"I started photographing my domestic world and writing not just about what I had made,
but why I made it, examining the thoughts that accompany creativity and the act of making."

Pleasant Pastimes


The other day I snapped a photo of Shelby Dog enjoying a patch of sunshine .


When she realized I was taking her picture she began to pose.



First a grin . . .


then a spectacular smile!!!


This morning I woke to find another flurry of snow



had briefly stopped


to visit on its way to Mt. Hood .


So I crocheted a new cup cozy


with some of the *designer* yarn I spun at the two
spinning workshops I attended several weeks ago.

Then I made a cup of coffee with vanilla almond milk
and began to plan what to share with you today

and wonder . . .
how you spent  2 . 29 . 2012 ?

    1. I enjoy reading about your days, Anne, and am glad you are having some nice weather. I just read through some more of your past posts and was so impressed with your Sugarcraft efforts! The Christmas Cake was amazing!!! Have you ever visited Tattershall Castle?
