I Think Husband is Getting Bored.....

Yeah, I think he's getting a little bored with this lock down.

No more Home Depot 'runs'.....nothing really needs to be fixed around the house. The trees and plants are trimmed to within an inch of their lives.......you get the picture.

So, he decided to try and 'capture' some live yeast to make sourdough bread. He makes all of our bread but he uses commercial yeast. And luckily we still have some. But for the day we don't MR. Always Prepared decided to experiment.

Apparently it's a successful experiment. So much so it's starting to take over the kitchen counter!




AND.....he's named it! 
'Foamy'
Seems appropriate to me. 

Maybe this will take his mind off getting that puppy he's been talking about lately......(he talks to Foamy all the time so maybe, we'll see.)

Some of Them Were Wins, Others Not So Much……

I haven’t been feeling very artsy since this whole pandemic thing started. I don’t know if it’s just the usual ebb and flow of the creative muse or it’s a result of the pandemic malaise that seems to have come over us all.


Either way it doesn’t really matter.

‘They’ say the muse comes to the moving hand.

So to try and kick start my creativity I signed up for a bunch of online classes. (Can you say procrastinate????? LOL)

One of the lessons was one from Carla Sonheim. (Click on the link for the quickie video…..I’m too lazy to explain it here.)

Well, I did it.

At least it got my hand moving .But like the title of this post says…….some of them were wins, others not so much…….

I’m here Miss Muse, anytime you’re ready!
