If you were a color, what would you be?

Well, today I'm wearing black, but I feel rather the opposite. I think if I were a color today I'd be opal or moonstone. I'm not sure these qualitfy quite as colors, but they're what I feel—lit from within.

I feel luminous, I think. What color is that?

friday five of childhood.

Posted on Mar 6th, 2009 by Siona : Synchronicity Coordinator Siona

I posted my responses in the Team blog as well, but Jessica asked us to use our blogs, too, so:

1. What was the name of your childhood pet?
My first cat was named Little-papa-wild-one, though I said it all as one word (Lilpapawhylone). Also, she was female. I have no idea where I came up with that name.

2. What was your favorite toy(s) during childhood?
My imagination! And sticks and stone and rocks and moss and trees and dirt and grass and mud. I lived in the woods and my sister and I created whole castles and kingdoms from our minds.

3. Did you grow up with brothers and sisters?
Yes.

4. What game(s) did you like to play?
Again, made up imaginary wonderments where my sister and brother and I were wild settlers on the prairies or monstrous Norse gods and goddesses or outlaws on the run or a pack of wolves tending to our pups or or or…

5. Did you have an imaginary friend?
An imaginary friend? I had hordes of them, I think, as they were called for, but not one consistent companion.

Done! You're it. :)

blessed unrest

If you have a minute, please, please watch this. It gives me shivers. Isn't this what we're all of us here a part of? Isn't this Gaia?

Paul Hawken, Blessed Unrest


Amazing, isn't it? I want to put this on our home page...

what would you put in your own personal time capsule?

I'd be so, so tempted just to place a mirror inside.

"If we discovered that we had only 5 minutes left to say what we wanted to say, every telephone booth in the world would be occupied by people calling other people to stammer that they loved them."

friday five of food.

Posted on Mar 20th, 2009 by Siona : Synchronicity Coordinator Siona

Ooh. One of my favorite topics. Yum.

1) What did you have for breakfast?
A container of whole Greek yogurt; a grapefruit; two slices of brie; coffee.

2) Have you grown your own food?
Yes, although not recently. The last two things I "grew" were kombucha and kefir, and that was two summers ago. I need to get some more kombucha mother.

3) What is your favorite beverage?
Water. My beverage consumption is pretty much water, coffee, tea, and a wide, wide arrangement of wine. It's charmingly medieval, in some ways. ;)

4) Do you like to cook?
Yes, but I like eating more.

5) What is your favorite vegetable(s)?
Beets. Parsnips. Edamame. Butternut squash. Peppers. Daikon. Snap peas. Roasted brussels sprouts. Carrots. Yams. Kale. I actually can't think of any vegetables I don't like.

Your turn!
