No excuses

Guilty! I am completely guilty of letting this blog go stale. I have been busy, yada, yada, yada… No excuses. For health reasons my diet has changed, which has been challenging. I came so far in my adventures in culinary art and exploration. Now I must learn to cook all over again, with my own health in mind and the satisfaction of my family being the utmost important aspects of making delicious meals. Honestly, if we weren't constantly challenged life would become pretty boring and bland. The event that occurred in my life made me reevaluate how I am spending my life each day. Treasuring even the simplest of obligations like packing my kids lunch for school is a treat that I not dare to miss. Since I have finally arrived at the well known conclusion that “life is too short”, I jumped in without testing the water into my Freelance writing full time, I will never look back. There is wisdom in doing what you love and loving what you do. So today, my dear blog, I will no longer neglect you any longer as I am busy typing away on anther screen, there are no excuses.

Forget Fireworks-The Biggest Volcanoes on Earth!

You’re absolutely right. We should all be very afraid that a large meteorite is headed on a collision course with Earth and will cause catastrophic damage not just to the blue planet, but to the human race as we know it.  Aren’t you glad you pulled all of your money out of the bank back in December 1999? You were one of the lucky few to suffer the inconvenient and non-existent effects of the Y2K crisis ! Photo By C. Heliker (US Geological Survey) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Well, at least you’re paying attention to what’s going on around you.  You probably already know that at any point in time there are around 20 volcanoes erupting at any point in time, including those safely buried at the depths of our oceans shifting the plates of our Earth around.  For eons volcanoes have been a natural source of obsession for us little people around the globe; in spiritual offerings, as a photographers fanatical and fatal subject, for scientists, mount...

Heroes are humans too

Americans love heroism so much if there’s none to be found we will make one up. Not just Hollywood but the national media is churning out everyday heroes every day.  There’s nothing wrong with that, heroes prove fairy tales can be true. A reason for hope perhaps, but we often forget the best fiction is made from non-fiction, even the Little Mermaid or Beauty and the Beast. Mythical creatures are often utilized to separate reality from fantasy and yet these “fantastic” stories are based on humanity’s version of good versus bad. The good guy (like you) will always win.  Image By United States Army [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons. Master Sgt. Juan Negron, listed as an overlooked medal of honor recipient.  Most would define a hero as selfless, courageous and strong (they must survive in order to b...

Clear Ice

It’s Elementary-Right? Making a Perfectly Clear Ice Cube Image by Christian Bickle fingalo via Wikimedia Commons. Making ice is elementary right? The purely magical yet scientifically stable process of changing the state of matter is of course not new but still shape-shiftingly neat and we are still learning the basics, apparently. So how about making a perfectly clear ice cube? It sounds pretty basic, almost like a harmless junior high school science class experiment, right? Yet it's not exactly basic or harmless. In fact if you're thinking that you have certainly been able to make clear ice before now, it was quite likely a complete accident-just like all great scientific discoveries are made! Yet unless you are fully equipped with a lot of patience and endless free time with some assistance of using everyday household equipment -you too can achieve the pursuit of the perfect clear ice cube!
