new things


Hello! Today was a good day. Sometimes you have strings of good days, where jewelry almost strings itself, all the food you order is perfect and you run into old friends. We started off by getting brunch at the Rise and Shine Cafe, I ordered the blt and it was decadent, with avocado and thick slices of bacon. Then we climbed the stairs to see the new pastisserie Creme, I picked up the rosewater meringue (pictured above) and a couple bottles of local honey, poured into charming bottles. After that we headed to Green Life, our local fancy food grocery store and I bought the owl tote and two solid perfumes. In the parking lot we saw our friends Meg and Alisa and chatted with them about this and that. Meg is a well known photographer (she also did our wedding) and I asked her if she'd have time to shoot a portrait of me, for the back of my book. I tried a few times to get a good shot, but I think I'm just not photogenic! Well, we shall see what happens! I'm off to work again, happy and contented that I got out of the studio for awhile.

Hi Cynthia! I met your delightful husband at the Jacksonville show this past weekend. He was so kind! I bought a bracelet that you made and I adore it! Looking forward to your book in a big way. The necklace Andrew made you looks magical! You're a lucky girl...

Hey! Thanks so much! I do feel quite lucky to be surrounded by such talented folks! I'm glad the bracelet found you and you enjoy it for many years.
