Day 312

At our friends Thanksgiving this past weekend I decided to spring this idea on the group.  The results were a mix of funny and serious, exactly what I expected from the "Usual Suspects"....

Here's the Thankful tree before



 

The buffet with leaf ornaments to write on



The Thankful tree with everyone's sentiments after we took

 turns sharing what was written and trying to determine who said what

So if you recall I had recently requested a muse to give me some website insight. My dear friend Maggie took this to heart and asked her students (she teaches 8th grade language arts) for ideas. What resulted was ninety 3x5 index cards chock full of ideas. Come 6/2/10 it's time to pay the piper!

Day 208

For the love of color week

This past week I participated in a creative challenge posted at this blog that I recently started following.  I can't wait for Spring and this was a great exercise to focus my eye to look for that "something specific".  Here are the photos I choose to use for the love of color week......

Thursday-green

A hint of healthy or so I called it....also the first picture I took with my new macro lens.

Friday-pink

An accesory I found at the Jaclyn shop in downtown Oswego.

Saturday-orange

A row of tea bags in the shop at the Village Grind.  For a supposedly friendly place I was pretty much yelled at by the lady working there for taking pictures of their precious items.

Sunday-yellow

Gorgeous prom dresses arranged by color in The Jaclyn Shop.

Monday-blue

An island off the coast of Belize that is a bird santuary for the (don't laugh I swear this is what they are called) Red Footed Booby.

Tuesday-purple

My fabulous $20 shoes from the fancy French store Target.

Wednesday-red

A red rose from my garden from last year....with a baby grasshopper.
