A few weeks ago I was forwarded this posting from Craigs' List. I get questions all the time about how to choose a good psychic or metaphysical practicioner, and while the specifics of my answere may vary, this is the core of what I tell people.

"I have been in LA for a few years and have not had much success, so I want to try some alternative methods. One of my friends suggested I try white magic, but I figured I should find an expert or someone who knows what they are doing.

This is not really a recipe.  It's more a description of how I make bread and that varies each and every time.  This is the basic story.

I made bread yesterday.  My bread recipe has been steadily evolving over the last seven years, starting with a rich challa and slowly becoming a hearty wheat.  My problem with most whole wheat breads is they tend to be bitter, heavy or strangely tasteless.  My recipe is slightly finicky, but full of flavor and we are in search of flavor!

This past February and March, I had the pleasure of working as Assistant Director and 2nd Unit Director on the film The Secret Adventures of Mr. Grant for Adams House Productions.

My cousin's grandmother passed away last week. The night before her funeral this poem became lodged in my head.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,

I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am in a thousand winds that blow,

I am the softly falling snow.

I am the gentle showers of rain,

I am the fields of ripening grain.

I am in the morning hush,

I am in the graceful rush

Of beautiful birds in circling flight,

I am the starshine of the night.

I am in the flowers that bloom,

I am in a quiet room.

I am in the birds that sing,

I am in each lovely thing.

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there. I do not die.

Mary Elizabeth Frye (1904-2004)

Paulette Nicole Furrie, 91, was an actress, wife and mother with a wicked sense of humor and a killer French accent. Three days before she passed she asked to be buried all in purple - she was.

This Month we have a fantastic new article from Julie Cancio Harper - Cooking to Ground: Daily Acts as Sacred. John Thornton shares with us the message he shared at the Church of the Living Spirit in Lilydale, NY – His Eye is on the Sparrow and we have new events from the Community Calendar.

Tammie Crosby is taking a well deserved month off from writing about crystals after giving us Twelve Months of Gemstones. If you have any follow up questions or topics you would like to see her cover in the future tell her in the forum. Also, as always, please take a few moments to look at and offer prayers for the new prayer requests.

Our new Forum is starting to heat up with new posts and content, check it out and let us know what's on your mind and in your life.

A forum post reminded me of our Free Tarot Readings. This fun little program lets you get a full featured tarot reading and explanation when ever you need one. You can find the link in the Tools and Toys menu, and if you find any cool toys out there on the interwebs you think we might like, tell us about it in the forums.

On a related note, for all my fellow Buffy Freaks out there, the new Buffy Tarot Deck will be out soon! Comic Book Resources has all the details and it looks really cool. (I have never been a Tarot user, the cards confuse me – it's easier to just ask spirit what I want to know than remember what all the pretty pictures mean, maybe my fourth grade teacher was right, I am lazy) I now know what I want for Christmas. Look at it, it's so SHINY!


Have a blessed, peaceful and productive month.
