Beauty & Meaning in a Creative Life.

Right here you can sign up to receive emails about anything I am doing and what is on my mind! I am usually perusing all sorts of food endeavors and will include links to recipes and food journals. Sometime I have other great tips and share my journey in life as an entrepreneur and mom of two. What ever the topic you can be sure that if I send it- there's a good point to it. I hate inbox clutter too!

Why do I love kids art? See.
21 years. Some bonds cannot be broken.
21 years tonight since. Love is not a straight line from point A to point B.
Returning to a relationship after heartbreak I was holding back to insulate myself from hurt again, I think it natural. There are no guarantees in life regardless. Unless I choose to be vulnerable I won’t have any of the rewards and joys of togetherness.
Miss you Mom. Happy Thanksgiving. We made apple pies but nowhere near as good as yours.
My school art project. Thank you to all classes!
Me and my girl.

Turning out the dough.
I had this dream, a jewelry dream for myself for many years. Not any different than a painting that is trying to bust out. But I always put it off. You can’t buy this ring anywhere. Leah from @derrico_jewelry and I made this ring together. We went through six waxes and many discoveries together as the vision became its own design. You have to listen to and respond to what you are making rather than make what you think. Go to D’errico Jewelers. Leah is patient, kind, focused and caring. She’s a beautiful woman to work with. She’s a magician at helping see what is in your mind’s eye. I love this ring. It fits like a glove, I stared at it the whole way home. It was a special king of distracted driving! I still can’t stop looking at my hand. I never want to take it off! Don’t wait to manifest your jewelry dreams. Don’t put yourself last. My mother had many unfulfilled dreams she never acted on. Now her time here is over. Be happy. Do it.
When your teen has turkey for breakfast.
Just butterflied a turkey at 5am on a snow delay to a turkey I brined on a work night. These are my super powers. I don’t have the feast at home so I miss my own cooking. Tips: bring the bird to room temp before the oven! Or you’ll be dry. Also put the legs in back of the oven to protect the breast. Or you’ll be dry! Yes my photo is backwards right now. Laying the bird out like this creates even cooking and cuts the time in half. The brine magic also helps with that. I love food.
Maybe you are a pearl. One by one time passes and I can only concentrate on each one at a time. Mindfulness.
To me these are like honey on a string. Today Citrine from strand to string. I hope if you are local you can visit on 12/15 to claim the stones which speak to you the most.
