The tea was delicious as was the ordering process and the minimal time I had to wait for the delivery. The website is easy to navigate and orders even easier to place. I will be a repeat customer.

2 Yankees in search of really great mexican and tex-mex--plano area
- w
- Wannabfoode Oct 14, 2010 02:41 PM
We'll be visiting from Boston this weekend for a wedding, and was hoping for a few recommendations for really good mexican, tex-mex and taco stands. Or if there are any other cuisines that are unique to texas or the south, we'd be up for that too! This is my first trip to texas, so I don't quite know what to ask for. We'll be staying in plano and in corinth, but should have access to a car, so we're able and willing to travel for great eats. Also, if you could please include best dishes to order from your recommendations that would be fanastic. Thanks for your help!
In Denton La Mexicana is a reasonably good easy to get to general Taco and seafood place http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/13/886205.... There are better but not a close drive with seating. Taco Lady in Denton is also good, but not really all that "user" friendly.
La Mexicana
619 S Locust St, Denton, TX 76201
If you were visiting me (I live in Plano) I'd probably drive down to El Ranchito so we could get things like mollejas and cabrito. The other place I've taken people is Nuevo Leon in Farmer's Branch. I don't think too much of tex mex or Mexican stuff in Plano, there's decent stuff (Chito's) but nothing I'd really want to bring an out of towner to. A nicer place on Henderson is Cafe San Miguel, if you're into that.
If you're foodies, another thing you can do for lunch is swing by the Dallas Farmer's market and get some BBQ brisket from Pecan Lodge, I haven't had a chance to try it yet but everybody seems to like it.
El Ranchito
610 W Jefferson Blvd, Dallas, TX 75208
Cafe San Miguel
1907 N Henderson Ave, Dallas, TX 75206
we're also down with street food and trucks...seating is not required, just really banging food!
Check hours before you drive all over the place. Some might be closed on odd days or only be open during daytime and may be cash only. Since you're comfortable with dives, from my experience:
El Fuego in Richardson. -Chicharron, lunch specials (open daytime only I think), homemade corn tortillas.
Casa Milagro across the street. (Tex-Mex). -Chile Rellenos (brisket, puerco)
El Torito in Plano -Go to lunch here frequently and enjoy most of the menu. Dive.
Fuel City (of I35 in downtown Dallas) - Picadillo (beef+potato) tacos, gas station, no seating.
Gonzalez in Oak Cliff (south of downtown Dallas). Thick homemade flour tortillas. If you go ask for salsa fresca with your chips.
Tortas Las Tortugas - pork Tortas.
Taqueria El Si Hay a few blocks north across the street from Bolsa. Al Pastor tacos, no seating. There may be a Elotes (corn) vendor next to the shack.
Local chains you may want to avoid (or not): Chuy's, El Fenix, Ojeda's, Luna de Noche, Mi Cocina, Pappasito's, Blue Goose, Cantina Laredo, Desperados, Taco Diner. These places are usually pleasant and nice but I go for food and there are better values elsewhere.

re: amokscience
I totally agree with all the above!
re: amokscience
thats fantastic! keep 'em coming. Anything we HAVE to eat while in texas? What about bbq?
re: Wannabfoode
Here's one you wont find in Boston. Hattie's on Bishop in the Bishop Art's area in Oak Cliff. Lovely restaurant serving really good "low country" Southern cooking. Have the shrimp 'n grits with their incredible tabasco sauce. And, the best Caesar salad this side of California.
Another excellent restaurant in the Bishop's Art's area is Bolsa on Davis Street. It's another "must try" that you won't find in Boston.
And by the same owners of Bolsa, Smoke. In the Belmont Hotel on Ft. Worth Avenue in Oak Cliff. A different spin on BBQ. Have their eponymous, "Big Rib".
Most all the food is locally sourced and everything is made from scratch.
I highly recommend all the above. And, you're sure to love Oak Cliff. The best, "not so well kept" secret in Dallas. Happy eating.
614 W Davis St, Dallas, TX
Go to Chuy's it awesome. There are 2 locations in Plano.
3408 N Central Expy, Plano, TX 75074
Another place to go to while you are in Corinth would be Babe's chicken house in Sanger. While it's not necessarily the best of bread, it's an experience to go to the Sanger location on the old town square. The food is good and the experience is worth it. http://www.babeschicken.com/Babes-Chi...
re: irodguy
Ditto Babe's! Any of their locations.
Great suggestions. However, I disagree with the tip to avoid El Fenix.
El Fenix is VERY STRONG and you can easily find quite a few locations. It's a local "chain" and I've never had a bad experience. For my money, they have the best chips and salsa and enchilada's which are ALL CORNERSTONES of GREAT TEX-MEX!

