Loving My Chalk Board

...from Saturday nights dinner party to say farewell to one of my favorite yoga teachers, Sarah Trelease, who is moving to Portland. Just another reason to go back and visit! It was also a party to acknowledge the 65th birthday of Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi who is the democratically elected leader of Burma/Myanmar who has been under house arrest for 13 years. For more on the situation in Burma and on how you can help please check out the US Campaign for Burma's site their work is incredibly important. We all need to put whatever pressure we can on our government to see that Aung San Suu Kyi is freed from house arrest and allowed to lead her country, bringing democracy and fairness back to the people of Burma. The Chinese backed military dictatorship should be arrested and tried for crimes against humanity.

OK soap box has been put away.

OK yes I am embarrassed to admit it, but for some reason when I was doing this chalk board I had a brain fart and decided to add a "g" to the Aung San Suu Kyi so it reads Aung Sang... oops.
