At the Mad Hatter Tea
I finally got my photos edited and uploaded from the Mad Hatter tea party last weekend. You can see them at my photo blog, though I’ll post a couple of favorites here. Many of the photos are either of me or of my friend’s daughter, mostly because I didn’t take many photos of the actual…

Mad Hatter Tea
This is my placeholder. I had every intention of writing about the Tea Party, but time got away from me and now I’m tired and want to go to bed. So you get a sneak peek for tomorrow. Or whenever. That is my makeup and my hat. I got some much better photos (relatively speaking)…

Finding Art in the Everyday: week 15 of 2012 in pictures
This week has been filled with art in surprising places. This first picture from Monday was hanging in a “gallery” at one of the local frozen yogurt shops, where about 25 drawings by 4 and 5 year old kids were featured. This one was far and away the best, as it depicts an alien family…

Rainbow cupcakes
Tonight I baked rainbow cupcakes for the tea party tomorrow. It’s a Mad Hatter tea party and what better thing than crazy, mixed up cupcakes for such a thing? Here they are. And a close view of the inside. This one didn’t have much pink in it, but some of them do. It just depends…

Easter week and spring-time things: week 14 of 2012 in pictures
Even though it’s not quite a dramatic shift here the way it is on the mainland, there are definitely signs that it’s springtime, from Easter traditions to flowers that will bloom on schedule no matter where they are planted.

Not much happens and then everything at once: week 11 of 2012
Irony: I last posted a 365 entry on the day I took this photo… and I took this photo because as I went to bed I realized I’d forgotten to take a photo for the day, even though I’d just uploaded a bunch of them. So I give you: My Bedside Table on Monday, March…

Saint Pat’s Day rewind
So, four years ago J and I were in Ireland for Saint Patrick’s Day. It is a religious holiday. And then at noon, they party. It reminds me somewhat of Mardi Gras, in that all the little towns and villages and things have their own parades the weekend before the day itself, with all of…
