Everyday Living
A How-To-Newsletter
Editor's Corner
Greetings and welcome to our special Spring edition. I know most of you are getting ready to do a little cleaning and even begin creating new items for around the home. As luck would have it we finally were able to meet with our founder and expert consultant, Athena. In this issue we sit down with the goddess of reason, intelligence, arts and literature and get to know a little bit about her. We learned that her father is none other than Zeus himself and her mother was Metis. We also learned that Hades and Poseidon are her uncles and Hestia is her aunt. Talk about a family tree. During our interview she was fierce in her answers and was brave enough to share stories with us. She was tall, strong and very graceful when she walked into the room. She had beautiful gray-eyes. So hope you enjoy this edition.
Athena
As you can see our founder and expert journalist is as beautiful as every says.

Gift to a new city
This is her holy tree which is an olive tree. Interesting story she shared. She gave this to a new city who was looking for a god to watch over and protect them. Unfortunately, her uncle, Poseidon, was also trying to win the city over. It was this impressive gift that she gave that truly one them over when she informed them the river her uncle gave them was not fit to drink.

We heard she was a great inventor as well. She shared with us one of her major inventions was the bridle which helped humans tame horses. She also invented the flute, chariot, rake and plow.
