The final Soup Sunday is here! That doesn't mean the end of making soup. I love soup and I'm sure I'll make it here and there, and I plan on doing Soup Sunday season two later this year. Next week we start New Recipe Saturday! I plan on trying recipes from Pinterest and my cookbooks that I haven't had time to try. I hope you like it as much as Soup Sunday!

Took a glassblowing class last week, picked up the end products today. I think they may hold water… or better, whiskey #glassblowing #tryingnewthings #glasshaus

Finally seasoned my wok over the weekend. Cooked a Mongolian beef thing last night and the family ate it up. Made some fried rice for lunch from the leftover rice, was good. Might have had too much fresh garlic last night, and too much soy sauce today, but I’m trying new things and the results haven’t killed me yet! #SeasonedWok #MongolianBeef #FriedRice #CookingAdventures #TryingNewThings

Millrind Scroll for Marguerite De Neufchasteau

Inspiration from The Walters’ Lace Manuscript.

Wording as based on an extant example from:
Kaborycha, Lisa. A Corresponding Renaissance: Letters Written by Italian Women, 1375-1650. Oxford University Press, 2015.
21. Lucrezia (Nannina) de’ Medici confides in her mother Lucrezia Tornabuoni about a marital disagreement

I am enjoying scrolling through past trips' galleries to find pictures to use as examples to practice my sketching. I admit that otherwise I rarely look at the pictures.

Some more sketching. Trying to get past my mind weasels of "it doesn't resemble the real thing, color inside the lines"

Trying out Headspace on Android to see if I can assist myself into meditation and mindfullness. But becoming so overwhelmed in the app with the very American upbeat intro video and lack of free meditations that my heart rate went up.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good meditation and mindfullness app I can try out without becoming more anxious?

Day 3 -
Today is an experience of less is more... I'm learning all about ink and the difference between pencils and ink pens! 😂 I liked the figures much better as an idea than the black ink version in the end... I also tried too many plays on perspective in one drawing deliberately going for an Alice in wonderland mismatch which got lost a bit. It's a new playground and I'm loving it!

I have enough soup recipes to try different soups once a week for 6 weeks. 7 if you count beef stew as a soup. It's soup season! I'll be documenting my experience here and Instagram. I think if I have energy I'll do beef stew on Saturday.

It's a two day process given that I want to use shredded beef instead of stew beef so I'll have to slow cook the beef on Friday or early Saturday.

I just tried something new 🤯 and picked from the garden 🤯🤯. Fresh carrot tops, yay! Shame the carrots are still teeny tiny 😂🥕 but we both liked the tops! 😋 #pennybun #tryingnewthings #bunny

I started taking a foundations in UI class this month. I have been absolutely terrified submitting my assignments each week, as I don’t see myself as being very strong in visual design. So far I have had to use my words more than anything which has been to my advantage. Doing well so far and that’s keeping my confidence up.

We ordered 2 #kebabs each. They were not playing around with the portion sizes.

I’ve been trying to teach myself to make linocut prints. Brand new at it. Feels good to work with my hands. It’s sometime hard to learn a new medium but I’m trying be proud of small progresses and not focus on the flaws too much. Trying botanicals to start- but maybe abstractions might be fun.

Here I am, 7 years ago this week, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and excited to be interviewed for KING FM’s Musical Chairs show with Michael Brooks. I think it was my first time being on the radio, and Mike made it easy...

Man, I spent so many decades being *so* afraid of failing, now I welcome it (and I’m good at it)!
