http://artfulbitsandbytes.blogspot.com/2015_12_01_archive.html

Sunday, December 27, 2015. Banana Foster at Brennan's Restaurant in New Orleans. What I did on my Christmas Vacation. OK, I know it is a cliche elementary school writing assignment title, right? This could alternately be called my Post-Christmas Prattle -But Wow! Eleven days vacation -you would think I'd have time to do everything I needed/wanted to do. You'd be wrong. Not so. Oh very not so, but it was a great trip. Chris Roberts-Antieau's Fabric Creations. Need I say more! New Orleans Christmas 2015.

Friday, August 5, 2016. Just A Blogg'n on this Fine Fine Day! What a wonderful morning -lazy and long, my very favorite kind! I've got a bacon and rolls cooking so it smells divine in my little townhouse. Very homey and comforting. Goodness, don't smells just take you places. I remember camping with my family while growing up; breakfast cooked outside on a small Coleman camp stove -mmmmm! Why is it that eating outside makes food taste so much better? Oh and to throw an totally unrelated item in the mix -...

I should light candles more often, wear beautiful caftans in the evening, and send letters to those I love. Thank you God for this marvelous place -for my amazing life! Help me to live it fully, passionately, joyfully! Cover of my latest "store bought" journal. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Monday, May 16, 2016. This past weekend, my amazing daughter, Autumn married Matt Brasher in a beautiful outdoor ceremony at my brother David's house in Nashville! What a joyful occasion! Here is a very quick wedding recap with a few photos (just phone snapshots -I can't wait to see the real one's from the photographers) Be prepared, you know I'm going to be sharing more. First off, this was a major DIY deal but everything came together perfectly! I didn't take many pics but take my word, WOW -just wow!

Let's see, on the arts side, I am doing Julia Cameron's "The Artist's Way". I started an on-line group, "Exploring The Artist's Way" to go through it with (can you say accountability) There is about 60 participants, of course realistically I'm sure much fewer will stick with it. It has been interesting. I'm going to try and be...
