FLOUR SACKS RECYCLED

It's only an old flour sack dishtowel. No big deal. Embroidered according to a "day of the week" theme, unbleached cotton, hemmed by hand. When? Probably in the mid 1940s, while WWII was still going on, when leather (shoes) and toilet paper were rationed or hard to find. It was Waste-not, Want-not... Sign in to see full entry.

THE BATTLE IN SEATTLE, DECEMBER 1999

Today's violent demonstrations and law enforcement attempts to control the disorder take me back to December of 1999, Seattle. The World Trade Organization attempted to hold an international conference there to set up rules each country would follow in their manufacturing and selling, etc.... Sign in to see full entry.

DAYS OF OUR BACKYARD SQUIRRELS, pt. 5

Itchy and Roscoe went their separate ways as soon as Tom Cat left the scene. They noticed he went to the door of the human's nest and the woman let him inside. Roscoe looked around. It seemed the lady squirrel they'd been hoping to impress had also gone away. He nodded at Itchy and prepared to... Sign in to see full entry.

DAYS OF OUR BACKYARD SQUIRRELS, pt. 4

As Itchy set foot on the grass at the foot of the tree, he looked toward the lovely Juliet, hoping she would meet his glance. To his shock, she was on alert, standing on her tiptoes as Roscoe, Itchy's troopmate, approached her. He carried an acorn in his cheek, and obviously intended to move in on...

DAYS OF OUR BACKYARD SQUIRRELS, pt. 3

When he peeked over the side of his nest he saw it was Shirl, his pesky cousin. He shook his head in disbelief. But Shirl was on a mission. Someone had to educate Itchy. She sat up on her hind legs and began to lecture on the subject of Romance 101. Apparently, she observed, her cousin Itchy had not... Sign in to see full entry.

DAYS OF OUR BACKYARD SQUIRRELS, pt. 2

Itchy had spotted an abandoned nest in the yard just behind the Brick Street Troop's Backyard Habitat. It would be perfect for a honeymoon with the lovely Juliet, if only he could work up the courage to approach her. This impulse was stifled by his mother's disapproval. White Ears thought he just...
