I don’t like it when people complain about how busy they are; perhaps because it is often accompanied by a degree of smugness. Therefore I cannot really use that excuse as to why I don’t have a post this week. Truly though and written without smugness; in between clients, the magazine, other businesses and life in general I have been really busy.

Perhaps I will go with ‘Due to circumstance beyond my control’ but that doesn’t work either because as a coach I work with people to gain control over their lives. Which means writing that will tempt me to follow with the insipid ‘physician heal thyself’ quote.

I have therefore decided to provide you with the thesaurus page for the word busy and you can fill in the one that you like best.

As I have been really ……………… I am just going to post some interesting bits and pieces that I have come across

1) Where is the Easter Bunny?

Easter is coming up and like so many special occasions I have been noticing how far from its roots it is getting. Take for instance this sign in my grocery store “Traditional Hot Cross Buns with chocolate chips” . Apparently I am not the only one who feels this way, from the National Post read Kim Bosch’s The Year the Bunnies Went Extinct.

2) Saffron

For all you foodies and aren’t we all.  Shortage spurs sordid saffron smuggling from the Daily Telegraph.

3) The power of mom bloggers
