The idea for these cookies came from a book written by Carol McCloud. The book is about how we can find daily happiness and what kids can do to be happy and help others to be happy to. About not only filling your bucket but helping someone else fill their bucket with happiness. Have you filled someone's bucket today?
BUCKETS OF BLOOD is a german based project which performs an intriguing mixture of music from BOB DYLAN, combined with reading of texts from and about Dylan which show some of the many, often surprising, facets of his personality.

Eine Bob Dylan Konzertlesung
Markus Hepp: Sprecher (Theater Ravensburg)
Michael Moravek: Gesang, Gitarre (Planeausters)
Kerstin Becker: Geige, Gebläseorgel, Stylophone (The Blindboy)
Per Ceurremans: Schlagwerk (Planeausters)
Die promovierten Dylanologen Prof. Moravek und Dr. Dr. Hepp beschäftigen sich mit einer über drei Jahre währenden Schaffensphase ihres Helden. Angefangen mit seinem schauspielerischen und musikalischen Beitrag zu Peckinpah’s „Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid“ über „Blood On The Tracks“ bis zu seinem Album „Desire“, an welches sich die Rolling Thunder Review anschloss. Erfahren Sie in Wort und Musik, welche Umstände und Ereignisse diese Schaffensphase begünstigt und begleitet haben.
Für viele ist Bob Dylan nicht zu fassen: Folkie, Rocker, zeitloser Poet, Prophet seiner Zeit, Legende und Songwriter-Gott. Country-Sänger, großartiger Radiomoderator, Surrealist und Chronist. Elvis-Imitator und elektrifizierter Diagnostiker. Mystiker, Rapper und Mundharmonika-Akrobat, aber auch publikumsferner Stinkstiefel, pünktlicher Konzertauftreter, Weihnachtsmann und Nicht-Sänger.
Wie aber ist er denn nun wirklich?
Moravek und Hepp wagen Unerhörtes: sie erklären Bob Dylan.
„Wenn Hepp in erstaunlichen Details Dylans Zusammenarbeit mit Sam Peckinpah in „Pat Garrett jagt Billy The Kid“ schildert, sie als Zusammenprall zweier Welten, zweier Amerikas bezeichnet, des Machos der alten Western, des Poeten, der über monatelange Malkurse lernt, in sich zu hören wie nie zuvor, Zeit und Dinge anders zu erkennen, und sich dadurch seiner so geliebten Sara entfremdet. Ein sensibler, ein geheimnisvoller, ein wohl auch melancholischer Mensch wurde da in vielen Facetten lebendig.
…Moravek ist ein wundervoll sensibler Interpret…mit der Mundharmonika so leicht wie an der Gitarre, die Poesie der Dylanschen Lyrics verschmilzt er mit den unvergleichlichen Schönheiten seiner Melodien. Und Kerstin Becker ist ihm eine mal markante, mal schmeichelnde Begleiterin mit Violine und verspielten Synthesizer-Linien.“

I was impressed with how many buckets they seemed to have on hand - this seems to be a common occurence!
What is interesting is that HS are currently running an experiment on the roof with various soft roof coverings (i.e. turf or sedum) to find a way of preventing water ingress without installing a more invasive permanent alternative like a slate or flagstone roof. The part of the roof that was leaking heavily was the part remaining uncovered...

Found in Lulworth Cove. I saw this last year when we went to Dorset but could not take it as my battery was flat! This year my camera was charged up. I bet there is a story to this. The tree is in the garden of a house on the way from the car park to the beach. I imagine that these are buckets found on the beach (though it is not a sandy beach), but maybe it is just an artwork!
Antique Chinese Rice Bucket
Traditionally, these Chinese buckets were used to carry rice and other grains from fields. Today, these buckets are treasured for their rustic design, beautiful patina, as a beautiful accessory and their usefulness. They can be used to place magazines, rolled towels, mail and to hide the remote. The bucket's wood joinery is supported and strengthened with metal bracing.

