funnel money through a religious organization, it would be secret, the group would never have to disclose it, and the billionaire donor would get a tax write-off," says Aaron Scherb, legislative affairs director for Common Cause.
But Trump's executive order's real appeal to Republicans and Evangelicals alike is its instruction to the IRS to thwart the Johnson Amendment—a law that expressly forbids religious institutions from giving money to political candidates, which has been on the books for over 60 years.

She Used to Be Mine
Ever since I listened to the first piano notes in this heartbreaking Sara Bareilles tune, it felt like home. I never truly realized how much these lyrics hit me like a brick until this past year. This past year, I grew up. I shed layers of a personality people had loved and I, honestly, loved too. I also regretted some of the personality this certain girl had created over the past few years. I grew on hard shell I never knew existed inside of me. I pushed people away and pushed the girl I used to know to the side.
When I first listened to Sara Bareilles sing these lyrics, it was a video on Youtube from from one concerts she did. She wrote this song for the musical Waitress, a factor I instantly loved due to my history of passion for musical theatre. I distinctly remember hearing the first lyrics, "it's not simple to say that most days I don't recognize me", and feeling like a knife had stabbed me in the chest. After fighting of depression and anxiety, I realized someone else was feeling the same feelings I felt. Most days, I look in the mirror and can't match my personality with the face in the mirror. I'm different than the girl who looked into that same mirror yesterday. After years of listening to this song on repeat, it still makes me feel broken but, at the same time, complete. I've been listening to Sara Bareilles for almost a decade and I've never related to a song of hers like this before. Every lyric feels gut wrenching but feels like it was written just for me. It's funny, isn't it? How a song can make us have tears streaming down our faces over heartbreak but also due to happiness?
In the scene that the song takes place in the musical Waitress, Jenna is reflecting on the person she has become over the years. She laments over the woman she used to be and who she wished she would have become instead of the person she is now. Over the past couple of months, I've turned into a girl I honestly can't believe I've become. I used to be a girl who stuck by the book and did what she was told. The girl I am now is a reckless, free spirit. She stopped caring less about school and more on what this new girl would do during her senior year of high school. I miss the girl who colored inside the lines and followed the rules. She never lied to her parents about who she was with or where she was going. I know that, in the end, this new personality growing is for the best. But, as Sara Bareilles says, she prays to "rewrite an ending or two for the girl that I knew". I wish I could rewrite a lot of things differently about who I am as the person writing this essay. I wish I could write a new ending where instead of letting go, she fought for the best friend she loved instead of letting her slip away. I wish I stopped caring about what people thought of me instead of what I think of myself. I wish that with a snap of my fingers I could let go of the daily insecurities, paranoia, and senioritis that I face daily. As Jenna says in the song, "she's imperfect but she tries, she is good but she lies, she is hard on herself, she is broken and won't ask for help, she is messy but she's kind, she is lonely most of the time" and I feel all of those lyrics every second of every day. I live, breathe, and think every word Sara Bareilles wrote for that verse. It makes me feel like Sara might have performed a Freaky Friday routine with me and lived in my shoes for a day.
With my mental illness, I can't control who I am and who I become in the end. I can't control the thoughts that send me to my doom. I can only control the fact that I can try to be happy and that I "fight to put back the fire in her eyes" as Sara Bareilles wrote in the song. Although I'm having a hard time growing accustomed to the woman I've become, I know it's who I'm meant to be in the long run. I will always remember the girl who was scared to put her feelings on the line, not strong enough to leave the toxic five year environment on her own, and who was innocent and naive. She was a beautiful soul and I would give anything to have that personality back. On April 17th 2017, I'm more rigid and broken than the girl I was yesterday. I've gone through more experiences and changed than the girl I was a week ago. Every day, the world changes and we grow with it.
To the old me, I hope you can be proud of the girl you've become.

