Last year, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based upon that …
Can I just tell you how weird it is to be writing 2025? I remember, when I was a kid, figuring out how old I was going to be in the year 2000. The answer was ancient, of course! Now, it seems like Y2K and all of that business was a lifetime ago. I suppose, …
Christmas happenings… I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. A few years ago, we (meaning I) decided to celebrate Christmas dinner in a less formal way (meaning not turkey or ham).

It’s sad to think how happy that makes him. I keep thinking back to last Christmas when he was still on two feet. …
I baked my first batch of Christmas cookies today…peanut butter blossoms. I’d counted the number of cookies and made sure I had that same number of chocolate kisses unwrapped. I like to have everything prepped when I cook and bake. Anyway, Nigel came into the kitchen, and I heard some scritchety scratch noise. I turned …

Since I retired almost thirteen years ago, I’ve been a bit lost. Blogging has helped so much with my aimlessness, but I really do miss teaching. I get some of that every spring when I do a mini retreat at my church and when I teach a class for special needs adults. But, I yearn …
