*Crochet Your Heart!
(Last year's Valentine's Card. I'm working on this year's!:) I think I might like Valentine's Day even more than Christmas. Well no...maybe it's a tie. What I like is that Valentine's is simple. Or can be. Just a little gift to let someone know you "heart" them. And of course, the chocolate is pretty cool too! … Continue reading *Crochet Your Heart!
Rhubarb
The blogging community is a delightful place! Though you send out posts to what seems like a void, there are folks who resonate with your writings/art and take the time to let you know. They also will add their own marvelous perspectives and I am enriched by their sharing. This happened to me yesterday as … Continue reading Rhubarb

But as I was walking yesterday, I kept thinking this: Gray winter days are best enjoyed with … Continue reading Gray Winter Days…
Delight :: 2015
Happy New Year to One and All! This is the word I've chosen for this New Year!! Actually, it feels a bit like the word was tugging at my sleeve, asking to be picked up and carried throughout 2015. As I look down the corridor of 2015, I'm delighted that I don't have surgery awaiting … Continue reading Delight :: 2015
Macy’s Merry Wish

If you'd like a Christmas treat, put the kettle on and sip some tea while you read about Macy and her making heart. Begin here, then here, then end here.

The Violence to Healing
Won't you pop over to my other blog Drawn2Life? I really should have posted it here on this blog since it's a knitterly post! But I tend to put my writerly thoughts over there...hmmm...I think that may need to change!:)
