..sunday soup..


ellie measuring cups.

today's sunday soup is brought to you by - some
happy musing. ones that i love and want to give
a little shout out to.

the curious girl.....i met lisa at squam. the first
year i watched her walking around and i was so
drawn to her. i really didn't get to know her until
this past year at squam by the sea. i adore her.
she makes sense and i like that. she also makes
a mean margarita. i mean, the only thing i remember
is lots of giggling, i mean a lot. please go say hello.
she's pretty cute.

catina jane.....she paints the most colorful paintings,
makes fun little necklaces. her little sailboats makes
me smile. her message is strong, as is her faith. you
gotta love a girl on a mission. i love stopping over
at her blog and today she shows up, tells her truth,
she is true and brave. she makes me smile

kolleen my heart-wingsister
we met at the unearth retreat. i drove up at her
cottage to pick them up and take them all back
to the main house. she said something very funny
and sassy and i knew we would be friends. she has
a way of making you feel at home. and her
i'm better for it series, pushes you to listen
and know that each of us have a story that matters.
she is also an artist who creates fun and sassy chicks.
she is my midwest connect, my sister.

sara of sarab jewelry. her metalsmithing is amazing.
her silver creations make me drool. i had seen her
work several years ago at the broadripple art fair.
the she magically appeared at my booth this year
at the earth house show. she is adorable and being
able to reconnect and share some stuff was the
very best medicine of the day. she is a hometown
girl, go say hello and check out her wares.

tricia....i have much to say about tricia. but will
keep much of it close to my heart. another unearth
sister. she is quite at first as is her sister judy. they
come as a pair and you can't help but get a kick out
of this dynamic duo. tricia makes handmade journals
they are full of paper and good stuff. i can't wait
to get mine in the post, but i have to send her my
old dr. seuss book that she is going to turn to magic
first. yes, i am kinda slow. but my scarf sisters know
this and are so sweet embracing my nutty self.

jennifer....i don't even know where to start with this
chickadee. she is my poet pal. she is kind, sweet
and wants for nothing but a loving world full of
good stuff. i mean really don't we all. i go to her
spot to find balance, to breath deep and to smile.
she sends me little texts to let me know she is
thinking of me and they always seem to arrive
at the perfect moment. or rather when i am having
an imperfect moment and they make me smile.
she is such a nugget, and if it is raining you might
just see her out in the middle of the street with
her rainboots on, giggling.

check back next sunday for some more soup.

....my cup spills over.

monday smiles


12.30.10 - me and bryce.

a little about the boy...

he runs marathons, works ridiculously long hours, asks for
very little in return, loves athletics, has legs of steel, loves
to dance to vanilla ice, asks me everyday how my day was,
has the tiniest butt, looks good in blue, rides a fierce roadbike,
looks up at me in the gym with a smile, is a papa to my three
kids and you would think they were his. rode ragbrai this summer,
is qualified for boston, does a wicked job of keeping us out
of debt, cooks and cleans - but sucks up the handyman stuff,
hates to go to movies - but loves summer concerts. rarely is
in a bad mood, yet deals with my mood everyday. lucky me.

we met when i was 32 and he was 22...he lied about his
age. somehow 13 years later we are still laughing at each
other while getting on each others nerves.

i kinda dig him.

bless my soul *[ sacred ]


my sacred life - frida

[ there is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's
going to be a butterfly. ] ~buckminster fuller

i have a frida pendant that i wear almost everyday. and
it amazes me when people ask if i know anything about her.
then they always make a big comment of [she was crazy,
or have you seen her art?! almost offended, and i get this
crazy sick gratitude, when i answer - why yes! because
i am
not at all offended by frida.

she is the butterfly.
