Sweet Potato Thoughts
As I sit on my brick porch I think fondly back to the time when I was a teenager sitting on my parents brick porch cradling a coffee mug. Well, not much has changed as far as that habit goes. I like my coffee hot and my mornings below fifty. The cold makes me calm.Continue reading “Sweet Potato Thoughts”
Mediocre Moments and PB&J
As I sit and gaze out the window at the brick house across the street I ponder life’s great coffees… oohmpf! I mean moments. I’m thinking about how me, a farmer’s daughter ended up a thousand miles from home living a “city” life.

At a darn psychiatry appointment four hours awayContinue reading “Blase Interview—-and Psychiatry”

The conventionalContinue reading “Omega 3 Peanut Butter and Mixed Oaxaca Coffee”

National Ice cream Day!
Did you know that July 19th is national ice cream day? I actually found that out. Funny enough I had frozen yogurt for lunch today not even thinking about the “holiday” I had missed. Haha, seems like they’ve come up with a holiday for just about everything. That’s actually something that bothers me a bit.Continue reading “National Ice cream Day!”
Fight the New Drug
I recently read an article online that horrified me.As I sat with my fresh brewed Columbian coffee in hand I sat and cried. The article was about Pornhub’s promoting Premium service to users starting in Italy, Spain, France then going to Canada and even the United States. The company commented that during this crisis theContinue reading “Fight the New Drug”
Matthew 9:9-13; Desiring mercy
In today’s Gospel, Matthew 9:9-13, we are at Jesus’s knee eating with tax collectors and sinners. He eats with them and the Pharisees question his apostles, asking why he should eat with sinners. Jesus overhears this and says, Those who are well do not need a physician, but the sick do. Go and learn theContinue reading “Matthew 9:9-13; Desiring mercy”
