I was reading a news story today on the changing home environment in Japan. It struck me as a little sad that, according to the report, some individuals saw these changes as a threat instead of simply an alternative for those who choose to adopt a change in their living quarters. Maybe being from a different culture, and viewing alternatives as positive, makes the thought of having options a necessary part of adjusting to an ever changing world. And maybe those views seperate me from those who view options as threats. But I can’t see a negative side to having options in making a house a home that relects the owner’s personality.

I’m sorry this is little bit late. We had a loss in the immediate family that required my attention most of the day. Anyway, here is the information for 4 p.m.

What do asparagus, eggs, salad, hamburger, strawberries, herbs, raisins, frozen yogurt, chocolate parfaits, raspberry popovers, orange juice, chocolate custard, hoagies, mushrooms, cherry deserts, American beer, and bathroom reading all have in common? Other than if someone ate all those ingredients they would probably have to be doing the reading in the bathroom, these are all objects of celebration in the month of May. The complete listing for the month is somewhat comprehensive and overwhelming. For those who are looking for a reason to celebrate, here are two resources that provide a wide range of information :
