Argh! You’re asking me to choose between the red hobgoblin (hashtag spooky season) and the one named after the land of (one of) my people?? Going with #Erythrite because at my age, I appreciate the end product of being weathered by oxygen exposure. #MinCup26
#MinCup26 Round 1 Match 2:
Flowery pink #Erythrite is against shiny silver #Skutterudite in this match of cobalt minerals. Will you pick the weathering product or the mineral it comes from?

From most people, that kind of indefatigable positivity makes me grumpy, but Dolly was a pure light that shone even on my curmudgeonly soul.

Things I’d forgotten about Wisconsin in the years I lived away (a sporadic series probably so Episode 1 I guess):
