What's for dinner?

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 20:06:01 GMT

This is another attempt to keep up with some of the things created at the altar of culinary delights here at the church of the porch. I hope you enjoy it.
You might find out what's for dinner! You might find a recipe or free thought of how it was created, Who knows?
The kitchen is a huge creative outlet for me. Those around me are grateful for it and since we like to eat around here, it works out for all of us.

Spam Rant

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 20:25:27 GMT

Who came up with this word? SPAM? I thought it was spiced ham, Hawaii's state meat...I'm utterly fed up with the amount of Spam I have to wade through. Does anyone with a brain in their head ever order any of the shit that comes to them through spam? Because if you need any sort of pharmaceutical from Canada, From Viagra to herbal enhancer's to make your manhood every woman's desire, I can hook you up! If it is a personal puss you need...have a virgin every night!...if you need diet pills or software, I know, I know, I know, where you can get all that! If it is a MEGADIK you want, I can hook a brother up.

I don't want a single person to tell me how I can buy software to eliminate the spam either. I'm not paying shit so someone else can filter my fucking e mail. There is only one way to stop the insanity. Charge for e mail. I can choose my level. Level one: X numbers of e mail a month, Level 2 XX numbers of e mail a month. Make the mother fuckers pay and they won't be able to send free advertising to me anymore. The number of e mails I send in a month is minimal compared to the bizillion that the megadik, personal puss people send. How the hell did I get on their mailing lists? My "real" e mail address is androgynous and you can't tell if I have a penis or not, I guess they assume that if I don't have one, I have something to do with one somewhere. I guess I should shut up and just delete, delete, delete, 200 times a day or more. You have won the lottery and it has been deposited into an offshore account, just send your every vital bit of info and we will make you rich!

I get so sick of the pass this on to your friends etc bullshit. So and so has Cancer and needs your prayers. It is the cyber chain letter that especially gets my dander up. Send this to 20 people you love....or, want to prevent from having your identity stolen...or Santa Claus won't come, sign this petition for world peace. Kiss my lilly white southern ass. You are creating more spam you idiots when you perpetuate that crap! My e mail address is attached to that and what a juicy thing for a parasitic search team of spammers to find. Leave me off your list assholes!

I feel better now. I might have something to add later, but for now, I've let it go!

I was tagged by Zephyr

THE RULES:
1. Link to the person's blog who tagged you.

3. List seven random and/or weird facts about yourself.

4. Tag seven random [?] people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs.

5. Let each person know that they have been tagged by posting a comment on their blog.

7 weird or random facts about me:

1. I love a lot of people, but really don't like ill behaved children.
2. When I was 10 I shot the head off a snake, put it in the tupperware lettuce crisper in the fridge, told my mom I wanted salad for dinner, scared the shit out of her and blamed it on my brother. I confessed in my 30's to my deed. Both of them forgave me. Sorry Carla and bitey!
3. I love motorcycle cops boots. I was once pulled over by a motorcycle cop for failing to put my up to date sticker on my tag(it was sitting in my console). He asked me did I know why I was pulled over and I told him no I didn't know but that I had been a very bad girl...he laughed and let me go.
4. I was once married (13 years) to a colonel in the army. My ex planned the first mission with the Rangers that started this war after 9/11.
5. I have a potty mouth.
6. I had a near death experience once and took advantage of it by asking lots of questions to the other side while I was there and had lots of revelations about spirituality when I woke up. It changed my life.

The Path and Finding Balance

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Sun, 28 Oct 2007 15:06:32 GMT

Our purpose sometimes get lost in the bustle of life; the things we do and say shape our worlds. We are all connected and should remember how to maintain the balance. Our individual balance contributes to the balance of others. OUR positive influence affects not only our own lives but of those whose lives we are attached to. Gaining inner peace is a reward for loving appropriately. It is a sowing of positive energy and releasing from ourselves the negative energy accumulated from a variety of sources.

To behave in a way that honors is rewarding. All the answers we require are there for the asking.