Legend has it that in 1775 Paul Revere rode through the streets of Massachusetts warning colonists of an impending British attack, calling out repeatedly, "The British are coming! The British are coming!" In truth, Paul Revere did no such thing; however, that wrongly-attributed phrase often goes through my mind in the days leading up to the yomim tovim, albeit with a slight refrain. While Revere was warning of a military invasion, in my mind, there is an army of adorableness heading in my direction and the words that echo joyously in my head are, "The kids are coming! The kids are coming!"
I can't think of anything better than sharing the yomim tovim with family and friends, but having a full house does create a need for certain extras: in addition to being able to feed a crowd, you need to be able to seat them, sleep them and otherwise make them comfortable. So while you get busy counting up folding chairs, blankets and pillows, consider these new acquisitions that will be debuting at Hotel Eller as we welcome the year 5777.
Getting massive quantities of food hot is a top priority, and when you have a full house sometimes your oven and/or your cook top just isn't large enough to do the job right. A hotplate seemed like a valuable addition to my kitchen and for a while I had been toying with the idea of investing in one, but I never followed through because I couldn't bring myself to buy yet another kitchen item that takes up more than its fair share of space. Then, one day, I stumbled across an item called Hotmat and fell in love, not just because it was the coolest hotplate I had ever seen, but rather because its unconventional design makes it foldable, so storage is a breeze.
Created in Israel, Hotmat consists of four round Teflon-coated heating elements, two of which keep food warm while the other two get food hot. The heating elements are surrounded by a silicone frame, giving Hotmat its unique flexibility that allows it to be folded into fourths. Most importantly, the product bears both the German TUV labs and Canadian CE safety certifications. Priced at $129, Hotmat doesn't come cheap, but isn't it worth investing a little more into a hotplate that is both space-efficient and safety-tested? I think so, and, judging by the fact that Hotmat repeatedly sells out, it looks like there are plenty of others who agree with me. As to whether you can place food directly on Hotmat on Shabbos, that question is beyond my pay grade, so consult your local Orthodox rabbi for guidance.
Having lots of guests can mean having multiple babies in the house and, if you have more than one married kid joining you for yom tov with their little cutie pies, you may soon realize that one high chair just won't cut it. I set out to find a high chair that met my two most important criteria: a reasonable price and a tray that offered one hand operation. Multiple web searches brought me back to the same product time and time again: the Oxo Seedling high chair. Not only that, it is height-adjustable, reclines, has lockable wheels and a five point harness, great for keeping your little Houdini just where you want him. Equally awesome are the Seedling's color choices, which range from funky to traditional, instead of those annoyingly cute baby prints, a nice little touch that you don't typically see in a high chair that retails for $119.99. Best of all, it comes with a removable, dishwasher-safe tray cover – put it away as soon as you get it and save it for Pesach. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.
Now is the perfect time to invest in an energy-efficient Kosher Lamp. A unique product that allows you to have light when you want it, but gives you complete darkness with the twist of the shade, Kosher Lamp bears the approval of rabbonim in Brooklyn, Canada, Israel and England. Over the years the original Kosher Lamp has been upgraded to Kosher Lamp Max, with improvements including a larger light surface and an impressive selection of colors to match any decor. My personal favorite is Kosher Lamp's travel model, a miniature model with four lighting options and a lighting surface that is more durable than that of the original. Be aware that while you can replace the CFL bulb in the original Kosher Lamp series, there is no way to do that on the travel lamp, but with an LED bulb rated for 30,000 hours of life, that mighty little lamp is going to give you lots of light for a very, very long time.
Having extra pillows and blankets on hand for guests isn't that big of a deal, but running out of beds is a completely different story. You could start calling neighbors and hope that someone has extra bedrooms or you could invest in a good quality airbed, an answer that gives you sleeping space when you need it and folds up compactly when you don't. We do own several bargain basement air mattresses and while they are good to have on hand, they are probably best for younger guests. If you are looking for something that more closely resembles an actual bed, check out SoundAsleep's full line of comfort coil airbeds. Forget about misplacing your pump (yup, been there, done that), these babies come with a powerful built-in pump that can inflate or deflate your bed in less than three minutes. (If you enjoyed watching the dead come to life in the graveyard scene from "Fiddler on the Roof," spend three minutes watching this thing inflate – it is actually pretty cool!). Because they blow up to a height of 18 inches, your guests won't feel like they are sleeping on the floor and, because they are super comfortable, your guests will get a good night's sleep.

Do you feel like you're living in a box and you have too much stuff, but not enough space? Don't fret! Believe it or not, it's very simple to organise your small, cluttered home or apartment and make the most of your space. Here are some great tips to help you maximise the space.
Rotate seasonal clothing
If you have a small closet, or don't even have one at all, consider rotating your clothing by season. Keep anything that's not weather appropriate in a container, suitcase, or vacuum sealed bag until it's needed again. Make sure the clothing is clean and add cedar balls, moth balls or lavender bags to deter insects or moths. Keep the bags under your bed for example so it's out of the way, or consider getting self storage.
Go vertical
If you're adding shelves or bookshelves in your home, use the full height of the wall. The more shelves you have, the more storage space!
Photo: House
Multi-functional furniture
Get furniture that will have multiple functions. For example, a bed with storage compartments built in, a dining table that can be used as an office or work space during the day, while also having the ability to pull-out, pull down, extend or fold to suit your needs and space.
Photo: IKEA
Find and use hidden storage spaces
Utilise all of your hidden storage spaces! Use storage boxes, containers or baskets and store them under your bed with your seasonal clothing, linen or other items. Hang a skirt around your coffee table and store items underneath. If you've got space above your fridge, use it to store your lesser-used kitchen gadgets.
Hang the TV
Consider getting a TV hanging device to keep the TV out of the way. This will create more space and you can even use the area underneath for extra storage.
Don't forget the corners
Every room has four corners, so make the most out of them! A corner table is perfect for storage, while giving you extra room space.

Find storage offsite
Whether you want to just clear the clutter, store your seasonal clothes, or you just don't have room, use a self storage unit. Our self storage units are all secure and individually alarmed for peace of mind and you will always have access to your space 365 days a week, 7 days a week from 6am to 9pm. Need help finding the right size to suit you? Check out our storage calculator and see how much you can fit into the space, or speak to one of our storage experts on 02 8758 0000

"Poppyfields" as written by and Christopher Anthony John Martin William Champion....
Smoke is rising from the houses
People Burying their dead
I ask somebody what the time is
But time doesn't matter to them yet
People talking without speaking
Trying to take what they can get
I ask you if you remember
Propekt, how could I forget?
Here it comes
Don't you wish that life could be as simple,
As fish swimming round in a barrel.
When you've got the gun?
Oh and I'll run
Here it comes
We're just two little figures in a soup bowl
Trying to get the anaconda control
When I wasn't one
Here I lie
On my own in a separate sky
Here I lie
On my own in a separate sky
I don't want to die
On my own, here, tonight
Here I lie
On my own in a separate sky
People Burying their dead
I ask somebody what the time is
But time doesn't matter to them yet
People talking without speaking
Trying to take what they can get
I ask you if you remember
Propekt, how could I forget?
Here it comes
Don't you wish that life could be as simple,
As fish swimming round in a barrel.
When you've got the gun?
Oh and I'll run
Here it comes
We're just two little figures in a soup bowl
Trying to get the anaconda control
When I wasn't one
Here I lie
On my own in a separate sky
Here I lie
On my own in a separate sky
I don't want to die
On my own, here, tonight
Here I lie
On my own in a separate sky

