read a banned book during banned book week 08 (September 27-October 4)
banned shmanned 3 months ago

So i’ve been gone a while, but i’m going to get back into the swing of things!
As cheesy as it might be, some friends and I have decided to read minimally one banned book during banned books week! The whole idea of banning books is so interesting/scary/absurd. I remember learning that some of the books our teacher had planned for us to read in grade school were on the “banned books” list, so she had to have them approved before our class could read them for certain. Its crazy how some of my very favorite books are on the banned list! I encourage everyone to check it out and read a book or two! If you’ve got children or cousins or friends read one to them! There’s plenty of great ones to choose from!



make eye-contact and smile (read all 2 entries…)
Been doin it! 9 months ago

I met a super interesting fellow on the T the other day. We smiled at each other and struck up a conversation about the Keffiyeh he had around his neck; turns out that he’s part of Boston’s Stop the War coalition, and gave me some great information. By the time the train reached my stop we had a group conversation going! See what a simple smile can do? Keep spreadin’ the smiles! (:



make my own soap
Has anyone done this? 9 months ago

Hints and tips would be helpful –
I’ve been meaning to read up on soap making, as I’ve heard that you have to take precautions when working with lye. I hope to do this when the weather is warmer so I can set up outside.
