Obsessed with OUAT

I seem to be obsessed with "Once Upon a Time" and I have no idea why. It's addictive, all it took was watching the shows that I had missed from the beginning during the marathon that was shown. I was hooked. Fairy tales have never been my thing but the fact that these had lost the happy endings was somewhat of a hook for me. I can't explain it but I adore the fact that no one is where they are supposed to be according to the stories that we were read as children.


It is like "happily ever after" met a dose of reality. I still want them to get those endings but I like the fact that there are obstacles in the way. Last Sunday's episode was one I particularly enjoyed.


The fact that the Oscars are on instead of QUAT would be a bit of a sore point right now. I need a fairy tale even if it's just for a moment. I guess I'll dream of them. Maybe.......


Well I want to take a nap, so I'll be going now.

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.

Flash in the Pan Playing Along Still

The pages were bent and ragged from years of use, covers worn out from hands rubbing over them. There were bowls everywhere, the oven was still hot. She tasted it again, something wasn’t right. It was sweet, tangy but not right. What was missing? She scanned the room again to see. Onions maybe? No, but what could it be? She hit her head on the cabinet. A pepper that was it!
