Mary, glad you liked the haibuns. I think I need to get out of the box I’ve put myself in.

Also, I’m not sure I could eat mac and cheese EVERY week…but you never know.

I love the mac-off idea — brilliant! Although I have to say, I just recently googled haibuns after reading yours and have been digging those posts as well.

Maybe you can have regular “Mac-off Mondays” and offer a periodic “Holiday Haibun” feature.

Yeah, Bernard, I’m thinking I need some fresh inspiration. As a poet yourself, you know how that goes. I just came across a book of haibun reviewed in Frogpond, and I think I’ll read that to see if that man’s approach is different from mine. My haibuns have gotten stale.
