A gift I am thankful for

gift nov 7

The Native American Consulting Committee of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) gave me the stole and tie when I left the Presbyterian Mission Agency. Buddy Monahan made the presentation.

A taste or food I am thankful for

Food November 4

This one proved a bit of a challenge. I like to eat. I do it well. Too well, my doctor tells me. I have a definite preference for eating food rather than photographing it. I found this one from a Sunday brunch at Community Food and Juice.

A color I am thankful for

Food

It should come as no surprise that purple is the color. Thanks to the saints of First Presbyterian Church of Whitestone for a purple birthday party.

Laundry night in NYC

Frodo walked into Mordor,
even though one does not simply do that,
to destroy a ring of power.

Dorothy followed the Yellow Brick Road
to find the wizard who could return her to Kansas.

A shepherd, left 99 sheep behind
to search for one that was lost.

With the knights of the table round,
Galahad sought the Holy Grail.

I’m looking for a lost sock.
