Oscars

I was thoroughly unimpressed with Oscar style this year. Boooooring! Except Hale Barry...Remember when stuff like this used to happen?

Love big people...

Life is too short!! That is all...

Right and wrong.

It is much easier to concentrate on what is wrong then what is right.
It's too early to wake up, I don't want that for breakfast, I can't find anything to wear, that person is driving like a maniac, school sucks, bank account overdrawn, wifi on the fritz, soooo tired.

Meanwhile in the little village of Timbuktu, in Mali Africa that my family and I would drive to on vacation as a kid, the Taliban have taken over. Those amazing fun loving people that would invite us into their homes, show us their crafts with pride, let us play with their children and animals are now ruled by terror. Literally. Safety is a luxury there. Condemned to death or public beating for love is routine. Of course this is only one example of some of the real wrongs in the world today. There are just as pressing problems close to home. This one just struck my childhood memory chord.

Globally I feel pretty helpless. I can not banish the Taliban from the world. Or end world hunger. Stop war. End domestic and child abuse. Not even sure how to end this post cause everything I could say ie: take the negative out, concentrate on the right, inspire others...just seems horribly cliche. But this reminder does make it easier to notice how much is right with us. Live thru example, be aware of what is right in your life and talk about THAT. Others will follow suit...

Luce Goods

I don't like to pat myself on the back....much, but picking my company name and using goods instead of something more specific was really a stroke genius. Ahem...this provides me with license to pick any "goods" I choose. Be it cycling caps, musette bags, embroidery or baked goods. It all works. I'm back on my sourdough kick and this is by far one of my favorite goods cause it makes the house smell soooooo good..
