Magic Windows #9
by angeliska on January 26, 2010

Stargazer Honey
by angeliska on January 3, 2010
Our New Year’s Eve was truly magical. Despite a rocky start fraught with Mercury’s meddlings, we managed to create a really solid camp and the coziest tipi yet! In a pinch, duct tape, scavenged rope and a random dental tool (…)
Magic Windows #4
by angeliska on October 9, 2009
Summer’s dwindling has brought the storms: this one was coming for me before I began my journey. I outran it in high-heeled boots, the wind lashing at my leftover locks, head newly half-shorn, walking through the drive-through at the bank. (…)

by angeliska on July 24, 2009
I really only have a teensy snoppet of time just now- but as it happens to be Thursday, (well it was when I started writing this, anyway!) I feel moved to thank my lucky stars for some bits of assorted (…)
Krewe of Eris – The Feast of the Appetites!
by angeliska on May 4, 2009
I look forward to the Krewe of Eris parade every year- it usually happens on the weekend before Mardi Gras, and this year (it occurred back in February, mind) it was quite chilly indeed. Luckily we were all able to (…)

Ahem! I will now turn back the calendar pages to February and continue revisiting my marvelous Mardi Gras visit.. Bear with me, faithful readers- it make take several installments, but I promise it will be worth the wait in juiciness (…)
