Doing tie dye for Christmas... (at My driveway.)
My friend Karma Rose is an artist and author. She works mainly in ink and wax crayon, and she does some really beautiful work. She made this for me...The Red Centaur! She is so full of awesome!
Shirts and bandanas we tie dyed! (at My living room.)
"Bulletproof" green tea.
1 tsp. matcha green tea powder
8 oz hot water (I use water that's just under boiling.)
2 tbs real butter (I use Kerrygold grass-fed butter.) OR 2 tsp ghee
1.5 tbs MCT oil (Like fractionated coconut oil or palm kernel oil.)
Place all ingredients into a blender (I use a Vitamix, but any blender will do.) Blend until a foam appears at top and all ingredients are smoothly mixed. (Takes about 15 to 20 seconds for me.) Pour into your favorite cup or mug. Enjoy hot! *Note: Add no sweetener or milk; drink it just as it is.
On Sunday I was in our shop at Sherwood Forest Faire, a Renaissance festival near Austin. A family came in with two sons around age 6 or 7. I was wearing my wide brimmed, wool felt Cavalier hat, that's olive green and weathered and dusty. I also had on a thin green wool cloak, wrapped up around my shoulders and pinned in place.
One of the boys says to me, "You look like that guy from Indiana Jones."
I inquired which guy that might be. "Indy's friend. The one who's crazy."
I thought for a moment and realized that he was talking about Harold "Ox" Oxley from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, portrayed by accomplished actor John Hurt.
So, apparently I look like an older, crazy John Hurt.
Yeah, I'll take that.

Ian Anderson is one of my musical heroes, and it's interesting to see a photo of him playing a woodwind other than a flute.

My new X-kilt, rear. This was made for me by a very talented pair of teenage seamstresses, and I was very happy with the results. Sherwood Celtic Festival, 2013.