+1My InterpretationI think this is about World War 1... it really sounds like it's about a war. Poppies are a symbol of World War 1 because they grew in Flanders field after all the blood spilled there, so that's my interpretation of the title.
+1General CommentYes, dramaelf - this song I believe refers to WWI as well. It is clearly about war, in my opinion...
"Drums... here it comes.
Don't you wish that life could be as simple
As fish swimming around in a barrel
When you've got the gun?"
'Drums, here it comes' is showing the start of the war... soldiers would often hear the sound of drums when preparing to race out and attempt to invade enemy trenches. These lines clearly refer to the feelings of soldiers when they're carrying a gun, about to end another life and enter a warzone... frightened beyond belief...
This song is so emotional, and the lyrics are breathtaking. Each time I listen to this song it really pulls at my heartstrings, as the title 'Poppyfields' (the short instrumental afterwards) I believe refers to the poppies that grew in the battlefields of Gallipoli in WWI, after the tragic ANZAC campaign.
Of course, it may not be explicitly about the Gallipoli invasion - it's probably just about war in general, but that is just how I personally interpret the song and it holds a very special meaning to me.
"Here I lie,
On my own, in a separate sky"
These lines really tug at my heartstrings. The way Chris sings them is so... heartfelt and beautiful. I believe they are from the viewpoint of a soldier in the middle of the battlefield, just at peace by himself amongst the horrible chaos and hell that is happening around him.
"I don't want to die
On my own, here tonight."
Self explanatory... but so desolate and sad. The soldier doesn't want to die... away from his family, in a war he has no control over. The song is particularly sad because the entry of Poppyfields seems to imply an unsettling peace washing over the song... as though the soldier has, in fact, moved on and found peace elsewhere.
+1General CommentAs with most if not all of you, this song has the mesmerizing effect of making me...Feel.
Not many songs these days do but there's something about hearing Chris' voice resounding with that "Here I lie, on my own in a separate sky "...my mind is left dazed by this...everything from melody to lyrics just harmonizes with thoughts of life at times.
Is it a war song? maybe. But for me, it's simply put on of the most captivating songs ever penned. Hopefully somebody out there agrees with me.krisomnia0903on October 14, 2009 Link
+1My OpinionI love this song! It's probably my favourite Coldplay song.coldplay108on January 09, 2010 Link
+1General CommentThis song and "Glass of Water" are my favorites from the EP, and should ahve been included in "Viva La Vida".
My interpretation of this song is that it is certainly a war/battle - but not in the way that you think. I don't believe that Chris is a writer that is necessarily obvious when it comes to songs such as these. Of course, this song has all the makings of a story about a real war, and Chris very well may have used one as a model. But I believe this is about a personal war within one's self, trying to figure out how to get out of it.
"I ask somebody what the time is, but time dosent matter to them yet."
This person is asking merely for help, for advice, but whoever they are asking can't help them, or dosent know how to answer thier question. They may see it as an akward situation and try to shy away from it, leaving the person in need lost again.
"People talking without speaking, trying to take what they can get."
This person and others like him are perhaps thinking to themselves, gathering thier surroundings or memories of thier own past, and trying to find solutions or answers. They are essentially talking to themselves in their mind, without saying it out loud. Talking without speaking.
"Drums! Here it comes."
The thing/thought/person that started the problem is approaching this troubled person - like the sound of drums signaling a battle - the internal battle is beginning for this person.
"Don't you wish that life could be as simple as fish swimming around in a barrell when you've got the gun?"
This person is wondering why this problem has to be so hard, and realizes that the outcome is in his own hands (when you've got the gun)
"Oh and I run, here it comes."
the thing/thought/person that started the problem is still coming, and this person decides to try and outrun it - think of other things, distract himself - run away.
"We're just two little figures in a soup bowl trying to get behind some kind of control, but I wasn't one."
The thing/thought/person has been chasing this person to his/her limit around what he/she may consider a limited space - he/she can only run so far (two little figures in a soup bowl), but the thing/thought/person has the upper hand, the advantage, and the troubled person fears it (but I wasn't one.)
"And here I lie on my own in a seperate sky. I don't want to die on my own here tonight, but here I lie on my own in a seperate sky."
This person cannot stand to be alone in this ordeal and is searching for anything or anyone that he/she can rely on to help him/her get out. This person feels apart from the rest of the world because he/she is perhaps not being listened to or considered (on my own in a seperate sky). This person feels he/she is on the verge of exploding or breaking down, and is afraid that if it is to happen, that there will be no one or nothing to help he/she recover (I don't want to die on my own here tonight). He/she then realizes that at this moment at least, he/she is are still alone and just thinking about it hasn't helped him/her make progress. A final realization of what he/she already knew - "But, here I lie on my own in a seperate sky."
The ending leaves the question open ended - does this person get the help they need? Do they get everything figured out? And perhaps leads the listener to wonder if they, themselves, are going through something similar. That is what I thought upon listening to it for the first time, and I consider it to be not only one of coldplay's best songs, but one of thier more thought provoking ones as well. I think it is proven by the many takes on what it means, which cements it's brilliance.
0General CommentProbably my favorite off the EP. Really reminds of that old Coldplay sound(b-side songs, pre-Parachutes, etc), Then it has a little of that X&Y sound added to it.
Kind of wish they would go back to that sound =\
0"Don't you wish your life could be as simple
As fish swimming around in a barrel
Where you've got the gun?"
One of the many amazing lyrics from Chris Martin.
I also have to add I saw Coldplay live on Saturday and truly it was one of the best concerts I have ever been to in my life. Chris has an amazing voice and is such a brilliant and charismatic frontman.
Best night of my life.Flag WarholMetricSystemon November 26, 2008-2I do too :(Flag evasinclairon November 29, 2008

0General CommentWhy did Chris Martin miss this song off the original Viva La Vida?! Its amazing, back to Parachutes days.
0My OpinionYet here is another song I feel is Coldplay wanting to end their career. In History Prospekt willingly marched to his death along with his comrades. The members of Coldplay are constantly on tour and away from their families but to turn most of their time and energy to their family would mean they would have to put their career on hold.
"Now here I lie on my own in a separate sky
And here I lie on my own in a separate sky
I don't wanna die on my own here tonight
But here I lie on my own in a separate sky"
Those lines are heartbreaking. As a celebrity he's high up in the air, adored but he's untouchable by many. He doesn't want to be alone on that distant plane, but that's the price you pay for being famous. He says he doesn't want to die on his own, but HE'S STILL on his own seperate sky. He's still famous, but he's ready to end it all. But as long as he's famous he's still going to be on his own seperate sky.
When I hear this song I just hope he makes the right descision, I love their music, but you shouldn't sacrifice yourself for fame or even your fans.
0Amen to that.Flag The_Wandereron July 20, 2009

The Cebert Wealth team was behind all game, just short by one run, when in the last inning they came alive and beat the Florida Eye team by one run.