I'd much rather go to El Fenix than Chuy's given a choice.

re: twinwillow
There I go again. Agreeing with Twinwillow. Is this some new parallel universe??
re: Analisas mom
I don't really care all that much for either Chuy's or El Fenix but would certainly pick El Fenix over Chuy's if I just had to choose one over the other. In fact we use to eat at El Fenix after Mass on Sundays and just got out of the habit somewhere down the line.
I am surprised no one has mentioned Aparicios in Plano, one of those restaurants that a lot of people like but I do not. I have only eaten maybe three times there but was disappointed with each visit.
Although it has been awhile since I have made it there, I have to second the rec for Nuevo Leon in Farmer's Branch, I have had several really good meals there.
I drive down Jefferson in Oak Cliff now and again with my job but have never stopped to eat at any of the places along there so I guess I really owe it to myself to do so.
San Miguel Grill up in McKinney is good Tex-Mex and has the sort of decor that reminds me of the Tex-Mex places my family use to eat in when I was growing up. Family owned and operated, I have stopped in there a couple of times now while driving back in from Greenville and enjoyed both times. I just forget about it but my wife keeps reminding me that I have promised her a visit since she has never been there. See http://sanmiguelgrillmex.com/index.ph...
San Miguel Grill
506 W University Dr, McKinney, TX 75069
Although I've not been to either, both of the following Tex-Mex restaurants have had excellent reviews for very good food and ambiance. Cafe San Miguel on Henderson Avenue and, Manny's Uptown on Oak Grove between east and west Lemmon just "below" McKinney Avenue.
They've both been on my "must do" list.
Cafe San Miguel
1907 N Henderson Ave, Dallas, TX 75206
I'll throw yet, another one into the pot. El Rincon Tapatio on W. Jefferson in Oak Cliff. Comfortable seating, delicious food and excellent, warm and friendly service.
My "taco gang" had lunch here Saturday and really enjoyed it. Except for one of our gang, we were the only "gringos" there.
Not just tacos, either. Lots of delicious guisados and enchilada plates available. Along with a taco of your choice, rice and beans from $5.75-$7.75.
We're definitely returning.
re: twinwillow
Jose is a great guy.
re: DallasDude
Heh, heh, 'Dude. There are no secrets in this town. Btw, he (and others) speak highly of you, too.
re: James Cristinian
Well I am glad that you brought this up James because that gives me an excuse to give a rec to Love & War in Texas. Really good chicken fried steaks plus good Texas music most weekends.
At their Plano location there is still one more Shiner Sunday scheduled for this month (Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers w/James Hyland of South Austin Jug Band $15 ) and of course along with that a chance to drink some of our great Shiner Bock beer which I am sure is not available in Boston :-)

Tristan Bechet and Christopher Pravdica, veterans of New York's Flux Information Society, one of the city's seminal techno bands, regrouped as Services to mix a little more rock in with all of the computers. Using a cut-and-paste editing technique clearly imitative of Zappa, the pair piece together tape loops and heavy metal riffs with both disdain and affection. This impartial rearrangement of borrowed material, all set against start-stop machine gun beats, actually enhances the appeal. Danceable in a violent kind of way, cuts like "Element of Danger" and "Alive" come across like a bizarre mutation of Soft Cell and Ministry. The edits are so harsh and random that each cut threatens to break apart with only an unvarying thump holding things together. "Take me back to the cemetery where I am buried/At once!" barks Bechet on the sinister "Cemetery" while co-conspirator Pravdica makes the menacing bursts of noise somehow sound funky. Many of Bechet's best lines are contemptuous commands or sneering put-downs--check out the vitriolic bile of "Figure it Out" and "Expensive Shit" for a real taste of uppity, uptown chutzpah. Extreme and rewarding, Services make music that celebrates the artistic value of unpleasantness.

