Bring on the Spring …
I have spring fever. I am so ready to do some things in the yard. I’ve been reading up and watching YouTube videos, and I think this year DH and I are finally ready to bring home some chickens! I’m so excited. But first, we’ll be converting an old shed into a coop for them. …
On The Mend …
Both physically and creatively – with baby steps! I must not have been successful at the dodging-and-weaving game with our swarm of flu/URI-crud patients last weekend in the E.R. … I’ve been fighting sinus pain/snot and body aches this week – the best way I know: Lots of vitamin C (orange juice), strong medicine (ummm, …
Mildly progressive …
Yep – I’ve been a mildly progressive BUM this week! I was helping DH with our pups, moving along stamp identification, making glass, cooking – oh, and catching the last rays of summer sunshine! [While Monday was cooler temps – so far we’re 5/5 days in the pool and I hope to add one more …

Minimal Adulting …
We got thru tax season 2019. It was a painful week, but we beat the deadline. We did ‘OK’ this year – we felt the tax law changes, but came out ‘winning’ … For whatever reason, this year’s tax prep was UNBELEVIABLY painful. I never wanted to miss a deadline as badly! So, it’s Friday …
They’re Done … Almost
I spent the better part of the week bringing the spoon rests thru to their final slump. All but three. This other one had air bubbles I didn’t like, so it’s in the baby kiln for a flip and fire, along with some murrini nibs. I hope to use the nibs (otherwise ‘useless’) in an …
Some cookin’…
Both in the kitchen and the studio … I made a vat of bone broth. I couldn’t help it. When I was at the grocery store, I stumbled on a package of chicken feet … CHICKEN FEET! And then I thought, ‘Well, why not?!?’ DH was a bit concerned – and kept taking pictures! …
