Here comes February Days are getting longer but not any warmer. We still have a few more months of winter to get through before that happens. This week involved more snow, mixed media and fighting the flu. You can see all photos here. How did you spend your week?
365 Project 2014 – week 3
Tea & Art If you look at these pictures every week and think, “Geez I wish I could see this one (or that one) in full”. Well now you can, right here. This week I attended a mixed media workshop that got me excited about making art and a tea workshop that was overwhelmingly informative. We […]
Honest Food Tales – Chow and Chatter
