Coffee Art

Making Latte Art
Gary BoydDecember 16, 2012June 4, 20152
Reading my email today, I received a notice from YouTube about this video posted by UNC-TV. Since it covers two of my passions, North Carolina and coffee, I thought I would post it here. I know from past videos that this kind of "barista art"is becoming quite common. But, as I don't frequent…

I was reading through my emails and Google Reader feeds today when I came across Jim Casada's December Newsletter. As I was reading his list of childhood Christmas Memories I found myself nodding on more than one occasion as my own memories mached up with Jim's. Here are a few…

Morning Muse

Gary BoydAugust 18, 2011May 29, 20172
Here lately I've been taking my morning coffee out to the back porch of the new house most mornings. I noticed something this morning that had been kind of bothering me even as it hadn't processed yet...The birds are not singing the sun up these days. Don't get me wrong,…

An End Of The Week Muse

Gary BoydMay 20, 2011January 3, 20173
I have fallen into the habit of grabbing my morning coffee and heading outside to sit and enjoy the mornings. It's a big difference from the way I used to start my mornings...Online and checking in on my virtual world. Sitting out has made me more contemplative, I almost said meditative…

  • “You are the storyteller of your own life, and you can create your own legend or not.” — Isabel Allende.
  • “My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just to enjoy your ice-cream while it’s on your plate.” — Thornton Wilder
  • “Sing in me, Muse, and through me tell the story of that man skilled in all ways of contending, the wanderer, harried for years on end.” — Homer, The Odyssey
  • “The rule of law, civil liberties and civil rights—these are not our burdens. They are what makes all of us safer and stronger.” — Bob Mueller, Former Director of the FBI
  • “The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson
  • “Find meaning. Distinguish melancholy from sadness. Go out for a walk. It doesn’t have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn’t have to be a walk during which you’ll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter. Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don’t find meaning but ‘steal’ some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn’t make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.”

    ― Albert Camus, Notebooks 1951-1959
