Even though it was overcast and rainy most of the time, we still enjoyed Lake Superior.

Once again, I ate the first of them before even thinking of taking a photo.

I love my little container garden. It’s so awesome to just step outside to collect fresh herbs for my recipes.

Next year I hope to have a small garden next to our shed. Then I can try growing new veggies.

My baby lost her first baby tooth…

It was time to decorate the pre-made satin pillow I had bought specifically for this purpose years ago…when my 1st baby lost his first tooth.

NOTE: A pocket pillow hanging on the doorknob makes it much easier for the Toothfairy to do her job.

I let my girl pick out all the decorations…she seems to have a pretty good sense of color. Although sometimes you’d never know it by the outfits she puts together. Good grief!!


I felt the urge to paint something. The blue and orange combo is something I’m loving a lot more lately.

The texture is dressmakers pattern paper randomly set into the still wet gesso. I love texture!


at least during the PGA….

At least not over your own house. The Goodyear blimp was on it’s way to the PGA Championship at Hazeltine National…just a few miles down the road from me.

I haven’t had an celebrity sightings but I don’t get out much and definitely not to the high end places that those folks would be visiting.

I really wanted to do another lesson for the AB101 class I took online. It was over long ago but I have yet to finish. Of course my muse didn’t cooperate with me today and this is the spread that came out. It incorporated NONE, ZIP, ZERO of the lessons..oh well. I never was much of a rule follower.

I decided to only glue down one side of each butterfly so they’d have a dimensional quality. Hopefully they’ll still pop up after being smashed in the book over time.
