If you’d asked me in my gap-toothed younger years about my career aspirations, you’d receive one shrill reply: “Egyptologist!” (And maybe anthropologist. Writing was not yet a twinkle in my eye.) I occupied myself with musings on canopic jars, naming my dolls after mythological gods of the dead, and mummifying a deceased mouse I found in my basement.
Read about all my morbid habits and Egyptian obsessions on the Etsy Blog. (Lots of great Egyptian-inspired goodies, too!)
P.S. It’s so good to be back blogging again. That hiatus was killing me.
I love the collection you put together for Etsy! How interesting that you wanted to be an Egyptologist… my close friend has a friend from university that IS an Egyptologist.
PS: Kudos on the post title… what a song!
