In my little devotion book about the beach, the author mentioned milquetoast. I hadn’t heard this word in years and for certain didn’t recall seeing it in print, so I was intrigued. Turns out, the word milquetoast was brought into our world through a comic strip by H. T. Webster. In The Timid […]

No Comments »Birds of a Feather on a Wire
October 17th, 2014
dsisler It’s that time of year. Perhaps you’ve noticed it. Birds are flocking together and sitting atop wires along the road. Apparently, this is a phenomenon that occurs in the fall, as the weather begins to cool. I suspect there are other times of the year that it happens, but autumn is when it is […]

October 15th, 2014
dsisler UGH! This is going to be a l-o-o-o-o-n-g day. My body was not ready to get out of bed, but my mind was on the hunt for a fix to the Queen Elsa dress I’m making for my granddaughter. While I believe I’ve come up with a solution, how I wish I could have […]
“We Bow Down” – Monday Musical Musings
October 13th, 2014
dsisler I enjoy listening to older praise music. You might call them the oldies or classics. Today’s melody is one that has stood the test of time and is still as popular as it was when it was written in 1984. Like any other praise and worship song, if we aren’t moved to action […]
