“Stand here. Watch this,” said Drake to hen. “I’ll quack (taking the initiative), and she will toss us some mixed grains.”
All in A WOMAN'S BRIEFS
#45 A WOMAN'S (+SCOOTER) BRIEFS
SCOOTER! MOVE YOUR FOOT!
#44 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- 2023 THE CHRISTMAS STAR
It’s all good here at the Pine house. Cookies are baked, Christmas tins are arranged by the door, most “must do” stuff is done, and Mannheim Steamroller holiday music accompanies my desk work. THEN . . .
#43 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- HALLOWEEN
If what I read is right, this celebration seems not so suitable for children. Worse for sleep than the candies consumed by modern Trick-Or-Treaters. I mean, think about it.
#42 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS: THIS WEEK!!! PERSEID METEOR SHOWER
We are in the week when Earth blunders its way through a cloud of meteor debris the Comet Swift-Tuttle scatters from its tail during its annual orbit of the sun.
#41 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS: FIRST OCCURRENCES OF THINGS
But that was a long time ago, and no one was taking notes, so who knows who was first to wiggle opposable thumbs.
I’ve been asked how I decide on a blog topic. Sometimes . . .
#39 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- BLOSSOMS OR BATTLE
In the spring of the year, the time when kings go out to battle. . .
#38 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- A CROW CONVERSATION
Like many people, I am a crow fan.
#37 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS: "Everything, Everywhere, All At Once"
I’m not sure how to respond to having just watched the movie “Everything, Everywhere, All At Once.”
#36 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS: "WHAT'S NEXT?"
One second! That’s all it took. POW! One second, plus perhaps a zeptosecond or two . . .
#34 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS: BOONDOGGLE
I thrust my hand out as a warning. Palm forward. I was serious. “I am in a good mood,” I said, “don’t mess me up.”
#33 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS: 2022 CHRISTMAS ~ REPRISE
Here then, my revisionist’s view of Christmas 2022
#32 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- SHEET GLASS
It is so like us, we humans.
When we discover that we can do something, like make atomic bombs, combustible engines, angel-food cake, a ghastly scene, plastic, DDT, great music, or in this case, sheet glass; we are simply apt to do it.
#31 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- TWELVE
Today, early this morning, looking at a setting full moon in a dark sky, curiosity grabbed my attention. “What is it about the number Twelve?”
#30 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- OAT GROATS
Oats – well, who doesn’t know oats?
#28 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- PERSEID METEOR SHOWER, pt.1
Earth is fearless. Every summer she barges into Swift-Tuttle’s elliptical territory where a gang, a shower, of its offspring loiter, kicking stones around the galaxy
#27 A WOMAN’S BRIEFS -- TREES
“You can call it a Tulip tree if you choose to, but that’s no Tulip tree. It’s a Magnolia.” So said the university student with snobby certitude.
We had invited this preppy girl to our home for Sunday dinner (thinking she might be a suitable date for our bachelor son). She stood in our kitchen, looked outside with us through broad windows at our huge Tulip tree standing guard at lawn’s edge, and smartly straighten us out. Our Magnolia, our Dinnerplate Magnolia, was just off to the north, at the edge of our wooden deck.
#26 A WOMAN'S BRIEFS -- TERGIVERSATION
One stinking letter off on the FIFTH try! ONE Stink’n letter. It’s got to be an ‘M’ or a ‘K.’ Which?
#24 A WOMAN’S BRIEF: A KNITTER’S STORY
What could be more straightforward, right?
