Whew! I feel like I've left most of y'all in a lurch, and for that, I'm really sorry! This week has been absolutely insane, so I haven't had the chance to do much of... well, anything but those things that were then on my plate. First, I got a new job! My last day at my old firm was Wednesday. It was actually a very lovely day with wrapping up work, having pizza with my coworkers, and … [Read more...]
Hurricane Irene and helping others
27 August 2011 By 3 Comments
This has been a rather insane week as far as the weather is concerned, especially for the Midatlantic region. We experienced an earthquake on Tuesday (my first, Matt's second) that rippled through Virginia and affected North Carolina all the way through New England and even into Canada. Shortly after, preparations were underway in these same areas for a hurricane that still looms on the horizon … [Read more...]
Big Pimpin’: The Perfect Loop
23 August 2011 By 2 Comments
I love getting things in the mail. Good things, of course; bills are another story, but a fact of life. No, what I like to get are the coupons, the free samples, the letters from friends and family. And shinies!! Pretty shinies! Which is why, when an awesomely amazing and talented friend of mine said she was having a sale at her etsy shop, I jumped on it. Jewelry in the mail? Made by a … [Read more...]
Blessed Lughnasadh!
1 August 2011 By 3 Comments
I hope everyone is having or has had a beautiful Lughnasadh! (To those of you in the southern hemisphere, of course, a very blessed Imbolc to you!) I don't have a lot to share today -- things are moving at a very rapid pace and I have much to complete today. However, I do want to leave you with a few links to some great information on Lughnasadh, posted by some great friends of mine here in the … [Read more...]
Lughnasadh is on Monday… and time has run away from me.
27 July 2011 By 6 Comments
Lughnasadh is next Monday, apparently. 1 August, as it is every year. It's not like I don't know this, but for some reason, this turn of the wheel feels as though it sneaked up on me... where did the rest of the time go, where we're suddenly focused on the harvest, the year waning down to Samhain? I wanted to have a full week of posts for Lughnasadh, but, while I'll have quite a few days with … [Read more...]
Pagan Apathy (and what we can do to stop it)
26 July 2011 By 7 Comments
A great friend of mine and awesome Pagan chica, Kallan, recently posted about Pagan apathy. It is a very inspiring, insightful post about the Pagan community and its almost lackadaisical attitude towards very public disdain for that very community. Part of me became a bit angry while reading it. Not at Kallan, of course, but at the idea that Pagans could be apathetic at all. We're a faith that … [Read more...]
What constitutes “faith”?
27 May 2011 By 8 Comments
There's been a lot of hullabaloo recently surrounding a Top Mom Blog of faith contest, wherein a few amazing Pagan/Wiccan bloggin' mamas, namely MrsB's Confessions and Angela @ The Pagan Mom Blog, were personally called out by a Christian blogger. She was originally nominated as a Top Mom blog, resting happily at #2, but fortunately, due to her belief that "[d]ifferent faith is wrong faith", she … [Read more...]
TCC’s Birthday and 200th Post! :)
27 May 2011 By 5 Comments
Two pretty cool milestones have passed in the last couple weeks: First, our one-year blogging anniversary at The Coexist Cafe recently passed on 13 May! You think I'd remember that seeing that it's also Matt's birthday, but of course not -- it completely slipped my mind. TCC's "birthday," not Matt's. Second, this is our 200th post! It might not seem like much, but I'm pretty proud of the … [Read more...]
Intractable Bibliophilia: "Old Books Aren’t Vegan!"
19 May 2011 By Leave a Comment
Dani Alexis of Intractable BibliophiliaSorry for the lack of posts lately. I've been pretty sick, work has been busy, and I'm still studying for my paralegal certification exam, which is next week Monday through Wednesday. Fun times! I have quite a bit of catch-up to do after all this insanity is over, from things that I've found interesting over the past week or so to sharing a few recipes and … [Read more...]