Man wins lottery four times

A man recently collected $500,000 in the Virginia Lottery's Millionaire Mania scratch-off game. This wouldn't be that unusual except that it was the fourth time the same man has won the lottery, not by playing giant-jackpot Mega Millions or Powerball games, but through simple scratch-off games.
In addition to his recent winnings, Melvyn Wilson, of Woodbridge, Va., won $1 million in a scratch-off game in 2005, the same year he also won $500,000. In 2004, he won $25,000. He's now won a total of $2,025,000 in lottery winnings.
Wilson has earned the nickname "Mr. Lucky" and attributes his winnings to being in the right place at the right time.
The odds of winning the lottery extremely rare, as seen in here:

Coronary Artery Disease Mechanisms in High Risk Families--Racial Difference
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
To examine whether differences existed between asymptomatic white and African Americans known to be at high risk for premature coronary artery disease (CAD) in risk factor distributions, prevalence of occult coronary disease, and mechanisms of coronary disease expression.
Cardiovascular Diseases
Coronary Disease
Heart Diseases
|Study Type:
|Study Start Date:
|September 1992
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|August 1996
The investigators hypothesized that increased platelet activation and coronary artery vasoconstriction exist in African Americans, due to greater vascular endothelial dysfunction, heightened adrenergic drive, and greater vascular reactivity, resulting in excess sudden death and the occurrence of myocardial infarction in people with less severe angiographic coronary disease.
The study was one of eight grants awarded as part of the Request for Applications "Mechanisms Underlying Coronary Heart Disease in Blacks". The initiative was released in October 1991 and awarded in September 1992.
Previous studies had demonstrated high prevalences of coronary disease risk factors and occult coronary disease in this sibling population. Subjects were recruited to come for a one day screening, with measurement of coronary disease risk factors (blood pressure, smoking, lipid profile, apolipoproteins B and A1, lipoprotein(a), blood glucose, insulin, and fibrinogen), and a maximal treadmill test with tomographic thallium imaging to identify occult coronary disease. Platelet function was assessed by spontaneous in-vitro aggregation, activated IIa/IIIb receptor density, and serum thromboxane B2 concentration. Factors contributing to sudden cardiac death were assessed by an echocardiogram for left ventricular mass, electrocardiogram (ECG) for QRS late potentials, and 24 hour ECG monitoring for ventricular arrhythmias, episodes of silent ischemia, and heart rate variability (to assess adrenergic drive). Vascular reactivity was characterized by heart rate and blood pressure changes during Stroop color card and cold pressor testing. Siblings with an abnormal exercise ECG and/or thallium scan were offered coronary arteriography to assess the severity of angiographic coronary disease and the vasomotor responses to isometric handgrip and intracoronary acetylcholine, an endothelium-dependent vasodilator. In coronary arteries with minimal angiographic disease, changes in coronary vascular resistance during handgrip and acetylcholine were also measured with a doppler flow velocity catheter and the proximal arteries were imaged with intravascular ultrasound.

Don't take it from us, here's what others are saying...
C Panty is amazing! I work in surgery and was excited to try these out, especially since I have had a previous c-section. After wearing the C-Panty daily for about 2 weeks, I noticed that my c-section incision was already turning white. That is the sign that it is healing. C-Panty also provides compression and great abdominal support! The silicone in these panties really does help speed up the recovery process and also makes wearing pants more comfortable because it provides protection from anything rubbing against your incision.

Shrinkx Belly is easy to use and the results were great. I lost 7.5 inches around my waist in just two weeks.
Don't take it from us, here's what others are saying...
I love Shrinkx Hips! After giving birth my hips were 44". After wearing Shrinkx Hips I am down to 39" and I still have 10 lbs to lose before I am back to my normal weight. Thank you Shrinkx Hips!
Don't take it from us, here's what others are saying...
My daughter just started learning to walk and Walking Wings has been a lifesaver for us. She is able to move around the room without falling and hurting herself and it is so much easier on my back than bending over and trying to hold her little arms.
Don't take it from us, here's what others are saying...
I know that breastfeeding is the best thing I can do for my baby but I enjoy my occasional glass of wine. Milkscreen makes it so easy to check if your breast milk contains alcohol or not.
Don't take it from us, here's what others are saying...
I liked Milkflow's berry taste and didn't experience the negative fenugreek side effects (maple syrup smell). Milkflow is convenient and easy to take with a better response than fenugreek pills alone. Milkflow is also a much better alternative than the expensive fenugreek drops that taste awful.

