Despite being busy. . . there was of course time for art. . . I learnt a new technique this week... moved on a bit from sketching and learnt some dry brushing. So I have been experimenting with that, as well as working on last week's pic.
Despite the stress of the week, I seem to have rediscovered my love for baking. . . art class were treated, and then I had a fun weekend with friends popping in to say hi or play games for hours . . . I do think a rule needs to be established, "if you are in someone's home you may not beat them in their own games...especially if they taught you how to play the game." I am just saying!!!!
Also if the cupcakes stick to the wrapper and fall apart, throw the pieces in a bowl and smother in chocolate ganache. . . home made of course....also added some Marshmallow Fluff [not home made this time].... it was decadent and yummy. . . and a great time with friends, even if some of them beat me at my own game....often!
Please notice i have a kettle....some super delightful friendie bought it for me as a housewarming gift....woohoo....makes life so much easier.
Little by little am adding in some plant life to my patio....so glad most of my plants survived being transplanted....now may they thrive....can't wait till its all set and finished and i can just relax out there....just me and the millions of mosquitoes.....man this place is swarming!!!
so that is a bit of randomness and fun, despite a stressful week . . . i must be honest i end this week and i feel like i have hope again. I am amazed at the goodness of God, so often He is so busy behind the scenes that we miss it....but this weekend [especially] my eyes have been opened.....more on that in blogs to come.....
I know its an old song but this song has really been in my mind and my heart this week . . . its such a beautiful song, and we are so privileged to have his love, and be in his heart. simply click on the title below to go to the link....
I am obviously a very wordy person.... more of a novelist than a blogger. . . sometimes we have a truth in our hearts and then we are chatting with a friend and then sum it up perfectly in a simple sentence that is so deeply profound it could change the course of your life....so i leave you with a quote my friend shared with me this weekend. So profound i made them say it twice and then email it to me....
