Food, Food, Food

I've had food on my mind all day. Well, although that is nothing unusual, today I'm thinking of food themed design collections. I went shopping with my mom recently and i saw lots of beautiful ceramics collections with culinary themes. I realized that I love to cook, love to eat, love Trader Joe's and Fresh Market & farmer's markets but have not food or cooking collections...so I'm off to work on that. Inspiration comes from the strangest places. I'll keep you posted, but in the meantime I think i need a snack.

Spring Flowers Toss

Here are some of the spring flowers in a toss repeat....

February - Is it spring yet?

As nice as the month of February is....I'm really looking forward to March and the spring weather that comes with it. Here in Charlotte we are spoiled, no doubt. We had a few 60-70 degree days last week and now I'm ready for spring to be here for good. This weekend the kids and I walked on one of the new greenways near our house, had a nice picnic along the way. The place was packed with bikers and runners and people out enjoying the beautiful weather and the nature trail. Of course, it was a tease as it is only supposed to be in the 50's today. I know, I know, I grew up in the midwest and a 50 degree day in February should be a good thing!

This spring fever has got me drawing lots of spring flowers lately. The picture is one from one of my newer collections.
