WWCM3: Picnic Food

This is like a British bake show picnic or something.

Steam garland from a pot of peppermint tea!

Nocturnowl

I’m becoming a night owl!  Interesting thing about me that I have never yet seen in another person. I really messed myself up by going to bed early. I finally found out at about 28 years old, that I need to stay up until 10 or even 11 in order to sleep well. I have kind of suffered a lot for almost 15 years as melodramatic as that sounds, by going to bed too early. Weird.

hark the herald’s violin ringing like angels singing

BAMBINO

This little painting was in the ugly stage sitting on the counter for days. In the evenings when the bambinas were in their beds, I was too lazy to rise from my couch, scared of the dark and replulsed by the cold to leave the luminous shelter of the christmas tree to venture back into the kitchen.  I pretend to be this tough, discplined loner, yet I am scarred of being 30 feet away from the nearest human on a hard chair when I would rather be in bed close to the warmth of my husband. #explicitunratedmaterial

Chrstmas eve conflagration

I thought it would be beautiful and symbolic to light the advent wreath on Christmas Eve and let the candles die out while we ate and opened presents. Unfortunately the green plastic of the wreath caught on fire. Luckily my husband saw and put it out. I had already painted the candles on the 23rd and just did my best to ignore the charred parts of the wreath when finally getting back into the painting yesterday.

Bearing Tidings of Joy

I saw this at the crafy store months ago and I just had to have it!
