Happy Halloween!

Weekend Moments

 

 

 

 

 

 

family time, lots of good food, pancakes, chili, pie, omelets, looking through photos, 

coerced my gorgeous sister into modeling for me - more to come on that, lots of driving and travel, 

home and bao plus left over car food

I like it!

Coffee Joulies work with your coffee to achieve two goals. First, they absorb extra thermal energy in your coffee when it’s served too hot, cooling it down to a drinkable temperature three times faster than normal. Next, they release that stored energy back into your coffee keeping it in the right temperature range twice as long.

This may solve my problem of burning my tongue every time I drink something hot.

Every time, every single time.

Inspiration

 

 

 I am really loving these snowflake photographs.

They are really beautiful.

I got some books at the library.

Also, take a look at this on the PBS site.

Wrappings

I love putting together and wrapping up orders.

So much fun!

Weekend Moments

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

tea and muffins and lots more tea, sitting outside with hot coffee and treats while we still can, willow branches, lots of jewelry work, new things coming soon, children's book work, avocados, tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, wheat berries, squash, more tea and knitting, eclairs that we have become obsessed with, we used to get one to split, now we have moved on to 1 each, next time I might get ten, so good

I like it!

 

R.S. Posnak

 

Ever notice how we apply human judgments to our animal friends? Are scavengers "bad"? Are cute fluffy herbivores "good"? This poster by R.S. Posnak raises the subject of anthropomorphism in a humorous and aesthetically pleasing way. 

 

These are awesome!

I ordered this for Ben as a surprise.

 It came from China.

It took a long time to come.

 He had to put it together

 And then this happened.

I love it!

My Fall Necklace

I have been wearing my cone necklace.

I think it is a good fall necklace.
