Creative things that I did this week...

I just finished watching Julie & Julia- it's the movie about the blogger who made every recipe in Julia Child's cookbook, and blogged about it, for 365 days. How fun! And ambitious. I know I could never do that, because although I like to cook I simply can't imagine cooking all that food for just me and Rob (without gaining 30 pounds each, anyway.) Plus, it would have to be my only hobby and if you don't know me well, let me tell you- I already have too many. But what a delightful story and life-changing experience for Julia Powell.

As for blogging daily, that would be an adventure too! I still haven't got the gist of this, it's too personal for me to write every day about everything.

I have just discovered the joy of drawing! I decided that I wanted some designs to transfer onto clay and perhaps turn into stamps so I took out some white cardstock, got a folder and some Staedler pens, my stack of Dover reference books, and started to draw. I am now down to about 3 hours for a completed and acceptable drawing. I've done 4. I am enjoying it so much I don't know if I will ever stop. I just bought a new sketchbook and had to get a new purse that can properly hold it! And I'm thinking my blog background might have to change. We'll see.
