Very interesting. The first cheerleaders were in New Zealand.

yea you sort of have to be loud to be Maori as they have a lot of chants
Its an oral culture

Other cultures just wave their flags around. Maori put on an entire performance

Sounds like Tennessee is a well managed state. They actually use taxes efficiently. Do you like living in Tennessee?

No....well kinda.
Roads are nice but the drivers here suck. One of the worst for following the rules.
I have a lot of friends here...they make life bearable at times. My starting a coffee shop and bakery is also going to be nice.

I never intended to stay here for this long. I'm wanting out but probably won't get out. I like fishing...picnic in the parks.

The city of Nashville is unique...kinda like a big fat juicy ham and cheese sandwich on great bread but there's tinfoil hidden in that sandwich...you'll know it when you hit it on your fillings.

Got lots of Honey Oatmeal bread and fresh made breakfast sausage for a coffee tasting tomorrow.

Honey butter and cinnamon Honey butter for everyone.

will your coffee shop have that 90s Friends vibe? Ugly Couch, quirky folk singer, and a bunch of regulars who always are on a break there?

With a few other additions....ours will have an ugly old man who is almost like the Soup Nazi except he will be the Bread Nazi...."No Bread For You"

I don't know about the folk singer....but this is Nashville TN....you never know who might show up.
And as far as the regulars? They have a cubby/safe they keep their coffee cup in.

And no couches planned for at the minute. But that could change.

HA! I'll bring my guitar

See how quickly plans change?

Like we got another coffee tasting on Saturday. And it was going to just be the usual with oatmeal honey bread...but now because a fresh batch of yeast arrived its also going to include Brioche. The fresh sausage? Huge huge hit today. Already got a few addicts running around for it.

I make addicting food. Once you get a steady diet of it...there's no going back. And that there creates a problem....because you gotta eat. And there's not a lot of prepared food out there that is available for reasonable prices.

You should give us an address, I'm only 1 1/2 hrs from Twangtown

Don't forget sticking out the tongues to scare tourists! lol

Definitely an interesting history, I enjoyed watching the youtube video about the history of the Maori people.

They have ski resorts there, probably have mountain bike trails there also, would be my guess. I'm guessing you might have some moon shiners over there. lol

Seems like a great state to me. The weather is probably milder, than Florida. Hmmmm. I will keep this in mind.

Anyways, I found out who was playing the loud music. My new next door neighbor has 5 kids, and likes to fight with her husband all the time. They fight in their car, they fight in the back yard, and than he likes to go in the shed and blare his music to ease his mind. Mystery solved.

It must be rough, but they are holding it together. No judgement on my part, but would really appreciate it, if he bought some head phones, or insulate the shed. I figure the other neighbors will get him, before me, since I have special head phones to goto sleep, when neighbors are less than considerate.

Speaking of driving, you need to try living in Florida. Some of the worst driving I have ever seen. Don't live there any more, but it seems everyone is getting in accidents there. I think my last job I worked there, two people got into accidents during training. It's a wild. I have a ton of stories from Florida. lol

It will be on Lebanon rd on the county line next to Mt Juliette.

But not till late fall.

Gas prices in B.C. Canada is $9 a gallon, That's about $7 a gallon in U.S. Currency.

Give it a couple of months...it will get worse.

There's going to be an even larger push to work from home.

That's pretty cool that you are a writer, you don't hear that every day. What steered you into that career path?

Aww, I love that Gif. Definitely looks like me at the desk

Thanks so much! I've always told stories ever since I could talk. I saw them everywhere I went, and when I learned to write, I would try to put it down on paper (erm, well, with some success. Lol.) I didn't take being an author seriously until after I graduated from highschool and my mom and I talked about what I wanted to do with my life. For me, writing is like breathing, and wonderful gift from God that I wanted to use. So, here we are.

By the way, I finally remembered to put my blog link in my profile Ahh, I can be a bit scatter-brained.

It just went up a dollar a gallon in a week. Good thing for me, there is a local trail, where I can ride my bike to. Another trail which is about a ten minute drive.

I think it's very possible that the world is at war and the inflation is just an undercover war ration, but that's just when I wear my conspiracy hat. I will take it off now. lol

I went to yur website and it's a blog, was hoping to read a portion of your book. So sad! lol

We might have similar humor, now I'm worried that I'm a writer now. lol What's funny is that I did try to write a book a couple years back, but it came out like a diary, or something. Oh well, not gonna worry about it.

You writing a new book soon?

I have a coffee tasting tomorrow and am still baking.

And my AC went out while they are roofing my apartment.....


This is ROASTING in here with no reprieve....only getting worse.

The double antenna blocks 5G from causing MK Ultra mind control. If you don't believe me, than you might be a zombie already....If that's the case, you pretty much have to get rid of your cell phone to be free.

True story! lol

Sounds rough. You can always buy a portable unit at Home Depot or something, to get you by. Maybe a large fan?
