Changing Blog Name

The Peanut Gallery!

Thought I'd show our progress-- I really need to get online & see what conditions this thing is "Supposed" to grow in.

Peanuts!



So, here I am doing some random chores around the house. Watering the plants & picking off the dead leaves (since I think I forgot to water them in December)...

LOOK WHAT I FOUND!

Yep, that's a peanut growing in my spider plant.
Hmm, wonder how long that peanut (in the shell no less) has been in there. That plant is one that goes outside when it warms up... Guess it has been awhile.

Amanda's Wedding


It was lovely.
I had a weekend out-of-town, and it was nice to catch up with old friends.
Funny thing- I didn't get a single picture of her or the groom, only a handful of her daughter dancing at the dinner reception!
Anyway, we each made promises to keep in touch better, and hope to plan a girls weekend in a few months.

The cake: 3 tiers of a rich chocolate cake, four layers each with a black raspberry filling and REAL buttercream frosting. The picture she sent me was about the size of a quarter, but I guess I got pretty close!

Opps. Got something really different

...For my work.

Trying to work more on a target market. Seems the beachy bit is the tween-twenty thing. So, after some light research- I'm incorporating chain into my work.

I've done some cool earrings with Sterling chain, and now a pewter charm on chain. Antiqued silver-plate chain.

see them at my etsy shop http://FishOnTheWall.etsy.com.

That's all for now.
