The weather has been perfect for our little garden of Snowdrops.  They are still blooming!  The garden is slowly expanding, but I am still being very frugal with how many flowers I pick.  

I wanted to experiment, so I rolled these with ink.  I also attempted to press a few.  The rest I will continue to enjoy in our mini garden.

Today’s watercolor lesson. I really liked the black and white also.

Megan does a great job with people and I like the character she added to hers. It tells a nice story.

Another set of pictures from our class.

Best thing I learned? We used different paper this time and I like it a lot better!

Megan and I are taking a one week watercolor class. Our first assignment was a coffee cup with a pumpkin and leaves. I did not like the design they used, so I designed my own zarf. (My new word for the day. A “zarf” is a cup sleeve.)

We were given some apples from a friend.  We made apple sauce and then had fun making apple cider.  I know most people enjoy cider warmed up for fall, but I have really enjoyed it with ice these last few hot days.
