Join BikeWalkKC and KC Public Library for our next showing of "The Street Project" on Thursday, July 18 at the Plaza Branch!
The film will be followed by a panel discussion with local leaders. We'll also be deploying our Home Street Home exhibit there this Thursday!
Loading up on cheap roadside fireworks. Disco flashers, 5-min smoke bombs, 200-pk Black Cats, hen laying eggs, parachute troopers, and an assorted snake pack. Pondering a pack of screamers and a thing called "monkey drive car."

Questioning why I bought a new smoke detector for the kitschen when I seem to keep taking on food-related projects that fill the kitchen with smoke. Requiring its removal to the front porch. Fail.
Any day now, scientists estimate, Illinois will be a carpet of buzzing, crawling, red-eyed cicadas. Some residents are queasy, but others are thrilled.
Picked up a few goodies today at the antique fests in White Cloud and Sparks, KS. Big scores of the day were this Griswold cast iron griddle and a Frankoma mini vase.
