  4. I’d never heard the words “kheer aur shakkar,” which means I didn’t know where “seersucker” had come from. What’s so funny is that my favorite dishcloths are the ones my mother loved to make from sugar and cream cotton yarn.

    And I haven’t found good seersucker for years. I love it!

    2. My Mom still makes those! They are the best. And I couldn’t agree more – where has all the good seersucker gone?!

  15. Very nice picture! I like your blog, poetry makes you stop at each picture and makes you think, gives them so much more meaning than just scrolling and browsing…

    And thank you for visiting my blog. 🙂

  18. simon7banks – Harwich, UK – I write poems and stories, often mystical or fantastical. I believe very strongly that poetry is an art of the spoken word, so the sound of the words is important: so please say my poems aloud, if only in your head. I live in the U.K., in Harwich, Essex, but have worked in Kenya and Finland, and travelled to many other places. This is my literary blog. I'm also a Liberal Democrat political activist, birder, long-distance trail walker, real ale drinker and Quaker.

  21. 2ndhalfolife – In the second (or really third?) half of my life now. Moving into the more crone stage: out of my head, into my soul. My magic is returning after many years of having lost it to the streets of life. There have been some very dark times, but these have made my journey rich with the stuff of possibility. Because out of darkness has come the glittering beauty of illumination. It has come with struggle and toil, and not without help--but I am here, and I am mostly in tact, and I'm here to share the rest of this journey with you all if you care to join me.......
