			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet &#8220;The Cookie Lady.&#8221; Hair as red as my best friend Jenny&#8217;s face when we used to talk about the boys she loved in 6th grade. A rip in her matching red dress that ever-so-delicately held itself together on her right bosom.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Cookie Lady.&#8221;</p>
<p>Speaking in a tone that sounded like she was going to rip someone&#8217;s face off if they continued to breathe at that irrational and inappropriate level, but saying words that couldn&#8217;t contradict the sentiment more.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Cookie Lady.&#8221;</p>
<p>A woman who tracks the people who do nice things for her and spends countless hours baking love into bars and cookies.</p>
<p>An inspirational character.</p>
<p>I would like to take a lesson from &#8220;The Cookie Lady.&#8221;</p>
<p>For my next MackEvent, I think we should all bake a box of cookies for someone who has done something nice for us and leave it, unsuspecting, on their doorstep.</p>
<p>Document yourself during the process and share it with me!</p>
<p>&#8220;The Cookie Lady.&#8221;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey all!!!</p>
<p>I know you must have thought that I dropped off the face of the earth because you have not heard from me in so long&#8230; but HOORAY! I am not dead! In fact, I am very much alive!<br />
And, I want to send out the next celebration event!!!</p>
<p>This week, I am trying to focus on joy!</p>
<p>Again, I seem to find myself getting totally stuck in the negative, and I forget how amazing and beautiful the world is! So this week, let&#8217;s try and collect joy. Collect moments that you find joyful and document them! Submit your photos to <a href="mailto:mackevents@allisonmack.com">mackevents@allisonmack.com</a>, or post your written responses or YouTube links here in this entry as a comment.</p>
<p><strong><em>Harness joy.</em></strong> Whether it is the sound of it or a picture or a movie, go out and seek joy!!</p>
<p>xoxo<br />
Allison</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey! Happy February!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s the month of love, or at least that&#8217;s what I equate February to, and so I think the Mack Event I would love to highlight is &#8220;Steal a kiss.&#8221;  Find a kiss, whatever that kiss is, and post it on my site!  I have seen some of the most amazing pictures of strangers kissing&#8230; I have come across some of the most beautiful lips that stained a napkin in a bar&#8230;  So steal a kiss!  Find one and post it!</p>
<p>Ciao, amore!</p>
<p>Allison</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A little late&#8211; sorry, guys.  Those of you who have a Juicy Peach calendar might have recognized I&#8217;m a little late announcing the next Mack Event!  Now, I&#8217;m playing a bit of catch up and will announce it: the next celebratory event is to write a haiku on your bathroom wall!   Remember writing haikus for your third grade poetry project?  I certainly do, and they always seemed so peaceful and serene.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;m trying to bring some of that peace and calm into my somewhat insane existence right now.  I thought, &#8220;Just focus on a haiku.&#8221;  It&#8217;s nice to have something so simple to focus my manic energy on, you know?  A simple 5-syllable line, then a 7-syllable line, then another 5-syllable line are all the poem requires!</p>
<p>So either write your own or someone else&#8217;s, but take a bit of time to enjoy the simplicity of this beautiful little poem.  Oh, and the whole bathroom part is just to keep things interesting&#8230; And also because I&#8217;m a little tired of reading about the horrors of capitalism and that Johnny loves Mary on the bathroom walls of my favorite restaurants&#8230; But since I can&#8217;t exactly encourage you all to deface public property by writing on public bathroom walls, I figured I would suggest writing it on your own wall. but the point really is just to write it.</p>
<p>OK!  Have fun, and photograph, scan, or just send in whatever you have written!  I&#8217;ll submit mine ASAP, but here is an example to let you know what the darn poems look like in the first place.</p>
<p>Ciao,</p>
<p>Allison</p>
<p>&#8220;Crossroads&#8221;<br />

<p>Crossroads Ascending<br />
Which possible path is right?<br />
Chosen path, Right path</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>HAPPY NEW YEAR! Welcome to 2008, a year of change, growth, inspiration and excitement! I am so jazzed about the prospects of this year that I could do a cartwheel! That, oddly enough, leads me to the next &#8220;MackEvent&#8221;! <img src='http://www.allisonmack.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Start the new year off right by doing a physical example of how you feel about the new year! In the Juicy Peach calendar I titled the event, &#8220;Do an acrobatic move in public.&#8221;<br />
Really what this means to me is to film, photograph, draw, or use whatever medium you want to show yourself physically manifesting the way you feel about the new year!</p>
<p>I wanna see how you are feeling about the next 12 months ahead! Show me what you got!</p>
<p>Ciao,<br />
Allison</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey, everyone! Thank you all so very much for the awesome pictures! It&#8217;s so, so cool to be able to see you the way you see me! I feel like I have such a better idea of who you all are! It was also so much fun to see the different and creative ways everyone expressed themselves through this project! I loved experiencing each of your individual expressions! OK, so now this week&#8217;s project is a little more personal and creative! I would love to see each of you draw a self portrait using one continuous line! That&#8217;s right! The challenge is to never let your pen leave the page! A la Picasso! Have fun! Here is Kristin&#8217;s and Chad&#8217;s. You can go ahead and email it to the same spot you did last time: mackevents@allisonmack.com. Have Fun! Oh! and if you wanna see the awesome drawings that everyone else sent in just click on either Chad or Kristin&#8217;s drawing and scroll through&#8230;..mine is in there as well! Enjoy!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My favorite season of the year is coming to a close, and Iâ€™m collecting as many of the precious leaves that have fallen as I possibly can.  Iâ€™m always overwhelmed by the natural beauty that surrounds us, and I think that the unbelievable fire that radiates out of the fall leaves is astounding!  So, let&#8217;s not let them disappear without taking the time to appreciate and document them.  Find a leaf you think is awesome and combine it with a person you love!</p>
