Here I am, friends! It's been a while, but since I have not officially stopped blogging (just paused it), I am celebrating my 16th blogiversary this month!
Unfortunately, I haven't created a recipe for you and written about it and photographed it. Nevertheless, I thought it high time I wrote a little something.
As life takes its twists and turns, new things take over the calendar and the clock, and old interests fall lower and lower on one's to-do list. Food blogging and art are two of those interests.
Still not "feeling it" in the food department, I have been feeling the need to paint so started going through my supplies this week. Couldn't decide what to paint, then I remembered I've been wanting to send a thank-you card to someone. Since the person likes wildflowers and rustic flowers, I decided to do a little sunflower.
And I wanted to start small. It's been sooo long, I wasn't at all sure how it would go. So a tiny painting, 3.5x5 inches for a card, was a sensible choice. Several attempts wouldn't waste all that much of my expensive watercolor paper. As it happened, I felt kind of okay about the first effort and so stopped there. No paper wasted!
Now, if I can just paint a little every few days, I'll be happy. No point in my setting the unrealistic goal of a "daily practice," which would be ideal.
Even though I didn't meet my goal of doing a food post for my 16th blogiversary, I hope you'll take a look at the Recipes index page and perhaps find something delicious among the hundreds of recipes.
Still on hiatus,
Do say Hello in the comments,
Jean
