alex made some ginger soda! it's amazing.
and i got lost in this little memento from our wedding. :)
I made a few little stamps today, a la Geninne. (By the way, her new book--totally on the birthday list. Feel free to consult Mr. Alex G. Kerr for details.) And a la me! And also, a la some mockingbird feathers from our yard. If you forgot from the last post, we have the best yard ever. OH, and yesterday the mockingbirds were totally eating the suet. Internet advertising. New believer. Personal story. |
The tools! I'm happy to say that I'm functioning under a new philosophy: use the art stuff I have to make...art. As in, don't let it OR my creativity pile up. I like it so far. :) |
4. The softest, most wonderful blueberry leaves you could ever touch. |
5. A mostly-dead rose bush that still made me two roses this week. Of course I plucked them right off and they're in the house. :) Looks crappy, ... well it pretty much is crappy, but that's okay. |
6. Some happy zinnias! (Esther Albright!) No blooms yet, but look how they're growing! |
7. Morning glories that have just found the fence. Thigmotropism, anyone? (Elizabeth Hildreth, Esther Albright) |
:) |
9. The last little geranium petal after the storm whipped the rest of them off. Nice green, though. Who's complaining? |
10. And finally, just enough grass to keep a man happy on a Sunday afternoon. :) As long as he doesn't bonk his head on the suet trap. Ew. |
We went to food trucks with Ben and Jordyn! Amazing! End with gelato and fancy pops for a flava burst o' joy! |
We got some goodies today at the Wholesome Earth place in Nuggetville. The soap is a ridiculously gorgeous, loud spearmint. Judy, it would probably make you gag, you don't have to smell it. I love it. Plus, check out the swirls! We also found some peanut butter powder that you mix with water. Jordyn was looking for it the other day and couldn't find it. It's pretty good. Less sweet, more salty, nice texture. Overall yum. Also, those are sprouts in the jar. Specifically, alfalfa, mung beans, broccoli, radish, and something else. Alex put them in a jar and rinses them twice a day. Today, we ate them in our salad, woohoo! Cool beans. (haha. like mung beans. ha. yeah.) |
