The no blog blog

I missed blogging here last week.
I spent the day and the two following days with a total of 300 school kids teaching them about cloth manufacture in the colonial period. I actually got to spin about a yard with each group for a total of 21 or so yards in three days. I wouldn’t win a spinning contest either for quantity or quality. I am very much hands on, and I felt bad telling the kids they couldn’t touch the spinning wheel. They did get to touch the cotton and wool roving, the linen and silk cloth, then one boy and one girl from each class got to dress up in colonial clothing and have their photo taken.
I was in the habit of writing every day but since the first of May I have written maybe 500 words of fiction, and one nonfiction piece for a friend’s food blog on my experience of wood fired cooking. I pretty much don’t cook in any style. But there are pictures.
