Foolish gibberish

  • AboutI am also known as CraftyMoni elsewhere on the web. I am a Children’s Librarian. I am a photographer. I am a knitter. I am a reader. I am a wannabe poet. I blog. Sometimes I complain. I like to swear. I have a really twisted sense of humor. I think I might be a Zen Buddhist (Still trying to decide). Not a fan of organized religion. I am very liberal and can be vocal about it at times. I’m a daydreamer. Sometimes sassy. I try to be compassionate. I think I’m pretty nice most of the time. You can delve into deeper waters by reading these posts. You can see my photography on my Flickr page. If you like any photos you see there or on this site and would like to buy a print let me know. I would be happy to sell one to you! I blather about library stuff on  Twitter. You will also find me on Google+ and Facebook. Enjoy your visit!

    I am testing the new WordPress Editing-on-the-fly feature. Also, I am tired and don’t know what to post. So please enjoy this video of the song that has been running through my head all day: “I called out your name” by The Thermals. (And now you have it stuck in your head. Your welcome.)

  • My favorite author

    February 27, 2012


    Plinky asks a great question! Who are my all-time favorite authors? This is a hard question to answer as a lover of literature. However, when this is asked of me the one author that pops into my head is Edith Wharton. I love her. I love that she is  a subversive Jane Austen. Jane Austen writes about the middle class of England during the Victorian age. She, generally, paints a beautiful picture of it. Edith Wharton writes about the middle class in New York during the 1800s. She paints a pretty picture, too. At first. Then she reveals the dirty underbelly of it all. She appeals to the rebel in me. My favorite Edith Wharton novel is The House of Mirth.

  • Noodle Soup

    Noodle Soup

    February 26, 2012

    I posted a photo on Instagram of a bowl of noodle soup that I made for dinner and was asked for the recipe. So I thought I would post it here. I found the original recipe at the blog, Where There’s a Vegan, There’s a Way and I didn’t really change it up that much so I won’t re-type it up here.  The only thing I do differently is add an inhuman amount of rooster sauce to both the soup and the seitan. It’s really yummy and you can find the ingredients in the health food section of you local grocery store.
