I will start this post with a bit of disclaimer, I am not a lawyer, I don't know all of the specifics, and this is merely speculation. Now that the disclaimer is over, onto the post. So I am looking for alternatives to Youtube (free ones) because of what I think may occur in the … Continue reading COPPA and the possible end of YouTube

Poem: For Flowers, Lace, and Antique Things
For flowers, love, Lace and antique things. The stories they have to tell, Grasp some more than others. Relax and listen to the spin of yarn, By various mouths and voices, Some silent and others interpreting, Tales short and long. Follow their steps through the past. Embrace the memories, emotions, and more, And so keep … Continue reading Poem: For Flowers, Lace, and Antique Things
Poem: Where is a Hero Found
Everybody wants to be a Crusader, To be a fighter, To be a hero. There needs to be a villain for such a task, To provide the action for the reaction. There must be a focus, a conflict. To push against air is easy, To push against the wind, not nearly. A question still remains, … Continue reading Poem: Where is a Hero Found
Ambition and Messes
So sometimes I have ambition to try cooking new foods, as in my attempts at cooking the food are new, not the food itself. This weekend I somehow had more ambition than normal. I decided to try two different recipes that I haven't done before. I decided to make salmon loaf on Saturday with instant … Continue reading Ambition and Messes
Poem: Welcome the Creative Conservator
Welcome the bard, Welcome the troubadour, Welcome the creative conservator. Holding onto nostalgia with a cover band, Painting the moment, preserving the present, Strum the string, play the bow, Capture the feelings, Spread them forth, Connecting together thoughts and friends, Weaving community, art, and more. Keeping time held within, To hold the essence of the … Continue reading Poem: Welcome the Creative Conservator
Poem: The Strongman
The strongman instead of the straw man, Solidity and strength, Immovable yet flexible, adaptable, Pillars in place, yet flows between, Hears the winds, yet heeds the call within, Ready to strike and let go, Follows the path laid before, Ready to lead those behind, Teach and learn forth, reflect aft, Do ye wish to be … Continue reading Poem: The Strongman
Poem: Connecting to a Storm
Thunder pounding, rolling, building, Bursting, feel the striking within, Energy current flowing through Power crackling, from my fingers out, Connecting with the storm outside, Blood drumming in concert rhythm, Eerie sky crackles loudly, Heart expanding to meet the power, Letting loose a howl to match the wind, Rushing strength, flowing freedom, Exhilaration of the world … Continue reading Poem: Connecting to a Storm
Fall Weather Food
While it has been warm for far longer than I had expected, it is finally going to cool down and get into autumn weather. This means I can start cooking food that I wouldn't early just because I don't want to heat up my house in hot weather. I am excited because I want to … Continue reading Fall Weather Food
Revisiting Foods
So I think that everyone has foods that they aren't super fond of or just aren't really sure how to approach. One of those for me is pancakes, which you may have read about already on this blog. I love eating them but really need more experience in cooking them. Another food for me is … Continue reading Revisiting Foods
Poem: The Energy of a Forge
The hammering and the striking, The bellows blow, maintaining a fire, Up down, the air flows, Forming, building, crafting more, Hear the ringing, Life blood pounding, flowing. Shield and shovel born within, Sword and sickle repaired once more, Tools of life or death given form. Within these walls the master works. Both a science and … Continue reading Poem: The Energy of a Forge
