Wednesday’s Tumbleweed – 02/06/13
Last week I started a weekly post that I hope to be able to do most weeks. It’s a link party, really. It’s link to articles, pictures, or videos that have caught my eye during the past week. It’s my way of spreading ideas and beauty that I have found. Some of the things I’ve […]
YBW: Team Writing Recap
Back in October, I had the privilege to be part of the Launch Team for Rachel Held Evan’s latest book, Year of Biblical Womanhood: How a Liberated Woman Found Herself Sitting on Her Roof, Covering Her Head, and Calling Her Husband Master. It was an honor and a lot of fun. I wrote a book review […]

Rosen vs. Romney: It’s not about that; it’s about the gray
So there’s been a lot of buzz on the TV, on the internet, over a mocha lattes regarding Hilary Rosen’s comments on Ann Romney. I have to admit, that before the whole media blitz, I didn’t know who Hilary Rosen was and I had to look up Ann Romney’s first name so I could refer […]
