Come on in. The lovely love has created a wonderful curried shrimp with some rice. Enjoy!
So I came home from work the other day to find the Little Crow reciting a poem to the lovely love and I thought I would immortalize it and share it. It's quite nice.
The eagle cries in the skies
From the lullabies
The eagle lullabies
The lullabies become sighs
While the eagle flies
The eagle lies beneath the cries
The cries lies the puppies
The eagle lies lies
And that's the end of the poem.
(Dictated to the Lovely Love by Little Crow - Age 6)
Now that's some talent!

Good White Folks
Hey, come on in. We've got some home made chicken and curry soup for ya. It's tasty and clears out your head.
So I've been experimenting with something. Y'see I've often heard the phrase, after someone makes what is essentially a racist remark, 'Oh but I don't mean you, you're one of the good Indians.' Or something to that effect. Well. I've decided to start pointing out when you're one of the good White Folks.
What do I mean by a good white folk? Well, if you show an actual understanding of racism in its various forms and understand concepts like white privilege, systemic racism, and cultural bias then you're one of the good white folks. My boss who I teach a class with is in on it too. I refer to her as one of the good white folks. I mean c'mon, she works for an Indian!
I want you to know I find this entire experiment endlessly amusing.
