Tennessee

Went on a trip to Tennessee about a month ago. It was so refreshing to experience spring. Here in Florida, we basically live in varying degrees of summer so an actual season in such a beautiful place was wonderful to see :) And so many creeks everywhere, my favorite!

The second to last photo is the tornado shelter on my Grandfathers property. It is a concrete shelter dug into the side of a hill, with space enough inside for a cot and a chair. It would make the best clubhouse for a kid.

New Wood

Three new designs for the shop :)

Garden

Some pictures of my garden, taken about 2 weeks ago. I am now noticing how much it has grown since then and become a lot wilder, partly because I haven't been working in it. We eat from it daily :)

Morning Dew

Some photos from a beautiful dewy morning this week. I did a quick pickling on the jalapenos from last week and they came out delicious. We put them in burritos, burgers and lots more. I am going to start posting weekly so thanks if you have hung around this long :)

Valentine's Day

 Good Morning! And Happy Valentine's Day. A new Mr. & Mrs. Mook, some jalapenos I will be pickling later and the clothespin Valentines my little guy made for his class 3 years ago. This year he opted for store-bought and for me to make fresh cinnamon rolls for the class instead.

Cat and Dog

 I am having some computer monitor problems around here (I'm working on an temporary CRT right now) so I thought I'd post some cute animal pictures in the meantime. My mom's new puppy, Jackson and my cat Herman. He looks kind of mean in the last picture, but he is so sweet and just telling me politely that he would like some food now ;)

2013

 Some sparklers, lit at midnight on New Years Eve. We spent the days following lounging around, hanging out a bit with family and friends. I am hoping it sets the tone for the rest of the year.

Recently watched Bones Brigade, LOVED IT.

Babble listed me in their Top 50 Etsy Parents a few months back, pretty cool :)
