So, after all these years, I’ve decided to stop posting here all together, and archive the remains. I’m just in today, tidying up and making some changes to sidebar and presentation and links, and then… well, ya’ll can follow the links to your left to continue reading. :)
If I am inspired to post more information on various parts of my life that aren’t… as covered… elsewhere, I’ll post ‘em here.
Hope to see everyone elsewhere!

Rhia approached the principal and a couple of teachers with an idea today, one she’s had ruminating for months. She wants to raise funds to replace the old, wooden (now classed as needing to be removed and replaced) and handicapped inaccessible playground equipment. Miami school has one structure, and a set of swings (woohoo…but with only 150 or so students, it works). Rhia has never been able to play well, if at all, on that structure.
Even at the old school, it was difficult, and she pretty much stuck to the sandbox. I imagine it was the same for another student, older than Rhia and now graduated and in college. In fact, it would have been more difficult, as she was wheelchair-bound for most of the time.
Sometimes, my kid amazes me. She remembers the insanity that was the HAP Fund, and wants to bring it home again. She’s crazy, but she comes by it honestly.
I’ve written up a list of things she can organize for fundraising, and one of those things is a cookbook. I’ll help her compose a letter for the students and parents, probably tonight… but as in all small towns, the selection will be slim and probably rather similar to every other one put out within a 200 mile radius of town.
However… (you know what’s coming, don’t you?)
I was thinking of a “scratch our back, we’ll scratch yours” kinda thing. Any author, editor, reporter, actor, etc. that would like to byline themselves with their favorite recipe, for a good cause, let us know, and we’ll send a form out by email. I’m spam-guarding the email address, but you just have to remove the guard, and add the appropriate bits. recipes jodilee ca
