| 2nd April 2007 Marnie | All my love... - From: India: a quagmire Sarah, It has been absolutely wonderful to be able to experience India through your blog. You might not yet be able to see all of the ways that you have grown and changed but it shines through in your pictures and in your writings. I see it in your face, I hear it in the words that you write. I don't know what the changes are but they shine through loud and clear. XOXO, Marnie P.S. Looking forward to seeing you when you get back. |
| 2nd April 2007 Sarah and Carlie | On my way - From: India: a quagmire Hi Sarah, Quagmire reminds me of the creepy guy from Family Guy. So fitting in so many ways. I'm in an internet cafe at Mumbai International paying (gasp!) rs.80 per hour! Hope the separation anxiety hasn't set in yet. Xo |
| 1st April 2007 anonymous | - From: A Great Read REALLY MISSING YOUR BLOGS!!! |
| 25th March 2007 PJ Polo | Magnifique - From: Ode to a Tent Ahhh the writer in you is starting to push out like a baby crowning. Soon you will go pop and never look back at the womb that was the domain of your previous days before you discovered the art of enlightenment through words. |
| 25th March 2007 PJ Polo | thanks! - From: A Great Read Wow that's awful nice of you guys to reference me. I truly feel honored. Thanksgiving is sounding pretty good right now after eating rice and dal now for 3 months!! |

| 23rd March 2007 anonymous | - From: In which we have hot water and tv Thank you. :) |
| 23rd March 2007 Sarah and Carlie | Little Green things are......... - From: In which we have hot water and tv Lol, ok ok, they are tea seeds. Yes, those little green things are, in fact, the begining of big green things whose leaves give us the lovely black liquid that allows us to start our days. |
| 23rd March 2007 A. Karen | - From: Ode to a Tent Good job!!! |
| 23rd March 2007 A. Karen | - From: Indish Hi Carlie, Your article was not little little funny, but but big big funny! You make me to laugh very very much. On a serious note I was oblivious to the fact that we smell like sour milk. lol |
| 22nd March 2007 Random | Ode to a Tent - From: Ode to a Tent Your poem and newspaper column are absolutely a delight to read . (many times over). Keep your blogs coming, please! |
| 20th March 2007 PJ Polo | What? - From: Varka-what? Carlie you are a seriously talented writer. What is this rust business? Stop being so modest gosh darnit you have an amazing ability to share your experiences in an enlightening way. Sarah does too. You two are the dynamic duo of blogging. |
| 19th March 2007 A. Karen | - From: In which we have hot water and tv Hi Sarah, Good to hear you and Carlie have been rejuvenated. Please don't leave me hanging. What are those little green things? |
| 19th March 2007 A.Karen | - From: Excuses, excuses Hi Carlie. No suspense in Surrey. I know you will have a wonderful time in Malaysia!!! Looking forward to your next blog. Brian and Kim are back from Mexico. They had a good time but wished their stay was longer. Janice and Patrick left early this morning for Mexico. Janice excited? You bet. Grandma and Grandpa's 60th wedding anniversary party was a success. Was my first time meeting Bell, and she is a sweetie. Take care. Love A. Karen |
| 13th March 2007 Gerry | Great blog ... - From: Mmmmmm, that smells good..... ... knowing my knowledge of science and nature I won't even guess at fruit/veggie looking thing. Maria looks sweet as does the fearsome Sarah behind the wheel of a rickshaw - all sounds wonderful. Keep well and safe. |
| 13th March 2007 Sarah and Carlie | good try - From: Mmmmmm, that smells good..... No, it's not persimmon and I am not sure if it grows here. A lot of things do though, so maybe. But keep trying, it is all about the effort! xo S |
| 13th March 2007 anonymous | Me again - From: Mmmmmm, that smells good..... Gosh do they even grow persimmon in India? duh |
| 13th March 2007 A. Karen | - From: Mmmmmm, that smells good..... Decided to take a wild guess re little green things. Could they be persimmon at a very early stage of growth? Okay, okay don't laugh too hard! At least I tried.:) |
| 13th March 2007 A. Karen | - From: Mmmmmm, that smells good..... What a wonderful read!!!!! Pictures are great and I like the fact that they can be viewed while reading your blog. Had a chuckle over your "shaken not stirred" comment. The elephant is a cutie and how lucky are you to have been able to ride it. I have no idea what those little green things are. I am sure someone out there knows. Take care. |
| 11th March 2007 Sarah and Carlie | Yes, Congratulations! - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" The answer is Jackfruit and you get extra points for looking up the latin name (though I knew you would!). LOL, love you mum. |
| 11th March 2007 Jane | pop quiz again - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" Ha! Is it Jackfruit (Artocarpus heteropyllus) also called Jaca or Nangka and related to breadfruit? I bet you took the pic on the isolated Silence Island. xo J |
