Welcome to the third day of my Flashback Friday Kickoff Week! Ahh…this was a wonderful memory! Running for chocolate! My niece and I participated in a 5K Chocolate run that was held in Chicago.

Quick Update and a promise…
Okay readers. Enough is enough. I need to stop knitting and start creating more art! I know I am tough on myself, and I logically know I have been truly up to my ears in knitting projects since April. I just haven’t made my other passion important enough. If you are curious about what I have…
What is your favorite quote or saying that sparks your creativity?

Flashback Friday: My childhood kitchen table circa 1992

Flashback Friday: May 2, 2013
Welcome to May 2nd 2013. May 2nd 2013 seems like a really boring day, doesn’t it? I choose to post this particular entry to prove two things. One, not all visual jouranl enties have to be some grand exodus into our memories or be some thought provoking visual montage. Some of my entries are simply…
