Bento Art

I'm more of a "it doesn't matter what it looks like if it tastes good" cook, but this bento art impresses the hell out of me.

How can you resist this?

Nature

Nature is not always pretty. I think this bird



is a cross between a cardinal and

a buzzard.

(All pictures taken in our back yard.)

We checked with the Dept. of Natural Resources - Hubbo's cousin a DNR biologist - and word came back that the lack of feathers is from poking his head into a bird feeder hole, and the distorted beak was from hitting something. It's not a dread disease; just an unlucky bird.

Move along. Nothing to see.

It's been a while. Not too much crafty-ness going on here. I have been working in the garden, but so far it's been mostly cleanup duty. Ah, well. There is always next month.

Star Trek Opera

I never watch Adult Swim, Robot Chicken...whatever. But this is wonderful.

Shhh - Don't Tell Joanie

My sister-in-law Joanie is an interior designer and helped us with our new light fixture, so I made her this bag. It was designed by another interior designer for carrying samples around.

It is really big.

Really big. (Excuse the blurry photo; the auto focus doesn't seem to work with the self-timer.)