| 10th March 2007 Susan Charnock | My mind is Blogged - From: Varka-what? Thanks Sarah and Carlie for this mystery tour. It's way better than someone's slideshow after they get home. Your generation has really got it right. So much of what I'm hearing is sticking like bubblegum on my psyche especially at red lights. xoxo Sue |
| 10th March 2007 Sarah and Carlie | Congratualtions! You are the winner! - From: Varka-what? You guessed the correct fruit, good job. Though I am guessing, by your response, that you have never actually tried Jackfruit?! |
| 10th March 2007 Sarah and Carlie | Close, very close - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" Well, you came very close, it is, infact, the outer shell of a type of fruit. The question is which fruit? Hint: itis the national fruite of Bangladesh. |
| 10th March 2007 Brad | - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" Hey Sarah: Great blogging and pics! Thanks for the postcard- just got it today... we'll definitely pass that hug along to Grandma for you! We've got a couple of guesses for the pic: Val thinks it's the middle of a flower, but I think it looks like the hard outer shell of some kind of fruit. Not sure which. Good to see you're having fun! Take care of yourself! Love, Brad & Val. |
| 10th March 2007 Jane | pop quiz - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" Well... It has the texture of a bitter gourd (Karela or Momordica charantia) but it looks much bigger than that. Perhaps it is a Bread-fruit (Artocarpus altilis)? Lovely image. I appreciate your new illustrated blog format. xox J |
| 7th March 2007 anonymous | - From: Varka-what? Jackfruit. Mmmmm. Delicious. |
| 7th March 2007 Sarah and Carlie | Hi Gram.... - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" Poor burnt porridge! I'm glad you like the blogs, it is so good to hear that people are reading them, it makes us more excited about putting them up. As to the riddle, you are close with the idea that it is a fruite, but not banana's. Love you xoxo Sarah |
| 7th March 2007 Hooked on you | Carlie and Sarah - From: Varka-what? I am enjoying ever word you are writing. Often times I must read each blog three or four times , to fully comprehend. Thanks for your thoughts. |
| 6th March 2007 Molly Baigent | Two in one! Amazing. - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" Hey Sarah, what a lovely surprise to get words pouring out like a fountain today. I think the answer to your riddle for the day is, the ends of unripe bananas, boxed ready to export. I love the blogging of both of you, thank you for taking time out from your wonderful adventure, to let us share a little too. Please continue, it's my fix for the day. Thinking of you with love Gram |
| 6th March 2007 random | - From: a word on "The Sunshine Cafe" Great pictures! Good read, and looking forward to the next one. |
| 6th March 2007 Molly Baigent | Burnt Porridge - From: Varka-what? Carlie, I'm Sarahs Gramma, and have been totally enthralled by this blog from the biginning. This mornings didn't disappoint me. While I was cooking my breakfast, I checked to see if we had another installment, when I found it, I couldn't leave a word unread, until I smelled the porridge burning! Uninportant, back to the blog, isn't most thinking random wandering? You are your worst critic. Keep writing, every blog is being gratefully received. Thank you Carlie and Sarah. |
| 25th February 2007 PJ Polo | you've been blogrolled baby - From: "Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa" You are now officially on my blogroll. Congrats. You are one of two now to make this achievement. Of course you can always link me too ;) PJ |
| 24th February 2007 A. Karen | - From: "Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa Mapsa" Keep the pictures coming. Don't feel guilty about going to the spa as it is all part of the experience. I should feel guilty because the market looks like a shoppers paradise, and I spent at least 15 minutes looking through all the items, and was going to send you a list of my favourites. I particularly liked the little boxes. Was that a hint?? Bad Auntie. Your participation at the Children's shelter should be enlightening. U. Adrian sends a big HELLO. Take care. Love A. Karen |
| 19th February 2007 A.Karen | - From: there's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza Hi!! Pleased to read that you are feeling BETTER, and ready for some literary action. Needless to say I have missed reading your blogs. Quick update on my family....Kathy is in California for reading break and is excited about surfing. She is anticipating being in the audience at the Jay Leno Show. lol Brian and Kim leave for Mexico on March 3rd. Janice and Patrick leave for Mexico on March 19th. All of them are ready for some well deserved R & R. Keep healthy and safe. |
| 16th February 2007 PJ Polo | sweet blog - From: Are you sure my body will bend that way?! Cool cool ladies. Keep up the wonderful journal. Stay in touch. :) |
