Japan's Martha Stewart

I soooooo Love different cultures....My friends will tell you...."yeah...that girl (meaning me) is a Gypsy!" Ive been fortunate to have traveled the globe and there is nothing better (for me that is ) to understand a culture.It is a beautiful thing when you come into a country knowing a little...people are so happy when we take the time to learn their ways......I vowed many moons ago to NEVER be that DUMB American. I could never understand that when people come to this country we expect them to know how WE operate and don't expect them to try and CHANGE what we have going here.....So why do feeble minds want to go somewhere else and demand special treatment because they are American?!?! I'm a proud American....Love this place....but don't always like the way people act abroad....One day I will expand on this.....CUZ MAN.....I HAVE SEEN A LOT!!!!!!!

Anyway....I'm a person that when I LOVE something I TOTALLY IMMERSE myself....Call me an extremist.....and I will say......"Yeah...you got me there...."

Coming upon week #2 of the Japan crisis...I want to share my love for this little Sensi ....and my guess I a lot of you that you don't know her (sweet lady).....Meet Japan's Martha Stewart.... Kurihana San.....(Harumi Kurihana) although I'm certain she's NEVER served a prison term....she is DEF.....PROPER♥ ==------- My food video I had here got deleted?!??!?! -----LOOK HER UP!!

Tread Lightly

Do you ever feel like you're in some unknown realm of things/thoughts that you really don't care about but you participate anyway............. Welcome to my world........

Hello you....It's Me......and this blog makes 3!"

My lovely friends (you know who you are) totally believes in blogging...... it's the wave of the future.....wave of the future......wave of the future....(I hope someone gets that). Sigh..............

Well.......I beg to differ... and I don't mean that in a condescending way...

I'm a very uplifting person......but just like anyone else I have my days.... days that I can not take BULL.........from any angle.....well....I've had some recent angles.........I'm so tired of it......although (again) it's the wave of the future............(sigh.....)

Does anyone else sense a false blog world!?!?!

GOSH.....anyway.......I was chatting with a friend the other day...while catching up with long lost happenings....she begins to tell me that her blog was sub-par.....In the Blog World?!?!?!? Since when did the world get a B.S. committee.... referring to Blogger Standard Committee..... Although...I think that the other would suit nicely...........really!?!?! is there someone out there in the web world giving blogger 10's... a fake world of popularity? Wow.......hum...........with so many other things that matter.....Human Life.... world crisis.......... We ALL HAVE TO HOPE to fit in on blog web standards........

Cuz....I don't know about you...BUT THAT'S WHERE I MUST BE.............Whatever!!!

We live in a real world.....with real things....called LIFE...... you will not catch me trying to hide behind a facade...........I have started this blog because my long time friends.....(love you guys) have said people need to see the inner you.......OH....How I DO NOT LIKE THAT.....but immense the Internet-net B.S. (that one doesn't stand for blogger standard)...I will let it flow...........

I hope I will inspire people with the SAME creative standard of being YOU......... To share their insights............I'm tired of looking at people abiding by some boring creative rule book that says....."you must write your blog this way.....you must take your pictures that way....you must have this circle of friends....... you can only post comments here.....AND IF......ONLY IF you follow this you will end up a success...







If you have a talent be true to self...do NOT be contain



Peace, and Love and true to self.......
Tread lightly♥

The Important Things

On Thursday I kept Cheeky Monkey 1 and 2 home from school....My heart was heavy with sadness from the passing of two people on each side of our family. Head of house said "...just keep them home today." So I did. We did a bit of home schooling instead....We went to see real dinosaur tracks and had dinner at a small local restaurant who happened to have a Mom & Pop jazz duo for our entertainment....Super cute...they were.....Mom had a sultry voice and Pop played a mean bass need less to say....we had a GREAT DAY!

On Friday the world received the news about Japan....The kiddos came home from school asking lots of questions. "Did A LOT of people die?" was one of the heaviest questions. We did A LOT of praying . We prayed for the kids that were at school that now do not have parents, for the parents that do not have children, the people who now are dealing with a potential nuclear meltdown....and so on...... Through all of this we're trying to find things to not weight our hearts. It was hard. We talked about being thankful for family togetherness and it seemed to put smiles on every ones face.

We attempted to put Jordan on a plane Saturday heading to Cali for spring break...flights were oversold so he was a "no-go". Yaz and I went to wholefoods while the boys were at the airport. On our food adventure we found super cute formaldehyde-free nail polish (it's funny what things can bring simple joy to ones heart) hers was pink and mine...."Tangy" the most beautiful green I've ever seen!!! With bags of goodness and nail polish in hand.... back to the airport to pick up the boys...... Jordan was super bummed.... He was really looking forward to spring-break in Cali and now he was going to have to spend his first vacation since moving to Texas here. Head of house tried to cheer him up with thoughts of a yummy family dinner. You can always cheer up a 16 year-old boy with food...we ate dinner, talked about Japan, and prayed. Later that night....Head of house and I were watching a movie. I turned to him----"Do you smell nail polish?!??!?!" I run into Yaz's room looking for the sure mess...I begin drilling the 6 year-old as to what she painted (nothing on her nails!??!?!)...... She would NOT BUDGE!!!! I took away the polish and figured I would find out soon enough what got painted.

I found Mr-Rex this morning sporting his pink manicured claws♥ Happy Sunday everyone...from my family to yours!
