BLUE

Picasso's Blue period
The Blue Ridge Mountains
Blueberry Yum Yum!
probably my favorite fruit, whose yearly time to shine is NOW!
The color of my first car Bonnie that I just sold today!
300 dollars seems so insignificant for something full of such sentimental value.
A sadness, like when losing a friend.
instead of a black phase in high school, I had a blue one.
My mom's favorite kitchen color.







I found a few pictures of good memories from my Blue Bonnie!















Driving to a Farm vs NRC softball game, good old WWC days...
The dash was always so full of Treasures!
















The time Chris left one of my cups on top of the car, we realized while going 70 down the highway on a trip to New Orleans. oh the grabber, boy hanging out the window. cup is still alive.
















The epic birthday party shared with good friends. Bean, I am going to miss you. I wish you all the best in your new adventures. I will cherish all the good memories.

The recipe for the world famous Blueberry Yum Yum. Always a crowd pleaser.  
I use less water and cornstarch in the Blueberry part, keeps them a little runny and not so jelatinous! 
Funny, if you Google "Blueberry Yum Yum" you will learn that the rapper Ludacris has a song with the same name.....about things that people smoke. 


On the round-about current events, we got a nice brick sidewalk out front of the building. 
Funny the coincidences in my life, considering that I am working on a Blue wedding right now!
So, appreciate that blue sky and smile into those pretty blue eyes.

HAIR (toot and hair clips)

Summertime heat makes me want to cut all of my hair off!  I have been resisting the urge to turn the large bun on my head into a short little boy cut!  I just can't decide should I cut it or not?

I have a hard time committing to what my hair style should be, but when it comes to my little dog, I love cutting her hair!  For the past couple years I have been giving Toot a mohawk for the hot summer months.  This year, a friend made a suggestion for a spiral mohawk!  So, I went for it!  I shaved her all over except for the spiral and her fluffy little feet, it makes her legs look so small. chicken legs! She likes to prance around.

From the side it looks like she has on a Tu-Tu.........TOOT-TOOT! She is such a funny little dog, I am so thankful to have her in my life I get to bring her with me to the studio every day! 



She has grown to love small children, especially Charlie, they often will let her lick them as much and for as long as she likes! She loves the snow and Eliza! A little old lady Princess dog.  
So, in the world of button flowers, I have NEW.........HAIR CLIPS!!!!!!


The Hair clips come in 3 sizes- small, medium, and Large.  The order of the pictures is big to small.  I have wanted to make button hair clips for years, but I did not want to just glue the buttons on.  So, I was so excited to find these clips that have holes so that I can wire the buttons on there. Much more sturdy!
