The Origins of the Irish: a review
Derdriu,
There are some massive eels in Irish waters.
I would doubt that Henry 1st ever tasted British eels. Norman kings hardly visited Britain. They preferred France,: William 1st died there as did Henry 1st himself. The Normans had no ...

The Origins of the Irish: a review
Two questions arise in a somewhat related, somewhat unrelated direction from your comment in that second paragraph to The Beginnings subheading.

The Origins of the Irish: a review
The Irish elk was extincted probably due to hunting, but it was an evolutionary failure because its antlers were too heavy and because they used up far too much calcium, certainly more than was gòod for their overall nutrition.

The Origins of the Irish: a review
We are uncertain as to whether pigs were transported or whether wild pigs made their way across, but there are neither historical accounts nor legends as to who brought cattle and bangers. The events occurred too long ago, to be known to history.

Thinking About Painting Your Walls Pink?
Your images are convincing in establishing whether lighter or vivider pinks need to prevail.
My favorite is the kitchen. My second favorite is the children's room, with the beautifully imperfectly painted chair, whose blue expenses and red ...

The Origins of the Irish: a review
The second paragraph to your first subheading, The Beginnings, ends with mention of early animal imports as badgers, cattle and pigs.
The Hawaiian archipelago is not endemic and native animal-rich because of its beginnings in lava flows. ...

The Origins of the Irish: a review
A fascinating article and you make several points which certainly dispel many myths, namely the use of the term Celts, the method and starting points for crossing the Irish Sea and the language origin.
I am delighted you like your book !

The Great Wave of Kanagawa from Japanese Artist Hokusai
The second paragraph to your third subheading What comes to mind? What is about to happen?, considers that "It looks as if the wave will gobble the boats. By the way, have you wondered the fate of the boat and the state of the people sailing in ...

Frances Brundage, an artist of picture books and postcards
It's sadly interesting that it's more difficult to find information regarding Frances' birth family and her husband than relating to her.
The little bit that I've found regarding William Brundage and Rembrandt Lockwood makes me think of them as ...

Thinking About Painting Your Walls Pink?
There's so much information here that I hope that you write some more wizzlies about matching colors to rooms and vice versa!
Also, what would you think about a wizzley about rooms whose occupants have one wall one color and the other walls ...

Color associations are interesting.
In nature, yellow, then white, then purple can be associated with earliest spring weather in terms of floral blooms. Red is associated with offputting taste and texture in terms of bird and insect ...

Frances Brundage, an artist of picture books and postcards
Her second, wifely role identifies a collaboration between Frances and her husband. In fact, the Old Man of the Sea image just below that subheading indicates "Will & Frances Brundage."
Is it possible that there also was a collaboration between ...
