For two nights in a row, I’ve had a firefly come right up next to me and put on it’s lovely light show, as though it was assigned to me by the Universe. I honestly don’t know how one could have such an encounter and not believe in magic.
Several weeks ago, I was having a conversation and the Pacific Northwest came up. More specifically, the music scene. I argued that between Portland and Seattle, Portland had the better scene even though Seattle got all the attention (and most of the record deals). The thing about Portland music is that there was no such thing as a Portland Sound....
last saturday, i decided to stray from my usual 4-5 laps around the pond in favor of following the other greenway path. even though i don’t go that way as often, i enjoy that part of the greenway because it smells like i’m walking through an old book store. but on this day, as i neared the other end of...
Hello, remember me? The absolute goofball with a shit-ton of notes and ideas in my Notion notebook and index cards that I fully plan to turn into a post either here or there, but due to Many Other Things, I have had neither the time nor the mental energy to write about any of it. Remember her?
Well, I’m back. Feel free to clap or roll your eyes (or both if you’re that coordinated) at this point.
Okay, maybe more than a minute and closer to *checks calendar* a year and a half? Yikes. I guess that’s what happens when you’re trying to keep going during a pandemic. I’ll do a more thorough catch-up post when I can (probably over Thanks-but-no-thanks-giving). The headline now is that I’ve consciously decoupled my Victoria Klum Media site from this one....
We have a chance to change business as usual, to make more conscious choices. Let’s not go back to a broken and deadly paradigm. Let’s move forward toward a society that lifts all of us.
Now that we’ve all been holed up, hunkered down, and banned from going places for over a month, you’re probably tired of looking at the same four walls and are ready for something new to gaze upon. So why not buy a print from my photography site? This photo is one of several currently available at victoriaklum.com. Look for the...
Well hello there! It’s been a minute since I’ve been here. The freelance hustle is non-stop and, well, this became fallow land. Anyway, we’re at the height of hurricane season (not to be confused with Hurricanes Season, which will get underway in a few weeks). In fact, we already had Hurricane Dorian hit North Carolina a week ago. Thankful that...
The azaleas in the WRAL gardens started blooming a few weeks ago, so I took a field trip to have a look. Photos will come later, once I have a chance to finish my editing.
As you’ve seen in my #WhatsForDinner posts, I’ve been sharing many of my recent cooking escapades. While I typically don’t bake a whole lot (other than occasionally tossing in some cornbread muffins), it suddenly became important to me to bake whole wheat bread. I don’t eat a lot of bread, though I do enjoy toast with hummus or avocado. To...
All righty, then. It’s taken me a while to get around to this post. Sometimes other projects and Real Life just demand more attention. (And also I’m finding myself more and more dissatisfied using WordPress as a content system, but that’s for another rant.) I look up at the cork board above my desk and see some of the souvenirs...
