Z Is For… Zoo!

A Catherine Noon

I love going to the zoo. They serve an important function in the conservation of these amazing animals.  Brookfield Zoo here in Chicago is no exception.  Much of their work, besides creating a fun zoo to wander, is in helping … Continue reading →

Z Is For… Zoetropes!

A Catherine Noon

In researching for this post, I wandered through my Family Creative Workshop, which is a 24-volume set of craft books done around the late seventies/early eighties.  I wish there was a website or community who liked these books, because they … Continue reading →

Y Is For… Yarn! or, The Joy of Stash

A Catherine Noon

I know, this is a topic one might think would be more suited to the Knoontime Knitting side of my website.  But yarn is an integral part of me, and I adore it so much, that it spills out into … Continue reading →

A Catherine Noon

W Is For… Writing

A Catherine Noon

  Writing by hand is magical.  There’s something special in it, visceral.  Yes, computers can reproduce calligraphy.  But they cannot create.  They are not people and therefore, they cannot make what we can.  The sad thing about the ease with … Continue reading →

W Is For… Weaving!

A Catherine Noon

Weaving is one of the oldest textile arts in the world. The most complicated looms, like the huge one featured in the movie Wanted, are the same in principle to the simple back looms used in the mountains of Peru … Continue reading →

V Is For… Vanuatu!

A Catherine Noon

Vanuatu.  An archipelago halfway between Hawaii and Australia, it’s been under many outside colonial jurisdictions in its history.  In researching for my post today, I couldn’t think of a “V” to feature so I asked the internet.  It gave me … Continue reading →

V Is For… Vinegar!

A Catherine Noon

I love vinegar. I use it in salad with fruit instead of dressing; I splash it on vegetables when I steam them; and I use it as part of the seasoning when cooking chicken. I particularly like flavored vinegar. Making … Continue reading →