Of all the things I could have missed...
... in my post regarding My Fair Lady playing a Wii...
She read the column tonight and pointed out how I never said anything about her playing two games at once, one on the Wii and the other on the DS. I looked through the column and sat there dumbstruck that I'd completly breezed right past that.
It was, after all, the point of the column itself that My Fair Lady was willingly, gleefully in fact, playing two videos games on two separate systems at once as I sat there in utter shock. Yet it completely escaped my memory when I actually wrote the column.
I could be a smartass and say it actually didn't flow well with what I was saying and then I could look all snobby and highfalutin like some other writers and that a small digression took away from the larger narrative.
But then I'd be completely lying about it and I feel bad enough as it is. Obviously I'm completely losing my marbles as I approach the salad years and I should come to accept that. When I start reposting prior stories and claim them as new it is time to put me out to pasture, boys and girls.
At this rate, that should be about this time next year.

Community Heroes: Car in River Rescue
KLEW Community Heroes is a new segment where we honor people who have taken on the challenge bettering our community.
For our first installment, we go to Asotin, where everyday people jumped into action, and became heroes. A medical emergency led to a car in the river, with frigid water, and an unresponsive driver, first responders and bystanders saved a life.
"A hero is somebody that does something beyond the normal, they do something that someone else doesn't necessarily do, or want to do," said City of Asotin Police Chief, Monte Renzelman. And he saw just what a hero looks like in the winter of 2015. "We ended up having a vehicle drive off behind us here and into the river."
It was January, and freezing outside. "We found that there as actually someone still inside the car, and at that point people jumped into action," he said. But matters were only getting worse, the car was sinking before their eyes. "The cab of the car was going under water, that's when a group of people thought we need to take some action, and that when they went into the water to save this individual," said Chief Renzelman. That group of people was Chief Renzelman, an Asotin County deputy as well as a custodian from Asotin High School, and the father of student. "Myself, deputy Forsberg, Ryan Webber and Chris Seagrove, we were the four that went into the water."
They realized the person in the car was unconscious and now, completely under water. "This individual was completely submerged in water by this time, so there comes your hero," Chief Renzelman explained, "Chris Seagrove was in the water with this individual completely underwater doing something to physically save him." They then pulled the man out of the car and got him to medics who were able to save his life. "Chris made that conscious decision to do that, the vehicle could have went down stream, it could have flipped over so now he's trapped inside, any number of things. And he's just a citizen, minding his own business, ten minutes later he's inside a vehicle to help somebody. That's what a hero is."
We want to feature more stories of people in our community working to make it a better place. It can be an incident like this one, or something like a person who spends their own time volunteering. No matter the story we want to hear about it. to nominate someone all you have to do it email firstname.lastname@example.com with the name of the person you think is hero, and a description of why.

Swansea University teaches dirty foreign students how to use the toilet
STUDENTS of Swansea University – tell us how you go to the toilet? Posters are on the walls of Swansea University are advising students how to use the toilet. The University says this is not taking the rise out of students hygiene habits, but addressing cultural differences.
The BBC notes:
In some countries in South East Asia where people squat to use the toilet there are posters informing Westerners how to use them.
In parts of the Middle East where plumbing systems cannot cope there are posters informing people not to put toilet roll down the toilet but in bins.
So. No harm done, then. No racism. The posters are just there for those who don't know the rules – Asians, Arabs and anyone on a day trip from the Valleys. As the posters also show, people who do not know how to use Swansea toilets are always black.
A university spokeswoman assures us:
"Swansea University is a multi-cultural campus community and the informational posters were produced, for use in both male and female facilities, to help address cultural differences that were unfortunately causing damage and hygiene issues. The information was produced in conjunction with the International College Wales Swansea (ICWS) and displayed in key areas around the campus. Since the inception of these posters, the situation has greatly improved in the affected areas."
The soiled toilet paper on the floor was placed there by non-British students, like Mustapha and Samira? The footprints on the toilet seat were the result of Young Kim Park's weak bladder? It's not the locals socking the floor and missing the bowl. It's them – the foreigners with their odd bottom habits.
Of course, this is all bunkum. Most British students urinate freely in the street, having first sought out a bin or car wheel arch, and nine out of ten males prefer the kitchen sink to the sink in the bathroom or shower tray. For British women it's all about Bounty Tissue, flower pots and jeggings.

Jane Eyre with Total Language Plus
I will fully admit British Literature is not my favorite genre but my daughter and I do have a soft spot for Jane Eyre. Ariel had her acting debut as a schoolgirl in the play Jane Eyre over at Bethel college a few years back and has fond memories of it. For me I sat through countless rehearsals and I too memorized many of the lines.
Rochester and Jane are such deep, complex, "different" characters that it makes for interesting discussions. It's for this reason and my daughter's affinity that we chose it for study in our co-op this year.
What I liked as well was the options that the Total Language Plus guide had for this one. Many times at this level I feel like I'm assigning writing and writing project and quite honestly I get burned out of giving feedback as well as the kids getting burned out on the actual writing. With this guide there are options in each unit for "re-writing and reciting". We used these as a class activity each week to re-write portions of the text into our normal conversational language and then present them dramatically.
It's been fun and has added a bit of variation to the usual high school literature routine. For instance here is a typical section from Jane Eyre:
"I dreamt another dream, sir; that of Thornfield hall was a dreary ruin, the retreat of bats and owls. I thought that of all the stately front nothing remained but a shell-like wall, very high and very fragile-looking...."
the student turn it into something like this...
I had a dream of Thornfield hall, only it was not standing but a ruins where bats and owls lived. The only thing left was one wall that was very high and about to crumble.
That is just a small section but to give you an idea of the type of language and the "translation" that is done.
Actually thinking about it, this could be a great activity for many of the books you read. What's more fun that putting something into the students own words and reading it dramatically. Okay, I'm sure some students can think of "something" more fun but it would add a twist to their next reading book!
Of course with the guides there are also writing assignments and we have done some of those as well. Because of the complex characters we've found there to be many opinions on their actions which had made for interesting reading!
Jane Eyre is a thick book with some VERY rich vocabulary! But if you can avoid being scared off by the thickness of the book itself and can take your time with it you will be rewarded.