This week marks the launch of Apple's latest attempt at changing the way we interact with technology, as Apple Pay, the company's version of mobile contactless technology, debuts in the US.
Whilst this launch is currently limited to the US, the chances are if all goes to plan it will launch in the UK within the next 6 months.
But what exactly is Apple Pay? And is it going to affect your small business?
There's a slim chance it could be another fad which flops, but it could also be the system which pushes widespread adoption of mobile payments. So the question is, as a small business, should you look into preparing for Apple Pay?

Travel time on Amtrak's Vermonter line will be cut by nearly 30 minutes through a $72.8 million grant to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. The project will restore a rail line, improving 50 miles of track and infrastructure on a direct route from Springfield to East Northfield, Mass. along the Connecticut River Valley.With more than a sixteen percent ridership increase in 2010, the Vermonter line operates between St. Albans, Vt. and Washington, D.C. The Massachusetts portion of the rail line dates back to the mid-1800s. After track conditions deteriorated in the 1980s, Amtrak service was shifted to a rail line farther east. Work to restore the original passenger route on Pan Am Southern Railway's Connecticut River mainline also includes construction of two new stations in Greenfield and Northampton, Mass. Progress on the Vermonter service began last year with a $50 million grant to the Vermont Agency of Transportation, improving 190 miles of track between St. Albans and Vernon, shaving 30 minutes off of travel time within Vermont. Long-term, the investments in Vermont and Massachusetts also will increase reliability and for future expansion of service to Montreal.

Cosmo Cosmolino
Helen Garner, Ramona Koval
Cosmo Cosmolino
Helen Garner, Ramona Koval
He straightened his spine, raised his head, and extended his gun arm towards me in a slow, vertical arc. I saw then what he was, and stood still in front of him, for he was here on business. He was a small, serious, stone-eyed angel of mercy. Janet is a skeptic, a journalist; Maxine revels in New Age fantasies; and Ray, a drifter, is a born-again Christian. The common ground is the house they share. But their fragile domestic balance is about to explode amid the smashing of ukeleles, the unexpected ascension of an angel, and a sudden shower of jonquils.
by Jo Case
Cosmo Cosmolino (1992) was Helen Garner's last work of fiction before she pioneered her own distinctive brand of questing, addictive narrative non-fiction with The First Stone.
It's an unusual book; not quite a novel, not quite a short-story collection; both completely what you expect from a Helen Garner book (share houses, trams, ageing hippies, finely honed 'kitchen table candour', as Robert Dessaix put it when reviewing The Spare Room) and a surprising departure (faith, belief, angels, religion). The prose, too, is a mix of classic Garner – deceptively simple observations, dialogue so slyly provocative it makes you gasp – and a more ornate, poetic style: long sentences, images bunched together like bouquets rather than presented as polished, solitary gems in her usual fashion.
Cosmo Cosmolino consists of two short stories and one novella. The unnamed narrator of the first story, 'Recording Angel', is, the reader gradually realises, the same person as Janet, the recently divorced journalist and writer of the novella, 'Cosmo Cosmolino'. And Raymond, the self-absorbed, socially illiterate protagonist of the second story, 'A Vigil' (whose boorish negligence contributes to the death of his depressed, substance-abusing girlfriend) is one of Janet's two lodgers in 'Cosmo Cosmolino', now a chastened born-again Christian.
The three stories are united by themes as well as characters: dark maybe-angels appear in the first two and in the third, Raymond is greeted as an angel by mad artist Maxine, Janet's other lodger. Questions of faith and belief – how it can sustain, resurrect or transform – how misplaced faith can lead a person astray and lack of faith can leave a person barren – are central to all three stories.
Love and family are central too, despite (or maybe because of) the near-total absence of traditional family arrangements. Garner seems to be questioning the sustainability and the fall-out of the share house culture of her (and Janet's) past; self-made families that drift apart, leaving lonely individuals in their wake.
Janet's seriously ill friend Patrick in 'Recording Angel', who 'recited [her] life like a poem he had learnt by heart', has a wife and children who love him with a fierce straightforwardness missing from the other relationships in the book. He teases Janet for her nomadism, and what she later calls her 'unwifeliness' (she has 'no talent for intimacy'). Although Janet privately recognises Patrick's barbs as his need to contrast her life with his own, and she calls her domestic landscape a 'blasted heath' with her tongue firmly in cheek, what we later encounter in Cosmo Cosmolino is exactly that.
Both Janet and the wildly eccentric Maxine are childless; both feel it as an acute absence. When Janet recalls the share house 'kids', now scattered and presumably grown, it is bittersweet. Hearing passing schoolchildren, she muses, 'It was a good sound, she believed with the part of her still believed anything; but it hurt her.' The empty rooms in the house she owns, once a share house and now the aftermath of a recently failed marriage, are still named for those long-ago housemates who once occupied them. When Maxine and Raymond move into those unoccupied spaces, they are also creating a community of sorts again, though a diminished and ill-matched one.
There is a sense of hope about Cosmo Cosmolino, a sense of faith in community and the families we make, if a nagging sense that the permanence and transience of such families makes them no substitute for the bonds of blood or traditional unions. And there is the idea that loving and believing – even if such enterprises may be doomed to dissolve – is worth the plunge, and far preferable to the alternative of careful, closed-off cynicism.
This is a fascinating book, with flashes of brilliance and scenes of piercing truth. Helen Garner is never boring; she is always an artist. And this gorgeous Text Classics edition is well worth buying not just for its striking cover, but for Ramona Koval's illuminating introduction, which includes insights from Garner herself and a reflection on Cosmo Cosmolino's place within her body of work.

