T stands for Together

-

 A favorite recent read

Loved this book
and the message 
Wedge brush watercolor, pointed pen 
and a new bookmark
Making my practice practical

Making raviolis together
It all started with the flour and a kitchen aid attachment.
Little pillows 

Ready to boil and voila 

Sausage and ricotta stuffed raviolis
And sparkling cucumber water


Watercolor practice, good books, good food and family…time to celebrate.

    I've never tried to make ravioli. They look and sound delicious! And that's a new title for me. Off to check it out.

    Murthy is an excellent choice to read. He is brilliant and peace loving. That's a lovely bookmark, too.

    I have a friend who has a machine that makes and cuts the ravioli squares. Yours look absolutely yummy. Your choice of cucumber water is wonderful, too.

    Thanks for sharing your incredible book choice, your beautiful bookmark, your raviolis, and your cucumber water with us for T this Tuesday. At least it's still Tuesday in my world.

    Your ravioli looks delicious. I haven't made pasta in decades and should try it again. A kitchen-aid attachment sounds like the trick. Hope it was a fun T day.

T stands for Time together...and words on wednesday

T stands for time together with my sister in one of our favorite neighborhood bistros. Cibo Cibo translates to uncomplicated, unpretentious casual food and drink, which describes our weekly get together perfectly. Raspberry lemonade prosecco and bruschetta I love these moments, a great chance to catch up and talk about all sorts of fun things. We both love fashion, reading, psychology, classic movies, and family.  I have been reading Writing with Quiet Hands. The book is inspirational, full of wonderful tips and quotes, and a great book for self reflection. I have been thinking about what I like to read, and consequently my voice in writing. I have also been thinking about word choice. I find haiku really challenging, but when I read it, I think it can be simple and beautiful. Part of my transformation challenge is to bring poetry into the moment. Here's my haiku for today's special moment with Nish. Camaraderie Sisters, memories Reminiscing and laughing em...

T stands for Traditions

Nothing says traditions like a holiday...and in our house Birthdays have always been treated like holidays! We hold firmly to the belief that if there is a day you are ever going to celebrate, it's the day you were born. Luckily for Fi, her birthday is October 8, which coincides with Columbus day this year, extending the Birthday to Birthday weekend. We lined up all kinds of special treats, starting with a Half Marathon on Saturday, if you can call that a treat..followed up with  some other birthday specials, breakfast out at our favorite diner,  presents, bookstore coffee and browse around,  made to order breakfasts and dinners,  chocolate cake (yum!) and a wind down with one of our favorite hobbies on Monday... painting Halloween Vignette Years ago, I painted unfinished wood and sold it at craft fairs. Fi loved to go with me to purchase supplies and attend craft shows looking for ideas.  Although it has been a long time since I have participated in a craf...

T stands for...try it.. a little too late

well, I will try to try it...so a few new techniques.. sunflowers. I painted the sunflower in watercolors, then cut it out.  I colored the backround using some gelatos which I have seen Jo use. I will need to play around with the gelatos to see if I can get the vibrant colors  that I have seen on her pages.   Try it on Tuesday had a friends challenge, so  I chose this quote.                  True friends are like bright sunflowers that never fade away over distance and time. -M.W. Johnstone Even though, the challenge was over before I had a chance to create something it was still good inspiration.  While I was out for my walk, I saw this sign, which struck me as a little sad.. I need friends.. but it also inspired me to reach out to people, and be a little friendlier to everyone I meet.  Sunshine always makes me a little happier, and the late warm weather made a beach day possible.  On...
