Waterwheel


Ok, so this is not my favorite painting; it was frustrating and dissappointing - but, still part of the learning process. I'm learning that I don't like Bob Ross' wet-on-wet technique, but it took a few of these paintings for that lesson to sink in.

Blond Moments

I haven't been inspired to paint much lately, but I've been creative nonetheless. I've ventured into the realm of beer brewing - here we are in the final stages of bottling and capping our Blond Moments:



We were supposed to let the beer sit in the bottles for 10 days, but could only hold out for seven - we put two in the fridge and let them get cold, then cracked them open and had a try - oh my goodness! We did good! It was a treat to taste this lovely beer that we had created in our own kitchen. We'll be doing it again as soon as we have enough empty bottles to fill up again. Yummmmmmy!
