Bravo, Harriet Veitch!

Bravo, Harriet Veitch! “[W]hat are you going to do with yourself when you get old and turn into a granny or granddad? You won’t be hip-hopping to your iPod on your motor scooter the way you think; you’ll be crocheting blankets for the grandbabies or carving cots because you can’t afford to buy one at McIkea. Someone will have to teach you these crafts, and it will be people like us, the ones you scorn right now.” Let’s hear it for the knitters, the crafters, the handworkers, and the bakers!

Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