I met you at the recent IAHE convention and am so happy I did! I had just ordered my children's language arts for next year (with a heavy heart; not convinced it was the right way to go) when a friend began telling me about your product (that's when we showed up at your booth). Thank you for explaining it all to me (and again to my husband). After poring over the first book, we have decided to cancel the LA program and jump in to Total Language Plus (we will be ordering the other books soon).ReplyDelete
I do have a question/concern however. We don't do fantasy reading at all, and so will not be reading Charlotte's Web or any other fantasy-related book (personal preference), and we are wondering if we skip those few books, will the children be hindered? Thanks for all your help!
So glad you're going to give TLP a try for the coming year. You can pick and chose the books without any hindrance. The only ones I recommend doing all of are the first 6 which includes Charlotte's Web. The reason for this is that all the basic parts of speech are "taught" in these first six guides. If you feel your child already has covered those with another program then there is no problem at all. If you still need that teaching I would recommend using a grammar handbook (like Blue book of grammar, Writers Inc. etc...) where you work through the ones you miss on your own. If you need further assistance or clarification please private message me at email@example.com and I can maybe give you more direction.ReplyDelete

Over 100,000 fans have signed up to attend upcoming campaign events for self-avowed socialist candidate for the Democratic nomination for president, Bernie Sanders.
The Sanders campaign reports that so far they've had 103, 249 people sign up for the 3,520 campaign events that have been scheduled.
Both in-person, live events are planned as well as Internet-based events.
Sanders is also going great guns on social media with #FeelTheBern and #Bernie2016 hastags proliferating at an amazing rate.
But this huge number of signups proves that Sanders has a full, nation-wide campaign. Sanders's staffers have planned over 3,500 separate events this summer and fall.
Sanders's campaign is still growing by leaps and bounds, a fact worrying Democrat Party stalwarts in general and Hillary Clinton's campaign in particular.
Early in July, Sanders proved that he could pack the house when he filled a 10,000-seat arena in Wisconsin, the same arena that Hillary couldn't fill a week earlier.
Earlier in the month, reports revealed that the Clinton campaign is "worried" over Sanders, as his crowds continue to grow—this despite that Hillary herself claimed she wasn't really worried about Bernie.
But as early as May, ABC's George Stephanopoulos said he was worried that Sanders's campaign could "weaken" Hillary's campaign.

after having spent most of the recent weeks in my lovely excentric pirate boots now that is autumn i realized my shoe collection is nothing but boots and sneakers.
i'm also getting in touch with many facets of my personality they were hidden at some dark, wet place deep inside of me. bit scarry. i'm going to visit my psychologist for the first time on monday. and i'm a bit nervouse. i don't know what to tell to her. guess she will know what and how to ask. but i'm so afraid she will really diagnose me with some kind of mental illness. but from the other view that is why i go to see her. becouse i know something happened. i go there to put the small pieces together to see the whole great picture for the first time.

I've known since I was 6 years old that I wanted to be an author. I remember my first grade teacher laughing at me when I told her so. That only made me more determined and I finished my first novel-length story in 8th grade. It was an epically bad sci-fi/fantasy/mystery/romance mash-up and writing The End was one of the proudest moments of my young life.
Jean-Luc Cavalier has only ever cared about three things: sex, booze, and the dangerous missions he undertakes with HORNET. Laissez les bons temps rouler is more than a Mardi Gras motto—it's the way he lives his life. But all that changes the night he rescues Dr. Claire Oliver from deadly mercenaries.
Reckless Honor Giveaway!
Jean-Luc is here! Now available in both e-book and paperback! This is my 11th book, but release days never get old. And I'm so excited about this one because, yanno, it's Jean-Luc! The sexy, sweet, multi-lingual dirty talking Cajun is now available to steam up...read more

Winchester MP Steve Brine has welcomed a 'major step forward' for late night safety at the city's railway station after it was announced the platforms will now be staffed until 11pm.
The MP held a packed public meeting, ASKSWT, back in November 2013 which gave rail users the chance to put questions directly to South West Trains boss Tim Shoveller. Among the issues raised were the lack of on-train wi-fi, capacity in the car park and late night safety.
Mr Brine said; "We've made progress on many of the areas needing attention with wi-fi finally coming online last year, a new decked car park and footbridge installed and vastly improved cycling facilities.
"Late night staffing however remained a key concern as passengers arriving back into the station late at night, especially women, said they felt vulnerable and wanted to see a much later staffing presence.
"I know it's not been easy for South West Trains to achieve this, particularly in a time of incredibly tight budgets, but it's really pleasing they have made what is a major step forward. I know my constituents, many who pay a great deal to use the trains, will be pleased to hear it and feel greatly reassured."

