Play - Dee - Dough

My great-niece Jules loves to play with Play - Dee - Dough. Only problem is she doesn't much like to play it alone.


So I took out the rolling pin... and she confiscated it at the earliest opportunity.

Address Book

Everyone who has visited our house knows that signing the guest book is de rigueur.

This is our third guest book and Grandma was excited to be the first one to sign - October 12, 2003.

Wine, Wax, Word

I was fiddling with sunlight and apertures. Don't worry, the candle still has its funky wax drip.

Peppers

Tried to crop, but desktop is fried and netbook has no photo editing software.

Jack Be Nimble

I like the way the wax curled on the Christmas candle...
so I tried to get the shadow. The theory was better than the execution. Lots to learn.

Kristen's Curls and Shadow

Kristen and I were messing around with the sunlight and shadow in the living room. These photos were her idea.
Of course since I don't have a photographer's eye I don't know which one is more pleasing so I'll include both and you can decide.

Sauce Me

This is the result of 2 cans of tomato paste - extra thick and yummy. One of the containers was strained 3 times in anticipation of Dink & Diane's upcoming visit.

Oops

This is what happens when you cut a cantaloupe the wrong way.

Bleak Backyard Winter Scenes

The backyard is none too pretty in the winter.


The pool furniture is looking cold and lonely.

The only sign of the rabbit who hops around the yard so joyously in the summer.

Dictionary & Magnifying Glass

This unabridged dictionary cost only $20. The magnifying glass belonged to my parents. Perhaps my father used it when looking at his coin collection. Just as possible - my mother bought it at the dollar store.
