The Old Salt Route connected many European cities through trade for more than a thousand years. Salzburg, Austria still displays so much of the wealth generated by the trade of SALT, not silver or diamonds or gold. Also renowned for Mozart and the setting of "The Sound of Music," I enjoyed wandering around this city… Continue reading The Salt Road
I can now say I have been to Europe! I got my passport stamped for the first time since 2012. Munich, Germany is so many things: torch of Bavarian culture and pride, a green and clean city, the host to many Nazi atrocities, a current international terminal that welcomes tourists generously. Palaces, royalty and fairy… Continue reading München on Something Delicious

I had a difficult and unsettled summer, but suddenly I find myself mellowing as the season changes. My summer Statistics class is over. My 10-day streak of working outside is over. I moved to the beach. I am enjoying this in-between time. I find myself craving the quiet. Happy Virgo season, I want to spend… Continue reading Sandcastles, like summer, cannot stay
I can't tell if this is a common pre-teen phase or a 1999-era phenomenon, but the summer I turned 13 I was obsessed with collecting, and following, Summer To-Do Checklists in teen girl magazines. The month of July has unfolded for me like I am following another checklist. I have experienced: A Scary Movie: The… Continue reading Essential Summer Experiences
Genuinely pleased to announce that even before July Fourth weekend, I have visited State Parks seven different times. Island Beach State Park is my happy place: I have added Allaire State Park into my mix, and it is a special kind of gorgeous.

An oldie but a goodie.
Long hair, thick hair
pheromone trap black hair
a rope to tug pinned up
against a wall. Spillover bedside,
bleach in the summertime, shave
in fall. Smooth at secret crescent
silken comb of broken teeth. Tie
it back, it bursts, hair,
tie it back, it bursts.
Cable-strength noose, barbarian braid
a sword between two bodies reclined
no trust cannot sleep beside
hair, unsung Samson song keep
those fingers to yourself.
Supple never touch hair,
soft but never touched.
