Another Snippet.
I’m really living up to the namesake, yo. Mama’s too tired for anything more. . . . I took another bath tonight—a rather pedestrian affair—and decided to add a few pumps of lavender bubbly from a forgotten bottle in the corner. The magical, silky suds it created were as close to the word ethereal as…

The Itch.
One day soonish. . . . . . We love to travel. We love the open road; the stops at Dunkin’; the lengthy conversations; the little shoppes along the way that somehow make us feel more alive. When all of this horror is safely in the rear view mirror, we’ll be heading out, yo. New…

Express Cook.
What day is it? Who am I? And where are we going? . . . Oh, Dear Reader. Here we are again. It’s the cusp of 10 PM, and I’m microwaving a small, dinnerish snack. And I want to read or watch a movie or perhaps pamper myself with a face-mask or deluxe hand cream.…

The Daily Treat.
Each day, yo. . . . I’ve never had an advent calendar. But I very much like the idea of making my own, even if it’s in my head. The 30 or 31 days before me would be neatly arranged in a grid. Or perhaps it’d be a ceramic shelf of sorts, with little glazey…

Fresh Notepad.
Tag; you’re it. . . . Think of this as a yearbook page, yo. An inspirational brainstorming session. An expression tablet. I want you to leave me a note! (Like, for real.) Let me know what you’re reading, watching, and listening to! What makes you laugh? What’s your go-to energy boost? What other fun and…

I Like to Play.
There doesn’t always need to be an end. . . . Just play, yo. Sing it. Doodle it. Pluck it. Tinker and tweak. Sketches. Snapshots. Scattered notes and whatnots. Engage with the here and now. Play and play and play. . . . SnapDragon is an educator, artist, and lover of life. Follow Snippets of…

This-Here Body.
We only get one, you know. . . . I’ve mentioned my body from time to time in my writing. It’s part of my life, after all. And as this new, chilled-out year begins, I vow to treat her with the utmost respect. No juicing diets. No bans on carbs or candy. Just. . .…

Chill.
This is The Year of The Chill, yo. . . . I’ve been working on chilling out for about 20 years or so. It doesn’t come easy. But I aim to try. Here goes. . . . SnapDragon is too tired to think of anything clever tonight. Snippets of SnapDragon

A SnapDragon Blessing.
‘Cuz 2021’s gotta be good, yo. . . . May you greet each day with a fresh, untroubled mind. May you have all of the freshly-brewed coffee your little heart can handle. May you have warm hands and feet, Netflix marathons, and a sizable stack of unread books before you. May you laugh with your…
