Week 132! We went to Winterlights last night, and it was even more beautiful than usual! We have had all that snow, and the lights reflecting and shining through the snow was amazing. If you want to see what it’s like, I wrote a post you can find here. Next year, I think I’ll get …
A new tour… I’m working on a new tour for the museum. This will be my inaugural VTS (Visual Thinking Strategies) tour (read more about that here). The tour won’t be pure VTS but a hybrid tour. That means I can and will use the three questions central to VTS, but I will also give …
Style Imitating Art… Welcome to Style Imitating Art which comes from Salazar, Shelbee, and me. You can think of this series as fashion meets art museum! SIA challenges people to find inspiration in different art works, create looks based upon that art work, and share them with the curator for that piece. Shelbee is this week’s curator …
Week 132! Happy Thanksgiving to those of you who are in the States! Are you in a turkey coma right now? For the last several years, we have bought a smoked turkey from a restaurant. It’s delicious, and the guesswork of cooking a turkey is gone. As per usual, I messed up on the few …

Recently, Erin, from Still Life, With Cracker Crumbs, began a new series. And, it’s exactly what the title says. It’s a post about soup and a story. Now, you and I all know, I am not a cook. So, my recipe for soup is going to be very easy. I haven’t made it in years …
Week 131! It has been nice and rainy here in Central Indiana. I love a rainy day (did you sing that in your head)! The temperatures are cool so that makes for the perfect stay inside and be cozy kinda day. And, that’s pretty much what we’ve been doing. I don’t know how long the …
Life lately… Yes, I’m going to say it…can you believe Thanksgiving is next week in the US? I am sitting here looking at all my pumpkins and wondering if I could just put little Santa hats on them and call it Christmas. What do you think? If you’ve been around, you know I’ve been having …
I have a confession to make. I had this dress in mind for a challenge, but I didn’t know I would find the absolute perfect piece for it! I was actually looking for a Fauvist artist and found The Turning Road. I think I got really lucky because, if you recall, I used ChatGPT to …
