swirl


6x6

Wow, I can't believe it.  I haven't put a brush to any surface since July.  JULY!  How in the world did that happen...  Well, it is good to be back.  Great even.  I can't really go beyond great, because the painting itself wasn't so great.  It is very apparent that I am out of practice.  And I have to admit, I never really took too much stock in the whole you have to paint every day to keep limber thing.  But maybe that's because I WAS painting every day.  Or almost every day.  Or once a week, maybe...  In any case, I was painting quite a bit more frequently than ten months.  Wow.  TEN MONTHS.  I still can't believe it...

So what have I been doing, you ask?  Well, even if you didn't ask, I'll tell you anyway.  I have been writing a cookbook.  

Random?  Yes.  

But not so much if you think about it.  My son has life threatening allergies, and after having to cook three meals a day, every day, I have developed several tricks of the trade I guess you can say.  All while amassing a nice little collection of recipes...  If this interests you, please check out my other blog, mama makes from scratch (mamamakesfromscratch.blogspot.com).  It has recipes, crafts, and really bloggy type stuff....  

I have also been making bears.  Teddy bears.  That fit in the palm of your hand...  

Random, yes.
