A balancing act. I better not drop anything. Sheba’s quick when it comes to food and she hears an oops!. #reading #snacking #annaquindlen #alternateside #rhubarbmuffin #taleswithfriendsDay 45 - Daisy Yellow ICAD 2019 - Wabi sabi - All caught up!

More catch up tomorrow. #dyicad2019 #icad2019 #direction #words #acrylics #taleswithfriendsDay 42 - Daisy Yellow ICAD 2019 Challenge - Key Chain - #dyicad2019 #icad2019 #keychain #words #acrylics #taleswithfriendsDay 41 - Daisy Yellow ICAD 2019 Challenge-Card Catalog- Sleeplessness lends to loosening creative juices or it leads to defective thinking. The dog kept me up most of the because of a huge thunderstorm. I’m not much functional except for painting index cards. A good day for catching up. #dyicad2019 #icad2019 #cardcatalog #words #acrylics #taleswithfriendsA gorgeous Saturday. Going out for my swim this morning I can’t help but look back to admire my flowers, garden and the lines of the house. I had put it all together. Coming home after, I spent an hour watering and weeding. Perhaps it was a hot day to bake but the sour cream was calling out its due date. Rhubarb and sour cream muffins with 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 white flour. Next batch will try 100% whole wheat. Sheba got a new batch of biscuits, too. We are now cooling off in the evening on the deck. #saturday #beautifulday #hot #flowers #garden #baking #rhubarbmuffins #coolingoff #taleswithfriendsMaking kimchi - cabbage, kale, carrots, daikon, green onions and spices. Good thing I have a food processor for shredding and grating. #makingkimchi #cabbage #kale #carrots #daikon #greenonions #spices #taleswithfriendsDay 40 - Daisy Yellow ICAD 2019 Challenge- Blueprint - My fingertips are bluish from making prints. I don’t seem to have well defined ones. They will never be able to identify me. I could make for a good thief! #dyicad2019 #icad2019 #blueprint #words #acrylics #taleswithfriends

BREATHING AND WRITING
Life and writing are akin to me at times. I struggle to get a letter on the page and taking a deep breath is difficult at times. If I don’t try, the page remains blank, empty of the stories hidden … Continue reading
STORYTELLING IN THE DESERT
There are many stories in the desert. Won’t you take a seat and have a listen? I come from a culture rich in superstition and ancestory whorship. We honour and worship the deities and ancestors by laying out food and … Continue reading

THE CHILL OF OUR DESERT
It’s a bit cold here in our desert but we are soothed by its stillness and quietness. Our hearts are gladdened by the brillance of the sun. It beckons Sheba and I out the door and down that yellow brick … Continue reading

LEST I BE MISUNDERSTOOD
Through this period of Lent I have been putting an effort to keep my own council. It is not an easy thing for I am a talker and I tend to speak my mind. Speaking my mind hasn’t really worked … Continue reading
