The Pancake Chronicles
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."

Happy St Patrick's Day to you too! I have to admit I have NEVER heard "Danny Boy" sung quite like that before! Yikes! Hope your shamrock cookies turned out well...I'm off sweets for Lent but would really love a bite of just one today! All the best!
OH MY GOSH!! I just laughed sooo hard!! My cheeks hurt!!Thank-you for a 1st thing in the morning laugh-fest!! Have a great day, I know I will!

Oh Boy! Love the wind up to the high note. Animals lyrics are usually what I hear when one of my singers forget their lyrics. :::laughing myself silly over here:::
Happy St. Patrick's day to you.
Love you dear friend.
My boys and I enjoyed that very much! We are big muppets fans :)
Hi Sinead! So good to hear your voice on this day in particular. :) I've always loved St. Patrick's Day and I'm not sure why. Maybe because it's almost completely non-commercialised and maybe because I have some Irish blood in my veins and maybe because ... well just lots of maybes. The cookies turned out GREAT but good on ya for giving up sweets! That's something I've done in the past for big stretches of time and found that I liked life better without it. How have you found it to be?
BunsenLang - I'm so glad my Muppet buddies did the trick for ya! I love them so. ♡
Cheryl - I love the part when Beaker gently rests his hand on Animal's cheek as he is too choked up to keep singing. It cracks me up everytime. I love you, too dear Cheryl Bean.
Rachel- Oh! I'm so glad your boys loved it along with you. In a way I feel like I know them from all your warm words about them. :)
That is one of my favourite songs of all time!
Well... Maybe not that one, exactly...
hee hee hee ....
I want to see that the next time the beaker in you comes out. Miss you.
