Sunday, January 22, 2017. I stopped writing cause I got busy, I forgot, Pop got sicker. I had an audience of 1. Or maybe it just seemed not helpful.

Woodcarving, Needlework and other Crafts. I hope to update often so please come again. Get comfortable and COME ON IN.

Making our point in craft and design. As if I have ever made a hotcake in my life. Until I got a little sidetracked with some continued ed classes at NYC and one of my favorite out-of-town visitors, Veronica. The fabric is Avian Therapy in Sorbet, Tufted Tweets, by Laurie Wisbrun.

Fant denne oppskriften i et ukeblad for mange år siden. De minner meg om sirupssnipper, men er mye enklere å lage. Disse kakene er som regel mannfolkene sin favoritt. Min farfar var konditor og han lagde mange gode kaker. Kakemennene er en oppskrift som kommer fra han. I vår familie feires ikke jul uten kakemenn som er bakt etter oppskriften til min farfar.

Perspective is such a powerful thing. Whether we see our glass half full, or half empty, can really effect how we taste it as sweet, or bitter. Of being present can either feel like a joy to unwrap. To be honest, my heart tends to flip flop to both extremes. in any given five minutes. Gratitude is a real perspective changer.
