What This Blog Is All About
I’m a bug, smashed on the windshield of my own fate. I was trundling along well enough on my tricycle of life when I got Wiley Coyote’d by the second half of 2008.
“It’s not an entirely bad thing that the business crashed and burned,” my husband said comfortingly (he uses optimism like a weapon). “Really?” I said, “I thought it sucked completely.” (I call ‘em like I see ‘em) “There’s an upside,” he continued, “We can start over; we can make new plans, a fresh start.” “I can’t hear you,” I said, “This blows so hard I can’t hear a thing.”
I decided to write about it, but such is the nature of it that most of what I write is largely unprintable. The modern solution to that is a blog. I can share my growing well of fermenting wisdom with truly appropriate potty-mouthed embellishments.
But spectacular economic failure is not my only superpower. I can go on and on about chickens, and I have a small web based business selling things my family thought no one would ever buy. My website is www.TheFeatheredEgg.com.
I’ve written a book about it all, and it's Really Great.
I was a stay-home mom, but now I’m a went-back-to-work mom. The upside is that I’m not responsible if my co-workers try to choke themselves on a toy. The downside is that it’s been four months of the same four outfits in succession and I think I’m getting a rep.
But I'm starting in the middle instead of the beginning.... the posts tell the story.
Every time I come across a fantastic fellow blog that I personally want to stay current with, I put it up on my blogwall above. These are particularly great.. I don't know all of these bloggers, I just love their work.

This blog is as much an experiment as my cooking. Blogger offers a whole palate of gadgets to populate this right margin, and I am testing them all... figuring them out and trying to see where they add content to my blog. Or, where they dont...
I've admired some other blogs, many are featured on my "These other blogs are cool.." gadget above, that are just pure, and simple, and elegant, and jazzy clean.... but that's not what I am doing here! I am making something out of nuttin' and so that's why my gadget wall is graffiti'd with all these things.
So thass Whassup with the gadgets on the right side.
