It’s February turned April around here. Although it is a bit colder now, I’ve got bulbs sprouting and last year’s lettuce that I’ve been neglecting seems to be out in full regalia. The rabbits have lived comfortably all winter in the hutch my dad helped me make them out of an old dog house. They lounge and watch the birds in the yard and probably make snide comments under their breath when those silly dogs come out to frolic.
I’m still doing my best to eat more simply and healthfully with less meat. My favorite soup of the season seems to be french onion soup which is so, so easy. It also involves cheese, which is also a plus! My good friend Jenny gave me this large mug with Forget-Me-Nots on it for Christmas. When I saw it, I thought “now there’s a soup mug!”
I had meant to be packing the store full of originals this year, and that’s still my goal! I’ve just had some other projects come up first thing. I did add one of my favorite little paintings, Adalaide, to the shop yesterday though. She’s very pretty and so perfect for spring. I try not to have favorites when it comes to art, but she really is. She’s got light springtime colors, but there’s also a rich darkness to the piece as well, with lots of good aged crackle (you know I love the crackle. You can see more about the painting HERE.
Anyhow…Good news! I’m going to pick up the Little House prints today, plus more that I will add to the shop as well. Can’t wait to share all the new things with you!~