| 16th February 2007 Marnie | - From: Are you sure my body will bend that way?! It has been so amazing for me to read your thoughts and feelings about being in India and seeing so much juxtaposition everywhere. I always find it exciting to watch people grow and change. Reading your blogs and seeing this in both of you in such a short amount of time makes me so excited to see what else will happen over the next few months of your travels. India always has a way of changing people and in some small ways it is changing me through your writings. Much Love, Marnie |
| 13th February 2007 A. Karen | - From: Flip-Flop Trekking Of course we are reading your blogs, and really enjoying them!! The body surfing sounded a bit painful. I had no idea you were trekking through a forest with GIANT POISONOUS SPIDERS while in Australia. Horror of horrors. Hope you can display more pictures. Continue to enjoy yourself. Love A. Karen |
| 12th February 2007 Jonathon Lumberjack | don't knock it till you try it! - From: Flip-Flop Trekking Hey, eh!? Don't knock selling Christmas Trees in New York - best job of my life. You bring so much happiness to so many people. I thought it was going to be a rather silly job, but in fact, was very very wonderful. Actually, I figure that Christmas Trees are probably the most fantastic spiritual object that is bought and sold in the world. Sure, maybe Crucifix' or Islamic Prayer Mats, or Mantra Beads might out-rank trees in terms of sales, but no spiritual object brings more instant inspiration and deep felt joy than a fresh smelling ever-green tree. And no, not many trees were actually $500. Many normal trees sold for $30 - $100 ;) Lumberjack Jonathon |
| 12th February 2007 anonymous | - From: Flip-Flop Trekking Hi Carlie and Sarah. $$$$ Come December you will find me, a Canadian lumberjackie, standing on a street corner of the West Village. After all these years I have finally been told where the easy $$$$$$$ is. Tomorrow I will begin searching for my plaid shirts, and in keeping with the season, and being Canadian, I will look for the good old red and white plaid. Do you think a pair of black, red or green pants would complete the ensemble? Maybe a few sprigs of berry laden holly hanging from my hair, and a pair of silver jingling bells dangling from my ears would entice people to buy MY trees. Hey, how about a pair of fabric antlers as well. Those should really get the crowds attention. Boy o boy I am on a roll now. Yes, I do believe a big red rudolph nose could clinch the deal. New York City here I come!!! Just being goofy. I promise that my next message will be short and sweet. Continue enjoying your adventures. Would love to see more pictures. Carlie, do you think you could get directions to West Village from your friend Jonathan. Hopefully he won't mind giving them out.....unless of course he is afraid of the competition. OMG enough already. |
| 8th February 2007 A. Karen | - From: Flat Line Hello, hello. What a WONDERFUL read! I will be the first in line to buy the book that I suggest you must to write. I also want mine signed. Keep safe. Love A. Karen |
| 7th February 2007 Brad | Sounds good - From: of books and music Glad to see thing are going better... just wanted to let you know that we're following along. Also, I gave the URL to my mom, so keep it clean! ;) |
| 6th February 2007 A. Karen | - From: MIA Hi!!!! Okay I am really irritating myself. Twice I have typed something inspirational to you, and twice I have accidently pressed the wrong key and deleted them. Now I am all inspirationalized out, ( is that even a word) and at my age I can't recall what I typed. So, continue to enjoy your trip, and I will ask Uncle Adrian for a head massage so as to get my brain working again. Later, Love Auntie Karen |
| 1st February 2007 Jane | ha ha ha - From: Finally...beaches to our hearts content! Got it! Great to SEE where you are. |

| 30th January 2007 Sarah and Carlie | Sorry Phil and Anna! - From: Cardiff Castle We barely had any time in Cardiff! We got there at night, spent the day shivering in the castle and then had a dinner and left the next morning. You were on our minds and we kept meaning to call. Next time, promise! |
| 30th January 2007 A. Karen | - From: Cardiff Castle Hi! You are right Carlie, the Lennox lasagne can't be beat. Too bad you couldn't have made one up for your friends. Drool, drool. Now you have me thinking of putting one together. On second thought, no too lazy today. Maybe I can get your mom to do it and send it over my way. lol Thanks for the e-mail. Looking forward to your next entry. Later, Love A. Karen |
| 26th January 2007 Anna Sp. | - From: Cardiff Castle Phylie was waiting for your call or email! You have to stop back off in Cardiff now to make up for that! hehe. She would have loved to have seen you, but she was also busy with exams, and now off to London. Hope you had a lovely time in the worlds ugliest Capital, (I am allowed to say that!). xxx |
| 24th January 2007 A. Karen | - From: Catch up Hello, My, you have been busy, and certainly making the most of your stay in London. We are all well here and think of you everyday.
