Here you will find random musings about anything under the sun, but mostly related to: Travel, Traditional Hand-crafts (knitting, spinning, weaving, sewing, dyeing) and links to my favorites, Almost anything Japanese (sushi, kimono, kurei katsu, Heianbo Ryokan, Ishiyaki Issian), Organic Food/Goods, Sustainability and the Carbon Footprint, Gardening, Books (including those written by Li-Young Lee, Tony Bourdain, and others) And, most importantly: Yarn, Food, Coffee, and their related topics.
