"I don't think it's dying."
An old palm on one of my accounts is dying. When I took the account over last summer, the palm had only three fronds. It doesn't matter if each frond is 10 feet long...there were only three. Last fall, I removed one. … -
Gutterball
I absolutely detest bowling; I'd rather play any other game, even volleyball, rather than step up to the alley. I don't even like thinking about the game. Yet, last night as I was drifting off to sleep, I was comtempla… -
Theology from a Snickers Bar: Reflection on the Individual
Next time you're in the grocery store checkout-lane, take a glance at the packaging on the various candies. Most of the wrappers offer some sort of explanation as to what is contained within, such as: "Crispety, crunche… -

A bloom for a season
My first year as a horticultural technician (a.k.a. "Plant Lady") has permanently killed in me the Christmas thrill of poinsettias. Stupid, ugly plants. I have found nothing in them to admire. They are a "Goldilocks" … -

A long time ago an old woman lived in a house in Detroit. She was scared, so she shut herself up in her home. But the old woman realized that if she could still see out the windows, what she was afraid of could see in.… -
