I was Creative!!!




I've been working on a mural for my Married Boo and Son In Boo's niece for quite some time. The mural was done on material close to vinyl but done so that it can be easily shipped (they live in Northern California). They also have the choice of using wallpaper glue and putting it directly on the wall, or framing it or even hanging it.

Aspen's mommy wanted fairies and I hope that she likes it.

By the way, I have a huge hint of something to come in the form of a giveaway...a mural done by me...so stay tuned!

Were you creative today?

So sweet Simone, and happy colors. I was creative in that I finalized my Thanksgiving menu plans and did the grocery shopping.

I had been procrastinating on the menu and it was fun to re-discover all my favorite recipes. I love to cook!

wow...just wow...it's beautiful!

My "creativity" consisted of doing two rows on my sister's soon to be born baby's blanket...which means that at this rate the child will get it on her High School graduation!

Holy Crow-ly, Simone! It's darling! You did a bang-up job and I'm certain it will be enjoyed by the little one for years to come!

Was I creative? Only if creative is defined as spending quality time with my husband, spending money and then spending an enjoyable evening with my sister. ;)

Have you ever heard of shelf milk? If you have...have you ever used it in recipes?

I have some ideas brewing in my mind. What I'm lacking is gumption (how's that for an old-fashioned word?)!

That mural is gorgeous! I think you should consider an Etsy shop to market your artwork! Yes. I'm serious.

My Bucket List

My twin sis and I have bucket lists. The funny thing is that they aren't literally on paper. They are in our heads. For instance, my Nay Nay called me and said, "You won 't believe what I did!  I got big girl shoes…for my bucket list." "Really? Big girl shoes?" I asked. I knew exactly what she meant. When we were born, and back in the day when braces could or should be recommended for feet that in-toed, we weren't given that joy. As a result, walking in high heels can often be a challenge. My Nay Nay decided that she was going to cross off one thing on that bucket list and found a deal of 10 pairs of heels. (Not one but 10. She went for the gusto.) Each day, she practiced walking in her big girl shoes until the moment finally came and she ROCKED those heels! Together we have decided that we WILL cross off stuff on our growing bucket lists. Some of those things are on both of our lists while others are our very own "personal" bucket lists...
