A Chicken in Every Pot Our new additions! 3 Barred Rock, 2 Lavender Orpington First of all, let me say, I am not a fan of birds.

Under the Moon's Spell: The Journey from Eternal Twilight to Starlit Splendor
The twilight draped lazily over Arcadia, its hues soft and comforting. The townsfolk carried out their daily routines, their reverence for Artemis evident as they gathered at the chime of the nightingale's song. Every evening, they congregated in the central square, bowing in reverence to their guardian of the moon. Following their rituals, the women attended to the needs of the children while the men ventured into the lush forest to gather sustenance. As night descended, they gathered outdoors, illuminated by the gentle glow of Selene, indulging in the abundance of their harvest.

My Thoughts on a Warm Wednesday Evening. Top Story - March 2024. Content Warning.
I was hoping today, after a tired day, you would help me prepare for my mother's birthday surprise. A candle would've sufficed. Instead, you watched TV, loudly, looked disinterested and then reprimanded me for sharing my feelings.

Nickelodeon: Learn from the dark, but Remember the light. Content Warning.
I have been the biggest Nickelodeon fan since I was a toddler. Some of my greatest memories as a little boy can be captured in the recollection of all the cartoons, sitcoms and young adult dramas that I binge watched on Nickelodeon in the late 90’s and early 2000’s. Even in my adulthood I’ve always looked at Nickelodeon as part of the penacle of what made life so great during my youth and I still love Nickelodeon culture to this day. Nearly a decade into my adulthood I started learning that there were scandalous secrets from behind the scenes that Nickelodeon was hiding. Over the course of the past couple weeks the details of these secrets have made their way to the public and everyone who loves Nickelodeon has been brought to their knees.

Or re-think social interactions and consider how you acted, say behaved and didn't like who you were then, and question whether you're still that person now? I know us humans are flawed creatures, and sometimes if not more but less than most, we are tainted as well as blessed.

Lie To Me. Issue # 7
I was alone, I had little to no money, a job that I was working 15 hours a day every day…and yet I was happy! I was free. I guess I was radiating something, everyone I met after Posey left told me how happy I seemed. Everything was just better, the sun shined its brightest, my meals were rich and full. For the first time ever in my life I felt like I could do anything and go anywhere. Instead, I took a step back and evaluated where I was and what I was doing in my life.

Amina’s Tears: The Echoes of the Delta.
Amina grew up in a small fishing village nestled in the curves of the Niger Delta. Her father was a fisherman, her mother, a weaver of tales and baskets. The delta was their lifeblood, providing food, stories, and a sense of belonging. Amina’s earliest memories were of her father’s boat gliding through the water, her hands trailing in the cool embrace of the river.