Derry councilor: Water rate hike doesn't feel right
Some members said the proposed rate increase came to soon on the heels of another rate increase Manchester Water Works, the wholesale water supplier to the town, had approved just six months before in March. The board wasted little time in voting 7-0 against the plan, which would have increased the average annual water bill by 1 percent.
The last such rate increase by Manchester Water Works took effect about five years ago, according to town staff.
Benson said the proposed rate hike "doesn't feel right to me."
The proposed rate increase was prompted by an increase in rates Manchester Water Works approved in June.
Like many other utilities, Manchester Water Works has experienced stagnant growth during the last 10 years. Other factors — such as added costs of water production, main replacements, power and labor — have also created the need to raise rates, according to town staff.

Defense Acquisitions:
Assessments of Selected Weapon Programs

This is GAO's seventh annual assessment of selected Department of Defense (DOD) weapon programs. The report examines how well DOD is planning and executing its weapon acquisition programs, an area that has been on GAO's high-risk list since 1990. This year's report is in response to the mandate in the joint explanatory statement to the Consolidated Security, Disaster Assistance, and Continuing Appropriations Act, 2009. The report includes (1) an analysis of the overall performance of DOD's 2008 portfolio of 96 major defense acquisition programs and a comparison to the portfolio performance at two other points in time--5 years ago and 1 year ago; (2) an analysis of current cost and schedule outcomes and knowledge attained by key junctures in the acquisition process for a subset of 47 weapon programs--primarily in development--from the 2008 portfolio; (3) data on other factors that could impact program stability; and (4) an update on changes in DOD's acquisition policies. To conduct our assessment, GAO analyzed cost, schedule, and quantity data from DOD's Selected Acquisition Reports for the programs in DOD's 2003, 2007, and 2008 portfolios. GAO also collected data from program offices on technology, design, and manufacturing knowledge, as well as on other factors that might affect program stability. GAO analyzed this data and compiled one- or two-page assessments of 67 weapon programs.
Since 2003, DOD's portfolio of major defense acquisition programs has grown from 77 to 96 programs; and its investment in those programs has grown from $1.2 trillion to $1.6 trillion (fiscal year 2009 dollars). The cumulative cost growth for DOD's programs is higher than it was 5 years ago, but at $296 billion, it is less than last year when adjusted for inflation. For 2008 programs, research and development costs are now 42 percent higher than originally estimated and the average delay in delivering initial capabilities has increased to 22 months. DOD's performance in some of these areas is driven by older programs, as newer programs, on average, have not shown the same degree of cost and schedule growth. For 47 programs GAO assessed in-depth, the amount of knowledge that programs attained by key decision points has increased in recent years; but most programs still proceed with far less technology, design, and manufacturing knowledge than best practices suggest and face a higher risk of cost increases and schedule delays. Early system engineering, stable requirements, and disciplined software management were also important as programs that exhibited these characteristics experienced less cost growth and shorter schedule delays on average. Program execution could be hindered by workforce challenges. A majority of the programs GAO assessed were unable to fill all authorized program office positions, resulting in increased workloads, a reliance on support contractors, and less personnel to conduct oversight. In December 2008, DOD revised its policy for major defense acquisition programs to place more emphasis on acquiring knowledge about requirements, technology, and design before programs start and maintaining discipline once they begin. The policy recommends holding early systems engineering reviews; includes a requirement for early prototyping; and establishes review boards to monitor requirements changes--all positive steps. Some programs we assessed have begun implementing these changes.

