So far, so good


I've designated 2008 as my year of living wisely and well. I've successfully left a lot of stuff behind me and am movin' on up :)
In the food department, I've been making lots of wonderful winter soups. The latest one , Curried Carrot and Leek, was so simple and soooo good I'm almost embarassed to mention it. I didn't even take a pic! But I'm sure I'll be making it again very soon and will remedy that oversight.
My story writing is going pretty well and you can read me online at

And some of my very simple but kinda pretty jewellery designs are actually selling locally at a gift shop called LadyBugs. Incredible.I have a little online showcase at Etsy, http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5530432
And the sun even came out today! Glorious! I spent most of the afternoon out in the crisp cold air, doing a bit of yard work. Does it get much better than this?

Beautiful things! You are multi-talented ...

I like your 'designated' year. I'm going to designate 2008 my year to enjoy things without feeling I have to 'earn' the enjoyment through some literary achievement. I shall eat chocolate without having to write 200 words"

Yeah, what's up with that? The links were working a couple of days ago, now they're not.

Maybe you'll have to try the oldfashioned copy and paste method, sorry!
