WordPress Daily Prompt — Narcissism
There are some of us who avoid the news, and some who, for many reasons, have restricted access to news. I live in a country where the news is very parochial and sometimes it seems that we are caught up in a kind of collective narcissism. Read more
WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge — Liquid
The theme for the WordPress Weekly Challenge theme is “liquid”. In responding to the Challenge, my main criterion was that the focus of the photo should be on the water/liquid rather than on the other elements within the photo. I have chosen four very different photos taken by various members of my family, that I think meet this criterion. I also wanted to post the photos largely unedited. What do you think is the main focus of each of the photos? Read more
Dear Readers, here is a poem about my dog, Ama. It is written in the style of a bush poem. Read more
The delightful Pauline from Living in Paradise has invited me to take part in a 3-day Quote Challenge. I’ve made it to Day 3. Yay! You can see my Day 1 quote post here and my Day 2 quote post here. Instead of a final quote, I am going to finish off with a proverb. You know what it is already, because I have used it as the title of this post:
This is my response to the 3-Day Quote Challenge (Day 2) and also to the WordPress Daily Prompt — Bubble.
The delightful Pauline from Living in Paradise has invited me to take part in a 3-day Quote Challenge. I am up to Day 2 (phew). You can see my Day 1 quote post here. Once again, thanks to Pauline for including me in this challenge. I’m starting to get the hang of it (ie. having way too much fun). So join me in a gastronomic celebration and share the love around. Without further ado, here is the second quote:
The lovely Pauline from Living in Paradise has invited me to take part in a 3-day Quote Challenge. She has invited me to do this because of my self-confessed untidy mind and interesting viewpoints. I think this is code for being a renegade. As I mentioned to Pauline when she invited me to take part, I can barely remember the days of the week let alone any meaningful quotes. I don’t normally do challenges, but this is only three days, and well, how hard can it be to come up with one quote per day? So, I am going to have fun trying – that is, remembering the days of the weeks, as well coming up with some quotes. Thank you, Pauline, for including me. Read more
Position Doubtful, by Kim Mahood, has been reviewed many times and I’m not sure what more I can say about it that hasn’t been said already by others. It is, in my opinion, a significant book. For this reason, I will provide my own review if only to raise awareness of the book. Read more
WordPress Daily Prompt — Cur
In response to the WordPress Daily Prompt “Cur”, I thought I would share with you a significant moment in Australian political history. It was the day the official representative of the Queen (of England and also of Australia), the Governor-General, Sir John Kerr, fired the duly elected Australian government. Read more
