Tales From the Redhead. Welcome to my blog. It's nice to have you visit! Santa Cruz, California, October 28th, 2014. Saturday, August 1, 2015. Cecil the Lion, the witch hunt, and the war drones on.

Yes, that the man who shot him was out for a trophy. Buddy, you want a trophy? He shot a LION, not a CHILD! Oh, sorry...

Heather In Progress: Autumn
http://heatherinprogress.blogspot.com/2012/09/autumn.html
Sunday, September 23, 2012. A November sunset (taken somewhere around 2003-05). Autumn on (the college) campus (taken somewhere around 2003-05). I'm looking forward to:. Scarves, hats, armwarmers (all knit by me). Knee socks and tights*. Hot chocolate at any hour of the day or night. The smell of frost in the morning. The general feeling of coziness and wanting to stay indoors. Being toasty warm under lots of layers with just my face cold in the air. Blankets- more on the bed and snuggled up on the couch.

Heather In Progress: Two Letters
http://heatherinprogress.blogspot.com/2012/11/two-letters.html
Monday, November 05, 2012. I was home all day yesterday doing nothing. I watched movies, read a book, drank hot tea, wrote a bit on my NaNoWriMo story, and napped. You couldn't have done this yesterday? Now I have to go to work and teach all day with you all cramped up and trying to kill me from the inside. I get to be cheerful and energetic and stand and walk a lot amongst a lot of 8th graders and around co-workers while my guts are trying to twist themselves into Celtic knots! Please start working soon.

Heather In Progress: July 2012
http://heatherinprogress.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 20, 2012. I made up a dessert the other day. I decided to call it Faux Mousse because it's not made like actual mousse, but does contain cream. If you have a better idea for a name, please leave it in the comments! What follows is sort of a recipe. I didn't measure or write anything down, so these are my best guesses. Don't do that. I added a little more cream, though, and that softened it back up.). I took about eight or ten whole frozen strawberries, thawed (in the microwave- I didn't plan...
