Black dog

 

Hi Natty!  Oh, that's a nice woodland find.  There's a place like that close by over here that's similar, but with many small waterfalls.  Looks nice and clean, but you never know.  Aren't you afraid of mosquitoes or leeches or such?  Please put on a pair of pants, Honey.

Speaking of water, I have just been informed that the most dangerous room in my house is the bathroom.  How about that?  Adolf Kitler had been watching that window a lot recently, but I don't want my kitty to get hurt if something happened, so I barricaded it with mesh wire.  They tried to get me from that direction before many years ago, but I cleared out all the scrub and kept the grass cut.  I guess now I need put a light in that direction.  Sigh.

Mary the woodland elf queen!

Hard copy

 

Oh Natty, that's such a cute photo!  I absolutely had to put it in my slideshow.  Are you having fun, Honey?  I hope you are keeping safe and healthy.  I came across last month's issue of Vogue yesterday, you know the one with Rihanna.  I wanted to see the September Issue movie, but they wouldn't let me have that.  Anyway, I used to read Vogue regularly.  In fact, I used to sell Vogue.  Back when the Internet was just a 386dx and a 14.4k modem.  Magazines ruled then, people would buy them in bulk even if they didn't know how to read.  But Vogue wasn't one of those magazines I would really read, I was interested in the pictures.  Vogue may actually be one of those magazines I look at because of the ads.  It's not the same magazine it was back then.  The ads are fewer and different, more like the ads you would find in Newsweek or something.  It doesn't seem much like a fashion magazine anymore.  Vogue online is a different animal: there is so much more content, and so much more to look at.  Which makes sense, because magazines are losing out to cell phones.  But girls will always want to look pretty, so fashion will never go out of style.  Vogue will have to settle on being an online powerhouse, plus being a reason for people to get together.  A grander view, Anna darling.  However, there is one thing that magazines can do where the Internet can't do: market perfumes.

Besides being a fashion critic, I'm not much involved with the general fashion market.  I'm too lazy to dress up, I don't party, I hardly go out, I don't really give a shit about celebrities, I don't want to travel or attend social events etc.  But wait a minute folks!  MashaAllah, I am a Marketing Bitch!  If you wanted to profit from the presence of the music then I don't go to you, YOU COME TO ME!

I think I'm almost out of designers to review for the Spring 2022 season.  If you didn't see me review your work, then it means I didn't like your work.  Once I milk Spring 2022 dry, I guess I should move on to Fall 2022.  But it's not September yet, so my next season would be Spring Couture 2022.  Here's what I like from the Hope For Flowers SPRING 2022 READY-TO-WEAR collection:

Qur'an 20220512

 In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

85.  They ask you concerning the Spirit.  Say, "The Spirit by command of my Lord, of knowledge it is only a little that is communicated to you."

86.  If it were Our will, We could take away that which We have sent you by inspiration.  Then would you find none to plead your affair in that matter as against Us.

87.  Except for mercy from your Lord, for God's bounty to you is great.

88.  Say, "If the whole of humans and jinns were to gather together to produce the like of this Qur'an, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they backed up each other with help and support."

The Night Journey 17:85-88

Pop culture

 

Hi Natty!  What's going on?  Making the big bucks?  Get it while you can, Honey!  And please marry me, because I love you with all of my heart.  During these busy times, please make sure you get plenty of rest, take care of your health, and eat good foods.  Don't get bloated!

I've been watching a lot of pop culture videos lately, especially since that last horoscope video.  The Internet sure has spawned many ridiculous selfie videos, and billions of cell phone junkies to consume them!  I'm glad that I'm not involved in such lunacy.  I'm glad I don't have to be there with the "in crowd".  You might enjoy it though Natty, since you're the sociologist.  I do have one question though: is Cardi B and Nicki Minaj the same person?  They look exactly the same to me, and I haven't seen them together.  Is it one of those situations where there are 2 personas acted out by one person, with the magic of makeup?  I'm so confused...

Qur'an 20220511

 In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

80.  Say, "O my Lord!  Let my entry be by the Gate of Truth and Honor, and likewise my exit by the Gate of Truth and Honor, and grant me from Your Presence an authority to aid."

81.  And say, "Truth has arrived and falsehood perished, for falsehood is bound to perish."

82.  We send down in the Qur'an that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe.  To the unjust it causes nothing but loss after loss.

83.  Yet when We bestow Our favors on man, he turns away and becomes remote on his side, and when evil seizes him, he gives himself up to despair!

84.  Say, "Everyone acts according to his own disposition, but your Lord knows best who it is that is best guided on the Way."

The Night Journey  17:80-84

Go with the flow

 

Hi beautiful Natty!  How are you, Honey?  What's the most beautiful girl in the world doing now?  I just got out of the shower after having dinner after cutting the grass.  What's for dinner?  The cooler rules the menu in this house.  So I had omelet burgers with cashew pickle, and ranch instead of mayo.  I pretty much use up all the food I buy, and it waits its turn in the cooler until I can get to it.  I have one slice of bread left.  What can I do with one slice of bread?  There are other factors that determine the menu.  What's growing in the yard, for example.  The basil needs to be harvested or else it would flower, and you can't eat the flowers.  So it looks like I'll be having pasta for dinner tomorrow.  The fasting month is over, so I can buy takeout rice for lunch at the restaurant at the crossroads.  I usually cook up some chicken or roast beef to go with the rice, and whatever veggies are available.  I'll be going to the market tomorrow, so I think I'll get beans sprouts, Chinese cabbage and mushrooms and start making stir fry for my lunches.  That should be quite economical.  Are you hungry?

Mary look sso conservative today!  She looks like everyone's mother:

Ramen

 

Hi Natty!  How's it going today, Honey?  You must be busy, but perhaps it's calmed down enough that maybe you think of me.  Of course I think of you all the time, I love you.  Are you hungry?  I just had dinner, tonight is the night market so I bought my dinner there.  I have a lot of ranch dressing right now, so I bought stuff to dip in ranch, namely fried chicken and seafood kabobs.  I had ramen for lunch!  My ramen is becoming more refined after watching all those ramen videos.  That broth above is beef bones, ginger, garlic, onion, broccoli stems, mustard green stems, seaweed and Vietnamese coriander.  This is the 3rd time I reused the beef bones, and the gristle had turned into gelatin quite nicely.  I used the seasoning packet for MSG.  Then there's the noodle brick sitting on some soy sauce, one egg (you can't see it because it's at the bottom of the bowl being soft boiled), shredded mustard greens, roast beef chunks, tofu and sesame seeds.  Very light and flavorful.  I love ramen!  Want some?

Mary's dress is one of the older mesh objects made for classic avatars.  Which is fine, some of the older mesh can look great.  But the dress has a funny shape to it, like she's wearing pads on her hips.  Otherwise it could be a very pretty dress:
