Interbeing of Cranberry Apple Pie
Sit a spell. Savor pie. Enjoy the moment. Breathe. You are enough. Enjoy this moment. It won’t come again. I have a recipe for your next cold spell. You can thank me later. Love, Cornelia

Rabbit! Rabbit! Welcome to November
My parents would often say, “Time flies when you’re having fun.” If this is so, I’ve had a one whale of a time in 2023. I don’t know where the time has gone, for I’d swear I just woke up in the bright new year of 2023, and now this year has grown a beard…

Rabbit! Rabbit!
Welcome to June 2023 Since we’re now past Memorial Day, the unofficial beginning of summer has arrived. Yet the summer solstice, which is astronomical summer won’t be here until Wednesday, June 21, 2023 at 9:57 AM CDT. Weathercasters use this alternative meteorological definition: “seasons begin on the first day of the months that include the equinoxes…

Rabbit! Rabbit!
In my family of origin, all feasts center around the food and the fellowship shared by the generations—we remember the ones who came before and anticipate the ones to come. We pass traditions down like treasures others discard on trash heaps, even as we invent some new ones to add to the collection.

From the Shadows to the Light
Rabbit! Rabbit! Welcome to 2023! This old bunny may not see the clock strike midnight, but I’m recovering from a bad cold. Rest is more important than ringing in the New Year. Every year has its own character. Zeitgeist is a word that comes straight from German — zeit means “time” and geist means spirit,…

Rabbit! Rabbit! Welcome to May!
We’ve made it to May, the official door to summer, picnics, swimming pools, backyard cookouts, and slower paced lives. Or so we hope, as the temperatures warm and the pandemic wanes. Of course, this last is dependent not just on our individual responses, or even on our citizens’ cooperative actions, but it also depends on…

Point of View
It’s a matter of perspective. The point of view determines the perspective of a work of art. One’s point of view, or preconceived bias, can determine how one sees the world and the decisions they make about the information that comes to them. If we think the world is a scary place, resources are few…

Rabbit! Rabbit!
Welcome to a Pandemic February— “Heraclitus, I believe, says that all things pass and nothing stays, and comparing existing things to the flow of a river, he says you could not step twice into the same river.” Plato quoted an older Greek thinker about life’s being constantly in a state of flux or change. We…

Rabbit! Rabbit!
Welcome to February! “The most serious charge, which can be brought against New England, is not Puritanism, but February,” said Joseph Wood Krutch, a 20th century American critic and naturalist. If he were alive today, he’d charge this February with felonies! Winter has come with an exceptional vengeance in some parts of the country, causing…

QUINOA BEEF & ASPARAGUS CHEESE BAKE
“And are we yet alive and see each other’s face?” Illness robs us of our tastebuds as well as our sense of smell. Sickness often robs a person of their appetite, but I’ve never had that problem. Somehow I’ve managed to eat my way through the mumps, measles, chicken pox, mononucleosis, and morning sickness. Yep,…
