Thursday afternoon
Sep. 15th, 2005 02:56 pmSo today was a day to make chicken soup--not quite fall weather but close. And then I got the chicken out and discovered that it was spoiled. (My rule for chicken should be that, regardless of the sell-by date, I should use or freeze it within 24 hours of purchasing. Chicken is just too prone to spoiling.) So we are having bean-and-sausage soup instead.
I've been working on a prayer to Bragi; this is a personal thing based on the premise that writing prayers for gods is the best way I've found to understand them. It isn't done yet--well, it needs editing. Technically, if I were going in alphabetical order (a good way to ensure that you don't skip over those deities you might not be as comfortable with) I should be starting with Balder, but I need to do more research on him first and think about his place in the pantheon, his purposes. But I'm not going in alphabetical order.
