Gonna miss this!
Well i am going to miss my boy, Kipp as he is leaving for Poland next month for his next adventure. He is a young man and is living his life on his terms and doing things most of us dream about. He is in no hurry to settle down, i tell him he hasnt met the right person to make him want to yet. Kipp has the adventurous spirit in him, like my father did. My dad traveled throughout by himself before settling down with my mom when he was almost 30 and in those days 30 was like 60.
Why is it when we are young we want to hurry up and be set in the typical family situation, i mean dont we all dream of meeting someone and having a small pink block home with our 2 children, one boy one girl our poodle and living happily ever after. I am an older gal and that was my dream, only i thought i would be married to David Cassidy and sell Avon part time hee hee. Actually i am living that dream pretty much except i sell my paper mache figures and have 2 Boston Terriers.
so Kipp is a great cook and last night he made this pork dish he loved while he was in Japan and he made won ton soup. i could smell it cooking as i worked in my studio and finally Viola this is what he served us.
and it was so good!!!!!

My Crowded Little Nest
is getting some goodies added tonight. things like a vintage 1950s parking meter that works! vintage red dice in their package, a precious large Bambi figurine amoungst other item and then this, sooooo nostalgic i can almost smell the Avon ice cream cone lipstick from my childhood.
and a pair of these enamel mugs, i may keep and put them on my kitchen windowsill and grow herbs in them. love the patten and coloring
if you get a moment see all the needfuls there and also check out my "new" work on my Nostalgic Folk Art etsy shop. Work that needed updating or tweeking or just that i've decided needed to be released from my home. like this beauty called Old Alice, I mean after all that tripping, maybe Alice ended up an old mess????

My etsy shop is the place to get my work at wholesale prices and this funky santos is the last piece i will have completed by the time i leave for Ga.
she is called Heart of the Innocent. very simple and primitive full of chippy patina goodness!