This is sooooo cute! I usually just put unclaimed papers in a tray. Some are finally claimed but most aren't. The sad part is students don't earn credit for their work. I need to rethink what I do... hmmm? Thanks for sharing your idea.ReplyDelete
Very cute! I have a similar system, but my title is not nearly as clever. Just a simple "No Name". It really helped me out last year.ReplyDelete

Lead Minister
David and Kelly Richter met in Nashville, TN, in the fall of 2000 while Kelly was working for a local troubled girl's home and David was serving as an intern with Reformed University Fellowship at Vanderbilt University. They were married in November of 2002 and almost immediately moved to Edinburgh Scotland to do short term mission work with a local city-center Free Church. After their return from the mission field, David and Kelly attended Covenant Theological Seminary in St Louis, MO, where Kelly earned a masters in counseling degree and David a masters of divinity. Then, in the summer of 2007, they moved to Rochester, MN, where they lived and worked at L'Abri Fellowship and David served as the associate pastor at Trinity Presbyterian Church. In May of 2012, the Richters were called by Christ the King Boston to plant a church in Somerville and to become the next site congregation of their multi-congregational church. Then, in January of 2013, the Richters moved to Somerville and began the work to make this vision a reality. The Richters have two wonderful children, Sam and Luci.
Assistant Minister
Matt and Naomi met in the Boston area and were married in 2015. Matt, a graduate of Beeson Divinity School, had served churches in Ireland and Birmingham before coming to Somerville in 2013 to join the work of Christ the King Somerville. He was ordained as a minister in the PCA in October of 2014. Naomi is originally from near London, England, but grew up mostly in Connecticut. She moved to Somerville in 2010, and since then has taught children at Park Street School in Boston's Beacon Hill neighborhood. In July of 2017, Liam Matthew Owens was born, bringing new joy, love and chaos to the Owens family.
Women's Discipleship Director
Originally a native of Seattle, Washington, Paige has loved living in Somerville for the past five years and has found many ways to make it home - not least of which has been participating in the CTKS church plant from its first days. Paige holds a master's degree in social work from Washington University in St. Louis, and has worked in multiple jobs as a clinical social worker and therapist, initially in Rochester, MN before Boston. She currently spends most of her days hanging out with her three spunky kids and spunky husband, and thinking about how God's grace intersects with the everyday moments of real life.

|More information:
"This book - the first retrospective publication of Flavin's art since 1969 - features the artist's most significant light works, beginning with a pivotal series of constructed boxes with attached incandescent or fluorescent lights, called icons, made from 1961 to 1963. These icons demonstrate the influence of painters such as Barnett Newman as well as object makers such as Marcel Duchamp. Works spanning Flavin's career are discussed in depth, including examples that integrate light with the surrounding space and show the particular characteristics of blended fluorescent light, large-scale installations, and constructed corridors. The book also features reproductions of Flavin's drawings, which reveal his thought processes, working methods, and the wider range of his interests." "Three critical essays offer overviews and new interpretations of Flavin's work, while an extensive chronology, comprehensive bibliography, and exhibition history present scholarly data never before available. In addition, this book includes Flavin's seminal text "' ... in daylight or cool white.' an autobiographical sketch," originally published in Artforum in 1965, and two interviews with the artist - one from 1972 and the other from 1982." "With many new color reproductions, Dan Flavin: A Retrospective captures the artist's challenging contribution to twentieth-century art and will be the authoritative volume on Flavin for years to come."--Jacket.

by Ian Yates
Alex Kerr with Kathy Arlyn Sokol (authors), Tetsuji Fujihara (illustrator), Another Kyoto, Sekai Bunka Publishing, 2016. 336 pgs.
In Another Kyoto, we have a meticulously written, deeply thought out, original, enjoyable and at times brilliant examination into just how architecture connects to deeper meaning in the old capital of Japan. However, to be direct and upfront, this book may not be for everyone.
It may not be for you if you are a casual tourist, or a first-time visitor to the old governmental and current cultural capital of Japan. It may not be for you if Kyoto is simply a daytrip after Harajuku and Akihabara, or if your visit to the city is placed directly between seeing AKB48 and heading to Osaka to catch NMB48. There are hundreds of guidebooks for those visitors, and Kyoto will open up its magic to them, too… but this book is for a different reader.
Of course, it may be that reader is you. This book may be for you if you find yourself entering the sites of the city for a second, third, tenth time. It may be for you, if while there, you turn just slightly away from that shine catching everyone else's eyes and focus on something that is beautiful in a way that you just can't quite explain. And it very well may be for you, if between Harajuku and Akihabara, or while waiting for AKB or NMB, you want to know and understand just a bit more about the city. If this sounds like you, then there is no better book available.
So, now that we are hopefully on the right footing to begin, let's open up and meet our guide for a very different trip around the well covered historical behemoth of Kyoto. Let's allow Alex Kerr along with co-author Kathy Arlyn Sokol and the beautiful illustrations of Tetsuji Fujihara to show us another Kyoto.
This work should be described as an essential and wonderful further step in the English writing available on the subject of Kyoto. However, as the initial warning was meant to hint towards, this is not a simple book, nor an easy read, even though the tone does consistently remain friendly and casual. The first hint towards this difficulty is that a quick search will reveal that the work contains neither a map, nor any type of annotations or indexing. So, while the language flows beautifully, it runs in a stream of conscious fashion, bouncing from idea to idea and place to place. Therefore, when approaching this book, you should either have a) a good knowledge of the destinations covered or b) a city guide close at hand to reference and mark with all the places you are going to visit.
Mr. Kerr here will act as our knowledgeable and friendly professor, never hand-holding or speaking down to the reader, but giving us, in this relatively short work, a masterclass in aesthetics, architecture and Japanese beauty. Kerr's single concession towards helping the reader is to provide numerous sketches, which demonstrate the author's points, while also turning this study into a work of art, as visually appealing as it is mentally stimulating.
Alex Kerr has been a staple in Japan for many years, known and respected as an expert on Japanese drama, art and calligraphy, but also known controversially for his tough, though honest and loving, view of Japan in his previous book, Dogs and Demons. With Another Kyoto, Kerr turns the focus away from the future and back to the history.
Each chapter of Another Kyoto takes on a loose topic and then whirls the reader around the city to any and every possible place where its depths can be revealed. Many of the topics centre on architecture at its most basic levels; "Gates," "Walls," "Floors" and "Screens" are just a handful of the chapter titles. These chapters begin with the specific architectural feature suggested by the title and grow out into more detailed and widespread explorations of the meanings behind them. "Gates," for example, takes us quickly from the entrance to Higashi-Honganji on to the newer entrance to Heian shrine and then back down south and then up the mountain to the jaw-droppingly photogenic Fushimi Inari. This journey serves to illustrate how these gates, the ones rushed past after paying an entrance fee, are not merely the separation of the outside from the inside, but the embodiment of what the author terms as "Limination," or "doing away with ambiguity".
Kerr makes an interesting and counterintuitive point here. While Japan is often seen as a difficult culture, or at least more ambiguous than many Western cultures, the separation of ambiguities is always clear. The ambiguities of office politics are left at the door to the Izakaya bar, and the ambiguities of outside relationships are left at the gate, or Genkan to one's own home. As such, these Kyoto gates are nearly magical in allowing guests a clear line of entrance, where all the extraneous troubles are left outside, at least for a short time. Such magic requires more than just a door, and readers are encouraged to appreciate the time and detail put into these magic separation lines.
In-between such specific (though widespread and free flowing) investigations into architectural features, Kerr also looks at the theory of Shin Gyo So, or Formal, Semi-formal, Informal. Here, China is placed in the role of Shin, Korea in Gyo and Japan in the lowly So. Again, through specific examples, Kerr paints an interesting idea, that while Japan took on the place of the poor, simple informal artist, the true beauty of Japan is in making the So, the low and informal, absolutely perfect and breath-taking. While classic Chinese art may shine, Kerr would argue that the single flower placed in the grey vase in an empty alcove holds far more beauty, and all the more so for its lack of shine.
All these exploration of art and architecture eventually leads Kerr straight to hell. Pardon? Well, Kerr takes us in the final chapter to a far lesser known part of Kyoto in Senbon Enma-do, an oft ignored temple near Tenmangu Shrine. Enshrined here is Enma the king of Japanese Hell and the one who stands in judgement, deciding who shall pass on to heaven and who shall be sent to hell. Kerr ends the book here in a very personal and esoteric way, by confronting the statue of Enma and allowing himself to be judged. What does Enma have to say? You'll have to reach the ending of the book yourself to begin to understand. Or, maybe you actually have to make the trip out the back of Tenmangu and over to Enma-do and confront the devil himself. Maybe bring your copy of Another Kyoto, sit in the courtyard, amongst the architecture, near the statue of the devil, and put it all together.