Some religious leaders on Wednesday pleaded with Nigerians to continue to pray for peace, progress and political stability of the nation.
They told the News Agency of Nigeria that the country needed constant prayers for God's intervention.
The Director of Social Communications of the Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos, Monsignor Gabriel Osu, said that fervent prayers would enable Nigerians to overcome the challenges threatening the nation's corporate existence.
"It is only through prayers that the current insecurity challenges will be a thing of the past for the country to move forward.''
Osu urged citizens to pray for their leaders to ensure good governance.
"Our leaders need prayers to implement developmental programmes; the nation can prosper when the citizens show goodwill for their leaders.
"This will greatly ensure successful implementation of government's programmes and policies at all levels,'' Osu noted.
Commenting on the rising cases of kidnapping and other vices, the cleric described the development as worrisome, saying that God's intervention was needed to combat it.
"Nigeria is in need of divine intervention to combat this rising case of kidnapping.
"Christian and Muslim communities must not be deterred in praying for the country over the challenge because this is a time that God often manifests himself."
Osu, however, urged the Federal Government to arrest the situation, saying that "such a trend does not promote the nation's corporate image before the international community."
Also speaking, the General Overseer of the Restoration Church, Pastor Joseph Okhiria-Abraham, advised Nigerians to be more prayerful for the country to "overcome the forces of evil."
He added that this would enable them experience "the love of God," adding that the country needed prayers to overcome its security challenges.
"Prayer is essential in our daily life because without it, people will be vulnerable to the enemy,'' he said.
The cleric noted that selfishness, doubt, pride and sin, hindered prayers from being answered.
He said that prayers would enrich the soul and give people an opportunity to experience God.
He appealed to Nigerians to pray for their leaders so that they could formulate policies that would facilitate economic development and employment opportunities.
Also, Imam Mustapha Adebello, a lecturer in Islamic Studies at the Lagos State University, said there would not be problems if Nigerians were united.
The cleric said the challenges facing the country would be over when they embraced unity, love and peace
He urged Nigerians and their leaders not to be selfish, adding that "selfless leader and people will make the nation excel."

Summary: Never Done is the first history of American housework. Beginning with a description of household chores in the nineteenth century -- cooking at fireplaces and on cast-iron stoves, laundry done with wash boilers and flatirons, spring house-cleaning that had to purge the home of a winter's worth of soot and grime, endless water hauling and fire tending -- Susan Strasser demonstrates how industrialization transformed the nature of women's work. Lightening some tasks and ...show more eliminating the need for others, new commercial processes inexorably altered women's daily lives and relationships -- with each other and with the people they served.
In this lively and authoritative book, Strasser weaves together the history of material advances and domestic service, the development of "women's separate sphere," and the impact of advertising, home economics, and women's entry into the workforce. Hailed as pathbreaking when originally published, Never Done remains an eye-opening examination of daily life in the American past. ...show less

