I've been featured...

Me? An artist? Oh, ok. I guess I'll give you that one. :)

My dear friend Jim has a lovely blog and I'm the latest feature artist!: Land of Slack

Thanks Jim!

So be sure to check it out. He's got a great collection of fantastic artist and some of their work.

And, inspired by that honor, I've added a couple quick things to my own website: www.myrrhmade.com

thankful for the ladies

I am so thankful for the Women's Tub Day at East Heaven. ($10 for as long as you like!)

Two of the same other ladies were there as the last time we went and I have to say there is something incredibly soothing about communal bathing with a group of wonderful women.

After was a low-key couple of hours with Joanna (all to myself!) and then joining in with others to help her celebrate her birthday. I didn't stay too long so that I could be sure to stay awake for my drive home but it was lovely to see some of the wonderful people she has collected around her.

They all plinked! - ginger-pearsauce

My first attempt at solo-canning was victorious!

I now am the proud owner of ten jars of ginger-pearsauce - applesauce only made with pears + a ginger kick for intrigue.

I got to hear ten, very satisfying "plink"s as the jars cooled. A sure sound of success. :)

Ben is HERE!!!!

My Dear Cousin Ben called a couple of weeks ago. After chatting for a minute I discovered that not only had he accepted a job and was moving to the area, but was moving to the very next town over.

He arrived last night, unpacked a bit into the bedroom upstairs and is off at his first day at his new job.

I am so excited to have him here. :)