Two important parts are Love and Forgiveness. Through forgiveness comes acceptance and acceptance is an expression of love. Let your life be your story, we can all influence the outcome.
We are responsible for our actions and should never alter how we do something because of external pressures, rather we should keep a vision and focus of a positive path. The path will reveal itself. It may appear that the path is the wrong path to some but it is merely a turn as the path is always right. You are blessed to be taking the path and should be grateful of the path. There are lessons to be learned and experiences to be gained from the path. We often live oblivious to the path. When you finally "get the point" of the path, then JOY comes to the journey.

When a person reaches a level of understanding it is difficult to watch the others around us who aren't figuring it out. Try to focus a group of thoughts that recognizes that we aren't all on the same spiritual rung of the ladder. There are levels of achievement and in recognizing this one must not judge others. An individual path leads them to where they need to be, it may not be where you think they need to be.

Dreams

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Sat, 27 Oct 2007 14:26:30 GMT

I find it difficult to recall my dreams after a few minutes of awakening. I have such vivid dreams in my sleep. I can tell when I am feeling insecure based on what is happening in my dreams, at least for the two minutes after I wake up. Last night, or rather this morning I had a dream about my beloved Beauregard, my consort. He is now in trouble for his behavior in my dream.

How can I forgive him?

Are We All One?

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 15:56:03 GMT

Are we all one? Is the soul an individual or merely a collection? Are we both a collection and an individual?

I've always thought we are both an individual spirit that is part of the collective. The collective is the fountain of energy where all the spiritual energy that is, has been or ever will be is gathered. With each trip we make to our planet as embodied spirits do we add another layer of dimension? I think perhaps we do. It helps us to explain when we are familiar with things or places or tasks we have not done, seen or felt in this lifetime.

Have you ever visited a place for the first time and known that you have been there before? I had a friend who visited the pyramids for the first time. It was his biggest desire to make it to see them. He had seen them being built in his dreams and felt he had participated in the building in another lifetime. When he got there, he KNEW he had been there before and began to flash back to a time during their construction. It wasn't just familiar. He remembered intimate details about them.

If you believe in reincarnation and I do, then it seems feasible and likely that there is a memory imprint which can be accessed.

Any thoughts anyone?

Professional Bull Riding

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 15:56:17 GMT

The world finals are coming up in a couple of weeks. It will air on Fox network. There isn't much better to me than watching men in chaps! I love the bulls and the cowboys! It is the toughest sport on dirt and I highly recommend watching an event. The PBR was started by 20 cowboys who all ponied up a thousand dollars. Now the sport is huge and those 20 cowboys have made a bunch of money and brought us the wonderful world of bull riding. My personal favorite bull now is "Scene of the Crash". He is partly owned by Ron White the redneck comedian. Check it out ya'll, you might find a new passion in this sport. I'm forever adding to my list of things that intrigue.

Special Sunday Congregation

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 01:22:05 GMT

It was a lovely evening at the Church of the Porch. A rare Sunday High Communion was held. Preston has returned from the "game" and was able to performs his duties for communion. Thanks Preston! I appreciate your helping me realign my spine. Dinner was yummy and I appreciate your help in making it so. The porch is closing early tonight. They are in Talladega if you know what I mean.

Thanks to all who suffered through my story ideas today. I'll sit down and do some rough drafting on the puter this week. Embellishing the truth is harder than the republicans make it look.

Dinner on the Grounds

http://misstressheather.gaia.com — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 16:36:04 GMT

Fellow congregants: In the event that you are merely curious about tonight's feast, here is the beginnings of the menu. I'm making 17-bean soup with some of that sausage I got in Greenville, AL at the smokehouse, fire-roasted organic tomatoes and yummy homemade stock for the cooking liquid. I've got several other things going in the kitchen that should delight and please. I look forward to tonight's worship service. Beauregard is working on another batch of recipe for your liquid refreshments. Preston won't be with us tonight as he decided that the Auburn/Vandy game was a must do...his duties will need to be spread to others. I'm off to the German Bakery, Farmer's market, hardware and liquor stores. See you at sunset!
