I like to try to use as much of my own graphics for these challenges. It doesn’t rain very often around here, and when it does, I can’t seem to get very good photos of the rain. I did however have some nice photos of rain drops on plants. So, I went from there, and […]

I made masks out of my blythe doll Hana and my little dog Koko, and put them on the other. It looks a bit creepy, but whatever: Koko thinks she is Queen of the house – thus, the crown. Here are the credits: Background & elements: The Wee Faerie Ring Crown: Irene Alexeeva Designs […]

After having summer like weather the last few days, the temperature dipped a few notches; enough for me to look at the ripe bananas in the basket and think – banana bread! So, I spent part of the morning happily baking away: Here is the recipe if you are interested. I don’t recall where I got […]
