Well, well. I often tell people that "I don't do food."  I was born with abnormal taste buds.  I don't have a sweet tooth.  I HATED that sugar cube you had to eat in order to get your polio vaccine back in the 60's. And I wouldn't even eat my own birthday cake.  The only thing I can cook expertly is popcorn the way my father did, in a large pan on the stove.
And as a popcorn purist, I don't want anything but popcorn salt on it. No candy gunk, no cheesy stuff, and absolutely no butter, because butter gives me horrible headaches.  Even the smell of butter makes me ill. Which is why I avoid all that microwave stuff. The smell goes all over the place.

But where were we? I get so sidetracked.
Piedmont Craftsmen's How2 Night and Yeast Rolls.  Now the thought of yeast rolls right across the street from me may actually lure me into attending a cooking demonstration.  Will wonders never cease!

Yoga Gallery Lecture

One little word that causes HUGE problems...
"MY"
Lecture by Swami BV Tripurari
Friday, October 19 7:30 - 9:00 p.m.

We love "things". Who doesn't, right? From little doodads...to our cars… our houses… pets... family... friends... country.... world.

But WHY do we love "things"? And why do we love our things and not care for another's, not in the same way?

Swami BV Tripurari explains that matter matters when it is MINE. WE are what gives value, meaning to things, not by some intellectualized ranking system, but by extending OURSELVES into them; because we enter our energy into them, dull matter becomes attractive.  (READ MORE)
