Two Stacked Pumpkins
Welcome to Pumpkin Central where two stacked pumpkins are a sign of a happy home. Right? No? Well, maybe not everyone is as absolutely nutsoid and crazy about pumpkins as I am. (Mr Studly, by the way, completely agrees with the previous statement ;-D). But before I get too far ahead of myself, please let’s […]
Usual Suspects
In last week’s post, I describe my delight at the discovery of what now is this week’s usual suspects: kabocha squash and red pears. Oh la lah I am so excited to share some adventures in a new medium. But wait, dear reader, before I share all of that, let’s remind any new readers (welcome!) […]

Hello dear reader! Do you have a feeling we have reached a Tipping Point? Good Goddess I hope we have…on so many fronts. Two things before I go much further: 1. what is a tipping point and 2. what is this blog, painting and post all about. Definition of Tipping Point Previously, I have written […]

A Series Before I get ahead […]
Aging Gracefully
What is it about this moment in time that made me think of aging gracefully? Hmmm…perhaps just the fact that we all are?

Letting Go
Who is letting go these days? How about everyone and everything, don’t you think? Even the oak tree across from our house is letting go leaves and branches and acorns in the middle of summer time.