This is a perfect miniature wooden Hingham bucket--wide at the base than at the top. It was made in 1878 by Cotton Hersey of Hingham. Dimensions: 2-3/8 in. high, 2-5/8 in across base, and 2-3 in. across top.
Currently on display in the exhibit "Boxes, Buckets, and Toys: the Craftsmen of Hingham" at the Hingham Heritage Museum.
Lifetime Dream # 82 of my list of 155: I will hike 10 miles in at least 35 different states, countries or territories. I will research the most scenic and popular trails, relying on my love of hiking in the outdoors. For every place I will collect a patch to commemorate the hike.
Hiking has always been a passion of mine since my days in the Boy Scouts of America. I always have had such a desire to travel and see the world as well. What better way to do it than foot and across the outdoors of trees, hills, and mountains?
Many artifacts can be found in the ghost town of Centralia, FL. It is on government land and cannot be removed without a huge fine. Take photographs and leave it there.

To kick the bucket is an English idiom that is defined as "to die" in the Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue (1785).
A common theory is that the idiom comes from a method of execution such as hanging, or perhaps suicide, in the Middle Ages. A noose is tied around the neck while standing on an overturned bucket. When the bucket is kicked away, the victim is hanged.
Another theory relates to the alternate definition of a bucket as a beam or yoke that can be used to hang or carry things on. The "bucket" may refer to the beam on which slaughtered pigs are suspended. The animals may struggle on the bucket, hence the expression. The word "bucket" still can be used today to refer to such a beam in the Norfolk dialect. It is thought that this definition came from the French word trébuchet or buque, meaning balance. William Shakespeare used the word in this sense in his play Henry IV Part II where he says:
Swifter than he that gibbets on the Brewers Bucket.
—William Shakespeare, Henry IV Part II
A third theory suggests that the origin of the phrase comes from the Catholic custom of holy-water buckets:
After death, when a body had been laid out ... the holy-water bucket was brought from the church and put at the feet of the corpse. When friends came to pray... they would sprinkle the body with holy water ... it is easy to see how such a saying as "kicking the bucket " came about. Many other explanations of this saying have been given by persons who are unacquainted with Catholic custom
—The Right Reverend Abbot Horne, Relics of Popery
Alternatively, in the moment of death a person stretches his legs (in Spanish Estirar la pata means 'to die') and so might kick the bucket placed there.
A fourth suggestion is that the phrase is related to one of the variations in the children's game of kick the can.

I share this in my ongoing effort to perplex those who like my landscape photography... but aren't so sure about the other stuff! Don't worry, my intentions are entirely positive. I'll remain a bit circumspect, but not entirely so. I like photographing urban scenes for a bunch of reasons, ranging from aesthetic to practical. On the practical side, they are often much more accessible — I can literally step out my front door and make photographs or perhaps find them at the end of a one-hour train ridge. They also challenge me to see in ways that are not in my native comfort zone, and they hone my ability to see quickly... which is a good thing. On the aesthetic side, if you know much about the history of photography and photographers, it is obvious that good work can be done in these places.
As to what is going on in this photograph, you shouldn't view it though the lens of landscape photography. Well, OK, perhaps you could do that. This is a kind of landscape. It even includes some native "wildlife." When you look at photographs of natural landscape, you probably look beyond the pure "beauty" of place and subject to consider the abstractions of from and color and implied motion and so forth. It might be worth trying the same thing with other subjects!

We don't use ordinary buckets for collecting our maple sap. We use various mason jars and these liter bottles we have. We use these because they're free, since we already own them. We also like that they allow us to see the amount of sap in each bottle. You do have to make sure they're not too full at night in case they freeze. We've never had any break, we try not to leave them more than half full overnight.

My bucket list.......
There are so many things on my bucket list that I want to do. Traveling, seeing sights, learning new things, making a difference, etc, etc.
The biggest thing on my bucket list though.....get married.
I want to be a part of something amazing. I want to develop a connection with someone more than just "hi, how was your week? Do anything fun? That's nice, Bye".
Right now though, this one particular item keeps eluding me. Its the one thing I can't do on my own. I can't make someone love me, I can't make someone want to be with me.
So for now, it's on my bucket list. I'm hoping someday I can cross it off.
Find two buckets that fit snugly into each other while leaving a few inches between the two buckets at the bottom for the water reservoir.

The Fleishhacker pool and pool house were built in 1924 by philanthropist Herbert Fleishhacker. The pool was the largest swimming pool in the United States. The pool held 6 million gallons of water and could accomodate 10,000 swimmers. The pool was closed in 1971 with the pool itself being paved over by the San Francisco Zoo for a new parking lot. The pool house which was used by bathers at the pool remains on its original site today in ruins.
