Full moon at dawn

Doodling sculpturewise

Fantastic winter light

The light reflecting off the back lake this morning was nearly blinding, beautiful, but blinding.

Summer thoughts

On the wiki-how site, they have a make your own bikini out of an old t-shirt project. This intrigued me slightly (less so when reading at the bottom of the directions it suggested not getting it wet). This linked onto a suggestion about waxing. After reading step 4, I have decided to just wear long pants at the beach from here on out...
"Remember, when the day comes to go out swimming look to see if you have bruises on your inner thighs from when you waxed. If so, then cover them up with water-proof foundation. Be confident and stand up straight. And most importantly, have fun."
Oh yeah right, have fun while running about with a bruised crotch. I can't wait!

Baby, it's cold

Hidden man

 

New to me

10+ year old song that missed me the first time around. Kinda like it though....

None for Erns

Ha! Ernie had nothing but disdain for the foul snack...

Whatever happened to Mr. Ed?

Curt picked up some hide treats for Clovis. Yuck, yuck, yuck. The toothless wonder couldn't even eat one until I'd boiled to soften it for a few minutes (did I mention yuck).
I had to hold it for him too because he was ready to just swallow it down in one stringy piece. I'm going to wash my hands and the sofa throw in bleach now.

Drumsticks and Arrgggggggggghhhhhh

Okay, I'm rusted out. Orlando suggests daily drawing. So, figure I'm going to try and get back to it. First day in - not looking good:
My original leg vs. the first drawn attempt - ouch!

Salt plate

Yesterday the Himalayan salt plate that I ordered as a gift for Mr. arrived. Looking forward to seeing what creative recipes he comes up with.

Healthy Mrs.

Maybe not so healthy for me. I could have had a salad, but I opted instead for 2 pieces of baguette with olive oil, garlic, hot pepper flakes, honey and brie cheese.

Healthy Mr.

So, Mr. was sick for most of last December. He is trying to regain strength and health. To this end, he has been eating lot's of nutritious stuff and seriously limited the chip/ice cream/burger intake.
Tonight he's making us a sort of veg stirfry with rice. Yum!

Songs to quicken the pulse

Mr. got us a zune with a little docking/speaker set a while ago. We put on a bunch of random stuff when we first got it & now I use it for my all-too-short workouts on the elliptical (usually only half an hour and then often only when we can't get out for a decent walk).
Since it is winter and actually getting rather cold for our usual 7am walks, I want to encourage myself & Mr to use the machine more. Thus, trying to compile a list of music with a fairly standard/steady/rapid beat to put on our little player.
A lot of the guilty pleasures of my youth seem to work well, but a gal can only take so much Megadeth , Ramones, Pixies, etc.
Any suggestions out there?

Mum & Midian

Every time Mum comes to visit, I seem to get a version of this photo. It's just way too cute how they snuggle...
