And now we come to the last post for the year 2012. The past few days I have been playing within a certain theme. The post from Wednsday dealth with reflection, or finding what has brought us to where we are now. On Thursday we cleaned up our anchors, physical and metaphysical, the stuff in…
You may just notice there is a running theme this week. I don’t know about you but I am getting ready for the new year. Yesterday was a look into the past to find what lead to where I am now. Tonight we will spend a time cleaning out some of what might be holding us…
It feels odd to be back at it again so soon after Christmas. The extended weekend was like a mini vacation on my end which is something I rarely ever experience (was a bit odd but a good thing). Granted I will be having another 4 day weekend as we move into New Years as…
Its the end of the world as we know it (again). I feel like we have only just recently experienced the hub bub of the world ending. Here we are again at another predicted moment of the world ending. Dare I say that the feeling for most at this point is, meh… With that being…

It isn’t everyday you can spend a few minutes with a Goddess. Lisa Morrison (aka the Beer Goddess) has been home brewing with her husband since 1991. This in and of itself is pretty amazing but we can’t stop there. Then we throw in a writing pedigree that not only covers magazines like All About…
Recently I was awarded the Sunshine Award from fellow writer and blogger JeriWB. At this time I want to thank her for thinking of me for this award. The Sunshine Award is an award given by bloggers to other bloggers. The recipients of the Sunshine Award are “Bloggers who positively and creatively inspire others in…
When you mention bar food or pizza most people tend to think of mass produced lager. This is more because of this is all we had known for most of our lives, not because it is a perfect choice. On the other hand if I were to begin to talk about a Bavaria and bier…
Every once in a while you get to do something really cool, something completely unexpected. And it is in those times that you are happy you stepped outside the normal day.
