The Mrs.

  • The Village Carpenter
    Mrs. Fruit's woodworking blog, filled with pretty pictures and words I've never heard of. I really don't know what she's talking about. There are also a few cute pics of our companion animals, because we're gay and it's a requirement.

    Cool website

    If you want to buy or sell something that's handmade, this is for you:  etsy.com
    It's like Ebay for crafty people.

    iPod Update

    A neighbor told Mrs. Fruit this afternoon that the update offered for download this past week by iTunes was meant only for folks with the iPhone.  Which was not mentioned to prospective downloaders.  I did get my iPod working again, but syncing and managing the podcasts with this latest version is a pain in the arse.  Thanks, Apple!

    Podcasts I listen to

    • Answer Me This Podcast
      Funny stuff from three smarty-pants young Brits.
    • Cast-on with Brenda Dayne
      A knitting lesbian ex-pat living in Wales who gives really good podcast. She knows how to do it. Great music, too!
    • Classic Mysteries
      Short summaries of good classic mysteries.
    • Craft Mentality
      Amber and Tasha talk about kntting, sewing, cooking, reading and Project Runway.
    • Craftlit
      Billed as a "podcast for crafters who like to read." Heather is a writer, teacher, mom, blogger etc. with great insights. Podcast ends with a chapter or two from whatever book is currently featured.
    • Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
    • Decently and in order
      A podcast about life in the Presbyterian Church (USA), by four pastors under 40.
    • Fresh Air With Terry Gross
    • Girls on Girls
      Two really funny and cute lesbian comics. I listen while I walk the dogs, grinning and guffawing down the street.
    • Great Speeches in History
      These are great. If possible (e.g. JFK), they come with the original speaker. If not (e.g. Jesus), they have really good readers reading the speeches/lectures/sermons.
    • Jonathan Ross
      Not as sexy as old Russ, but funny and good interviewer. Except he asked Keeley Hawes about her poo; I didn't appreciate that.
    • Matt's Today in History
      Matt Dattilo reading about stuff that happened today in history. Obviously.
    • New Yorker
    • News From Lake Wobegon
      Now you don't have to be home on Saturday evenings to catch Garrison Keillor's monologue.
    • NYT Front Page
      Daily headlines from the front page of the New York Times. The link takes you to all the Times' podcasts.
    • Oxford Biographies
      Short biographical sketches of famous Brits.
    • Oypod
      A Jewish teen podcast. This kid plays great music, among other things, such as Hebrew slang and news from Israel.
    • Rachel Maddow's MSNBC show (audio)
    • Radio 3 Arts and Ideas
      Pretty self-explanatory. From the Beeb.
    • Russell Brand
      Alas, old Russ resigned from the BBC so his podcasts are no longer available, but here's a link to his youtube website. He's smart, articulate and damn sexy. And he knows that "drugs is bad."
    • Savage Love Podcast
      Profane, disgusting, entertaining and very educational podcast based on Dan Savage's sex column. I've learned about some things I rather wish I hadn't, but can't stop listening. Mrs. Fruit refuses to partake----too many F-bombs.
    • Stephen Fry's Podgrams
      Writer, actor, comedian, filmmaker, Mac enthusiast and really interesting podcaster. The worst thing about this podcast is that he doesn't do it enough.
    • The Archers
      My current, hopeless addiction. A daily podcast of the world's longest running daily soap.
    • The Football Phone-in 606
      Folks call in after soccer games to rant, give props, etc.
    • The Lesbian Mafia
    • The Planet
      I love these womyn! Hysterically funny podcast, ostensibly about The L Word, but more often random observations about anything and everything. This is one of the best podcasts out there.
    • Wiggly Podcast
      A really well-done podcast about organic farming, composting, agriculture, etc.
    • World Literature Podcasting
      Classics of world literature discussed and summarized.
    • World War II History
      You can download podcasts or subscribe to the blog, which provides daily updates.