Analysis of The Revolt of Mother
Analysis of "The Revolt of 'Mother'" "The Revolt of 'Mother'" by Mary Wilkins Freeman, was a story of a woman who lived in New England around or before the author's time. The mother, Sarah Penn, was kept out of the families decisions by the father, Adoniram Penn, until one event that lead to her taking drastic actions while her husband was gone. There are many religious symbols and actions taken by "Mother" within the story. Through the story Sarah moved from a feeling of servitude to her husband, to a feeling that she was in servitude to the Lords will and this led her, in the end, to hold power over her husband.
The religious overtones start with the title of the story, "The Revolt of 'Mother.'" The name 'Mother' in many stories is used to relate to a divine or spiritual woman. It could be a direct reference to Mother Mary, but in the context of this story it is just meant to signify her clarity with what the Lord wants her to do. The word 'Revolt' also has religious significance when related with that use of 'Mother'. The revolt that 'Mother' takes is a religious one because it is going against her husband and town's beliefs, which are both the same. This becomes clear in the part of the story when the minister comes to talk to Sarah about what she has done.
When the minister came to see Sarah on Friday after she had moved into the barn she was described as having a "saintly expression of her face"(529). With that, and the fact that she acts so rude to him, especially since he's a minister, shows that she does believe she is right under the Lords will and he is not. The author also implies this by the name she gives to the minister, Mr. Hersey. His name sounds just like the word heresy and is spelled very similar. This is another indication that, in fact, the minister is going against the Lords own will and Sarah is not. The narrator has also described the minister as being " a sickly man" and that, "he had scourge himself up to some of his pastoral duties as relentlessly as a Catholic ascetic"(530). This seems harsh at first but it is just conveying the ignorance of the minister. In the times of this story the town would have to be Protestant or maybe even Puritan, but definitely not Catholic because it is set in early New England times and for the simple fact that he is a minister with a wife. The fact that he is referred to as a "Catholic ascetic"(530) shows that he is not believer in the scriptures as the Protestants are, but a conformist to the Catholic Church and not an interpreter of the Lords will. Sarah, on the other hand, is an interpreter of the Lords will.
Sarah comes to the conclusion that she is doing the Lords will when she declared the new maxim for her self. She now believed that "Unsolicited opportunities are the guideposts of the Lord to the new roads of life"(528). She knows that this is an unsolicited opportunity because she had nothing to do with Hiram sending notice of a good horse to father. It is also known that Sarah believes she is doing by the Lords will because it is a providence to her; which is taken as her having divine foresight. This foresight comes from her being a new spirit.
The sense that she is a new spirit is implied when she states, "I've let the fire go out"(528). Even though she is talking about the stove, it is taken that it is a fire inside of her. The fire, which is a means of destruction and chaos, was burning up her soul. And now that it was out a new spirit could take over. The new spirit is also seen by Nanny when she "tremble(s), as if it were a ghost"(528). This ghost that she feels is representative of the new spirit that has embodied mother. Because of this new feeling both Sammy and Nanny seem to become something of religious followers to her.
The children as religious followers to Sarah are first clearly seen through the observation that "There is a certain uncanny and superhuman quality about such a purely original undertakings as their mother's was to them"(529). The superhuman quality is the divine foresight that mother has. And because of this divine sense the children become her followers. Also the part where "Nanny and Sammy kept close to her heels"(530) is a direct indication that they are following and doing what she says. This may seem like gibberish and impertinent to the thesis, except for the fact that in order for mother to move from a servitude to the father, to that of the Lords will she needs to have followers. She needs them in order to verify what she is doing is right. It is clearly seen through the way the Adoniram talks and dismisses Sarah in the beginning of the story that she is submissive to him and has no power in the family. But in the end without the children's conforming to what mother is doing, she would have never had the power to move their belongings to the new barn. Even though at first the points of the children may have seemed to be an aspect which was a side bar to the thesis, it is in fact the main reason mother was able to start the revolt.
By the end of the story Adoniram is not in power. This aspect is shown through how Father lacked the power to even remove his jacket, even though he is described as having a "sturdily healthy"(531) frame. He is also not referred to as father, but as an old man. Because old people are usually represented as being weaker and more needing of help, Father takes on the position of lesser power in the family. So because Sarah moved from Adoniram's servitude to the Lords, father falls to a lesser power. It is in this position that he gives into his wife and builds windows and partitions as she asks.
In the end Sarah has moved from servitude to a position of power in the family. And Adoniram has fallen from his position of not listening to what Sarah wants to one of submission to her needs. But there hasn't been sufficient foundation laid by Sarah to foreshadow that it will stay this way forever. First because the majority of the revolt took place when Adoniram was absent, so it was easier for her to make this transition. But mainly because as the name implies this was only a revolt. Just because you won a revolt doesn't mean you've won the war.