Because things don't always work out the way you thought they would - both in life & in the kitchen...
Instructions Included (French Fridays with Dorie: Goat Cheese & Strawberry Tartine)
For example, preparing ramen noodles. If you look on the side of a package of ramen, there are instructions on how to prepare them. Somewhere out there, there must be a soul who is making ramen for the very first time and needs a little help getting it right.
Toothpaste. If you ever check out your toothpaste box - directions. (Hint - ancillary equipment required to get full effect of toothpaste. Hopefully, you own one already.)
I am sure the list of non-instruction instructions is endless.
This week's non-recipe recipe saved itself from ludicrous simplicity by bringing forward the concept of a most excellent flavor combination.
Strawberries & goat cheese & balsamic vinegar.
Now, for those of you who need a recipe, it kind of goes like this.
Grill some bread. (I used a multi-grain loaf from the grocer's bakery).
Spread some creamy goat cheese on top. (I did this while the bread was slightly warm. The goat cheese was one that I found in our local co-op and was made by a local source).
Slice some berries and spread over top.
Drizzle with balsamic. (I used an espresso balsamic.)
If desired, sprinkle with cracked peppercorns. (I recommend pink peppercorns.)
Stuff your face with the delicious results. (You don't really need directions for that, do you???)
If only life were as intuitive as ramen, toothpaste and tartines...
Speaking of life, Culinary Kid finished school this week. Next week is state testing and then graduation in two weeks. That's. Pretty. Real. I am ready and not ready all at the same time.
I am not sure that I am ready to be a parent to two almost adult children. I am pretty sure they didn't ask for my permission to grow up so fast. On the plus side, it is pretty stinking cool to have two extra people in the house that are capable of doing house chores.
In other news, my CSA share started up this week. The goat cheese/ strawberry combination is going to have to be revisited when strawberries show up in the box. (We are a couple weeks out from berries up here.) This is our second year with this CSA and even though it is a little bit of a pain to get to, the experience far outweighs the aggravation. The couple that runs the farm and their daughter are great people and very passionate about what they do. And they grow some pretty darn good fruit and produce.
In anticipation of the onslaught of vegetables, I have been spending time each evening scouring through stacks of cookbooks. I have to find something besides pestos and salads to use up all those greens. If it was green and showed up in the box, I probably made a pesto out of it. I am still working off last summer's pesto bounty. Two cookbooks that I think are going to get a lot of use this summer? Roots by Diane Morgan and Vegetable Literacy by Deborah Madison. I've also been spending a bit of time with Sundays at Moosewood Restaurant and Vegetarian Everyday (David Frenkiel/ Luise Vindahl). People can tell where I sit in the living room because that's the spot with the stack of cookbooks next to it.
I hope everyone's summer is getting off to a good start.
Peace out.
This post participates in French Fridays with Dorie.

