Tea for Tuesdays ... hot and spicy

I had several old friends drop by today...my favorite Frosty Morning Bluegrass Boys... and even though the skies were gray and mostly wet....the environment inside the studio was filled with Sunshine from the hearts. I am watching The Fabulous Beekman Boys and enjoying their journey as entrepreneurs and contemporary farmers. They have a very WIDE circle of influential friends in high places like Martha Stewart, the New York fashion industry and the some prominent vendors like Bendels and Bloomingdales. Maximize the profits...selecting the inventory... writing and book signings... plus a Bling farmer boots with crystals.... for the cooking demonstrations...all of this is a cooperative business partnerships. Life just does not get simple for anyone.

I worked on my tag files ...making a sample of collage for the students to preserve their individual works as they work in the studio. I added pastels to my canvas collage...leave your fears at the door.... and continued to carve into my soft block for printmaking. before I knew it it was 5:30 and I went off to meet Ken for a light dinner. I went to the bedroom and added the heating pad to my ears...they are so painful right now and seem full....so uncomfortable. I guess I will have to call my doctor and decide what is the next step. Have a wonderful night. Imagine and Live in Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
