Six random things about me-
1) I have visited Palenque in Mexico-awesome. Wished I'd had a camera....
2) I was an evil older sister...but I got better!
3) I love Alan Moore...and his work! Can't wait for the next League of Extraordinary Gentlemen to come out (Top Shelf!)
4) I do several kinds of embroidery: Punchneedle, Hardanger, Brazilian, Cross-stitch, Neeelepoint, and the plain old kind...
5) I've never mowed a lawn, and by Goddess I never will!
6) I have the best husband in the world...forever and 2 years at least...
No Tags for anyone, if you feel you'd like to do this, great!

An Epiphany
The first weekend in January is the time when the French eat a special cake called "La Gallette", a pastry-wrapped disc enclosing a delicious almond paste interior...and a little ceramic item called a "feve" (there is no English equivalent). Here is a great authentic recipe, along with picture of the cake with a paper crown. Whomever finds the "feve" in their piece becomes King or Queen for the day.
The picture above is from a book I've read to my daughter's classes for many years...it's basically a Gingerbread man-type story "Run, Run, you can't catch me!" but of course he's caught by the sly fox in the end!
This time of year is also a nice wind down from the hectic holiday season; I had an "Epiphany" of sorts also...I've decided to make some simple daily practices...like a 5-minute morning meditation on the (Majors only) Gaian Tarot Deck I received as a Yule gift. My two other commitments are to redo my resume in order to get a REAL job in the next 3 months, and to either do yoga, or take a walk every single day.
Three things, three Kings - hmmm kind of fits, doesn't it?
Can't wait to work up some inspiring endeavors for Imbolc/St. Brigid's Day!