"If only life were as intuitive as ramen, toothpaste and tartines…" Truer words were never spoken, Cher :)ReplyDelete
I love CSA programs. I'm such a spaz that I already started looking them up in DC, since (she says, with no degree of certainty) that's where we're looking to go next. In 2 years. I have my priorities in check. I'll have no place to live, but by God, I'll have vegetables!! haha. When I left DC 6 years ago, there weren't any programs available. Now, I'm happy to say, there are. PHEW!ReplyDelete
Beautifully done, my friend...hooray for the non-recipe! And congrats on the upcoming graduation!ReplyDelete
Good post Cher, and have to agree on intuition. But I´ll be one of those first time ramen noodles person, don´t even know what they are. The tartines are fantastic! Can´t wait for sweet strawberries to appear.ReplyDelete
A beautiful platter of deliciousness just waiting to be gobbled up by a strawberry and goat cheese lover like myself! I like non recipe recipes, especially with a just a few perfect ingredients -like strawberries and goat cheese, and your bread looks pretty good too!ReplyDelete
Congratulations on the upcoming graduation, I remember those days-they pass too quickly, - just enjoy every moment;-)
Shampoo. Has instructions. lol. The last one is famously "Repeat" which, of course, is what this recipe for a tartine doesn't have but should as I am guessing we all did repeat. I repeated with Cherries.ReplyDeleteReplies
You are too funny! I never realized these things had instructions on them! Lol!Delete
I wish my son would read the instructions on how to use soap. How great you CSA is already starting to come in... I hope it fits with some of our recipes.ReplyDelete
Congrats on the graduation! You had me laughing out loud as I read about the instructions on toothpaste. I didn't know they had instructions on the box. And Espresso Balsamic sounds delicious…a great flavor addition! Have a wonderful weekend, Cher!ReplyDelete
Yes, wasn't this an amazing combination! I would never have tried this alone, now I am hooked.ReplyDelete
Kids grow up too quickly but you do have a point about having extra help with chores. :) I hope you enjoy your second year with the CSA. Being part of one really expanded my culinary horizon. Great choice of cookbooks you have there. Personally, I love Nigel Slater's Tender (both volumes). Incredible source of ideas.ReplyDelete

lol I have a stack of notebooks, post its and magazines next to my spot! I can't wait to see what you do with your CSA!!ReplyDelete
I had a mini crisis when my youngest graduated from high school! I've always wanted to do a CSA. One of these days......So many interesting balsamic vinegars. I've never had espresso balsamic but it sounds good.ReplyDelete
Congrats on the graduation! Hope you like the recipe again when you try it in the future.ReplyDelete
Roots is on my 'to buy' list, for certain. It sounds great. I'm going to go to a cookbook swap this summer, which will justify adding to my collection - unless I get carried away at the swap, that is...ReplyDelete
All of Dorie's un-recipes have been a hit for me, as I recall, perhaps because they give lots of leeway for preferences.
It's [un]recipes like this that make me wish I had been able to stick with the group (Dorie's creations are all awesome, but she really shines at the [un]recipe). Strawberries are at their peak here right now - sweet and perfect - I'm all about anything with strawberries!ReplyDelete
espresso balsamic AND pink peppercorns. why, you've made this tartine even more chic than it already is.ReplyDelete
and congrats on the graduation. time flies fast huh?
I'm loving these non-recipes. Such a great idea and so easy that I know I will make it again and again.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 8, 2013 at 9:14 AM
This non-recipe will be making frequent appearances around here, in various forms. In fact, I'm off to the farmer's market this morning to see if I can score some more fresh strawberries.ReplyDelete

expresso balsamic... I have not heard before!ReplyDelete
I'm learning a whole lot of stuff by cooking with FFWD.
I just had a baby and it will be a long while before she grows up into an adult.
Good job on being a wonderful mother to your kids!
Oh yum creamy goat cheese crunchy bread, fresh strawberries covered in an acidic balsamico sauce. Your tartines are very inviting, I love that for breakfast or as a snack Cher. =)ReplyDelete
Cher, beautiful ripe strawberry slices on top of your wonderful tartines - so nice that everyone seemed to have enjoyed this simple recipe so very much!ReplyDelete
We have something similar to the CSA boxes here and it is a wonderful initiative that seem to call for some really inspirational cooking/baking sometimes!
Have a good Sunday with some wonderful "leisure" time and good (cook)books!
God we all loved this. Our tiny local option for the Vermont creamery was way too small and I will be looking for econo sized versions when I next head north :) WOW- Culinary Kid is graduating this year !!! Oh my, how exciting and how "many other emotions" too :) All the best with the adventures this summer ~ReplyDelete

Great photo Cher!ReplyDelete
Culinary Kid is graduating! Congratulations :)
What an exciting (and scary) time! We are a couple of years away from that but I know it will be here before you know it. I've noticed going to uni where you guys live means leaving home? I have a some friends who are from the US and they are surprised here the kids usually live at home while studying at uni. I'm learning there are pros and cons to all situations!
Check again to see if Culinary Kid is graduating. I thought we were just going through the graduation of Child #1 (wasn't that Runner Girl??). Did you know there are pills to stop teen-age girls from growing up too fast??? Seriously, it must be an exciting time at your house and I know you are proud of those two. They seem like lovely young women. Love the multi-grain boule as much as I do the entire tartine. Although I haven't ever participated in a CSA, I did just receive Vegetable Literacy. Wow, is that some book. I am neck-deep into my Master Naturalist program now and my Botany/Wildflower prof is going nuts over that cookbook. We gave it to her for her birthday. Please let me know what you try and I will do the same. I am just starting "And the mountains echoed" and already have a difficult time putting it down. Happy Summer to you and, yes, Mountain Mary is just a fine name. I am so glad to be home in Colorado.ReplyDelete

I cant wait to see what inspiration brings out of those CSA boxes and late night study sessions!ReplyDelete
I love your choice of bread for the tartines too!
I've been loving the non-recipes too. This one will be revisited when the local strawberries are here.ReplyDelete
Our CSA starts this week. Weeks of intensive cooking ahead. Yay! I want to get Vegetable Literacy, and I'll check out Roots for later in the season. For greens, you should look at Martha Rose Shulman's Mediterranean Harvest. Lots of great tarts filled with greens in there.
