Here Is An Interesting Contradiction

In the bridge of the theme song it declares, "Mr. Ed will never speak unless he has something to say."

Then in the last verse, it says, "This one will talk to till his voice is hoarse."

So which is it?  Is Mr. Ed a conservative talker who only speaks when he feels he should (he once said he talked to Wilbur because Wilbur was the only person worth talking to) or will he talk until his voice is hoarse?

If you only speak when you have something to say, would you be talking until you were hoarse?

Either Mr. Ed has a lot to say, or he just has weak vocal chords!

    "Shipwrecked & Comatose" has been included in this weeks Sites To See. I hope this helps to attract many new visitors here.

    P.S.: Methinks it is that Mr. Ed has a lot to say. Well, at least that is the way I remember it.

How To Not Curate and Edit Your Wardrobe (and still be happy with it)

Image
Out with the old, in with the new. Wait.  That's not quite right.  Old does not have to go out if it's still useful and still looks good.  New doesn't have to take over the old.  Do I have too much old?  Did I buy too much new? I am following several fashion bloggers who talk about creating a "capsule wardrobe".  This is a wardrobe of fairly timeless pieces that best capture your style. At first I thought these sites were going to help me dress perfectly with every piece mixable and into a signature style that screams "Rachel."  No item would be superfluous and everything would work together harmoniously. I have learned in the past few weeks as I transition my wardrobe from the fall/winter closet to the spring/summer closet that trying to get yourself into this mindset can drive you crazy. It is definitely helpful to evaluate your wardrobe periodically.  Sometimes there is a reason why something has been sitting in the back of the closet unworn

Travels in Fire and Ice - Day 4, Akureyri and Jewels of the North

Image
I woke up this morning to see the ship pull into the Akureyri, (Iceland’s “Northern Capitol”)Fjord. It was a beautiful sight. We had a tour of Iceland’s Jewels of the North. They are some of the country’s northern natural wonders. It was a quick morning.  As soon as I returned from the gym and cleaned up, we had a quick breakfast in the coffee shop and boarded our bus. We began our day at the Godafoss Waterfalls. Legend had is that when Iceland converted to Christianity around the 11th century, there was a chieftain who was a holdout. He finally converted and threw his pagan idols into the falls.  Not sure if the story is true, but the falls are stunning. The river that flows into them is a glacial river. That means it carries the glacial “milk” of minerals and debris. It turns the water a stunning shade of bluish gray. There were pathways all around so we could view the falls from the bottom and from the top. Our next stop was and Lake Myvatn. The lake is a shallow wetlands area, whos

Travels in Fire and Ice - Day 2

Image
I want these posts to be interesting, but so far I have few wonders to report.  I might as well have put these posts on my food blog because at this point it’s all about the food I woke up this morning and saw we were still in Reykjavik.  I went about my usual routine and hit the gym.  It’s adequate but not as nice as the gym on Regent. I am sure my readers needed to know that. Anyway, sometime after my workout the Captain made an announcement about the situation.  It wasn’t the winds alone that prevented sailing.  As we were pulling away from the dock last night, the ship crashed into the dock and the hull was damaged. This morning it needed to be repaired and inspected. We would not be heading to our stop in Patreksfjordor today. Once the ship was cleared to sail, we will head for tomorrow’s port of Siglufjordor.  That’s disappointing as we were going to visit a major puffin colony today. We had breakfast at the ship’s buffet and found it lacking. Besides, parents were not making the
