Life Lived Well: August 2011
http://kristalcloer.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
My Favorite People and Places. Saturday, August 27, 2011. I love my garden, small as it may be. There is nothing like being a busy mom who at 5:00 realizes she has absolutely no idea what her family will eat for supper (know anyone like that? To which he quickly replied, with tomato juice dripping down his chin, "You must not have had the kind of candy I have had.". I call it "Shelly's Salsa.". 1 can whole peeled tomatos (or fresh ones from next year's garden). 3/4 of a medium size onion, chopped. Warnin...

Life Lived Well: Shuckin' Corn
http://kristalcloer.blogspot.com/2011/08/shuckin-corn.html
My Favorite People and Places. Thursday, August 11, 2011. Something I haven't yet learned is exactly what makes "sweet corn" sweet. Sweet as opposed to what.sour? Within minutes, my four- year- old son Coleman came running down our rock drive with his dad following close behind. They had been cutting down a dead tree, and he had seen Mr. Latta leaving in his truck. "What's in the bag? Try it for yourself the next time you want your sweet corn to taste even sweeter! As for me, I'll still be reaching for t...

My Favorite People and Places. Saturday, August 6, 2011. Barefoot but NOT Pregnant. Our 25th highschool class reunion is tonight.atleast the invitation said 25th.maybe it was a typo, because I know I haven't been out of highschool that long. I remember my own parents' 25th class reunion, and they were ancient at the time. Scott, my husband, said, "No, not a dog." My then 12-year old daughter said, "I know.you're going to have a baby! I can't imagine why no one's volunteering. 1- Let Coleman wear what he ...

Life Lived Well: September 2012
http://kristalcloer.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
My Favorite People and Places. Monday, September 10, 2012. I asked. "How to blow the big bubbles," he replied. "You just have to go really slow when you puff your air out." I told him he had five more minutes to make his bubble discoveries and then he had to come inside and go to bed. Since we can't control the sorrows we face in our own personal lives, most of us prefer not to add to that pile by ignoring the sorrows we can halfway around the world, since they aren't right under our noses where we can s...

http://kristalcloer.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
My Favorite People and Places. Sunday, July 31, 2011. As a young child, I can remember pleading with my mother to allow my brother and me to go barefooted on the first day we deemed warm enough in the spring. Although she wasn't a woman of many rules, she always demanded that we not go without shoes until the first day of May. "If it's 85 degrees today", I would ask, "what is so magical about the first day of May? Blog) may contain frozen vs. fresh berries.when I tell her about the snake, though,...You s...

Life Lived Well: December 2011
http://kristalcloer.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
My Favorite People and Places. Monday, December 19, 2011. What's a Tobacco Basket, anyway? The memories and the traditions that serve to make Christmas so special , though, are also what make it so hard. By definition, traditions remain the same, and yet life forces change. Neighbors move away, kids grow up, and loved ones die. Unlike the changes of nature's seasons, these are not changes that I savor. Merry, merry Christmas! Links to this post.
