plant tubs, covered for the winter The garden is finished for the year, which is a shame because it’s been a lot of fun. We had the last of our lettuce just a few days ago. It was surviving nicely due to the lack of frost, though it was hardly growing anymore, it’s too cold now. I’m surprised it has ...
I’m grateful for curiosity (at least most days) Why are the sunflower stems pokey? Why can’t I eat these sunflower seeds? Why are we walking home? (well so you can ask more questions of course!) Occasionally the why’s are replaced by the did you knows. Did you know I promises Mrs. Robb a puppy for h ...
This was "End of August" with a purple background. It had been bothering me for a long time, so I jumped in and changed things around. I think I like it better now. I have two commissions on the dock that I have made a priority to attend to. No more commissions! (Well, never say never). They are so ...
Rachel Courteau was a prostitute in Arles, France in the late 19th century and in a chance encounter, she met Vincent van Gogh, thus beginning a two year relationship with him.

When I was at the General Store Cafe's Garden Party I brought my camera along to document the new space. The details of this party were so pretty! I wish there was a way to describe how good the food was too... the cupcakes were literally the best I have ever tasted! Blossom in Pittsboro, NC was the ...
I love colors and till a few years ago I’ve usually considered kinda ridiculous to take pictures in Black and White… unless there is a specific will, for example: -”I want to make the picture look old” - “I want to play with editing photos program” - “I want to see how it looks like”, etc… I found p ...
Red roses, beautiful orchids, and baby’s breath might be what first comes to mind when you picture a wedding, but these are not by far your only flower choices. If you’re having a more rusty country-themed wedding, one of the most fun flower options is the sunflower. Sunflowers can look great in man ...
There are a lot of “try before you buy” video editors out there. Some allow you to publish a video without blurbs on the final product which tell the whole world who they are. Others do it, which is annoying, but they can be removed with some editing. Some programs are fairly intuitive – which [...]
I keep waiting for fall to appear here. I thought that I had a peek at it last week, when the low temperature was about 42° for a couple of mornings. But here it was in the 90’s today, and it’s November 3! Arghh! So I am looking around the house for some way to make [...]
