By Susan D Ferrell Starting From Scratch Decorating your home can be a confusing and stressful time. There are so many colors, patterns, styles, and accents to choose from; where do you begin?

Kitchen Renovation It's A Numbers Game
By Susan D. Ferrell Third Installment: Time Welcome to the last installment of "Kitchen Renovation It's A Numbers Game." When I decided to add "time" to this series, I didn't realize it would be such a touchy subject. My first idea was to explain standard wait times for cabinets and high-end countertops and what season, I think, is an excellent time to renovate a kitchen. I will still include this in my post, but I have something to add first. It has been several months since

V VII V
By S.D. Ferrell I never learned how to write a Haiku, does that make me less of a poet than you? What’s with the numbers five seven five? I suppose research will explain the reason why. But preciseness would be a constant worry when all I really want to do is pen a half-ass lyrical story. That conveys profound emotions of love gone astray.

Personally, I think it is the most misunderstood and misused phrase known to humans. For example; I often say I am in love with the arts. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to get up-

A French Cuisine Escapade
Excerpt from: A Parable for the Human Mind - Susan's Brain (Second Edition) Once upon a time there was a lizard and a snake. They lived in a desert-like-plain on the outskirts of a peculiar, little town called Desert Inn. The town consisted of a state-of-the-art research laboratory, housing for the scientists and workers, a strip mall, and a nine-hole golf course. The course was called The Greens of Desert Inn. The laboratory was world-renowned for its breakthrough technolog
