One singular sensation...


Pictured here in a sort of 'chorusline' are the art dolls that the students made in my class at Art Connection this weekend. Everyone had a great time dying fabric, molding clay faces, threading hair, and stringing beads. It was a very tactile class, and I thoroughly enjoyed watching the students develop their dolls' personalities, as they added original elements.

Only two days until my weekend getaway with the girls. My friend Liz is busy making quiche, which will feed us at breakfast for two days (and then some.)Liz' quiche are always gooey and cheese-filled wonders, and my mouth waters for them as I write this. My sister Cheryl is shaping up our itinerary (eat, drink, craft, shop, repeat)and my sister Jennifer is organizing the sleeping and travel arrangements...which consists of "how many aerobeds do we have, and how will we fit them all into Cheryl's house?" and how many mini-vans and CRV's will we need to drive into Newport for shopping? Before our trip home, our itinerary includes a stop at the Container Store, which I am told is an amazing experience. I'll report back next week.

Dolls are one of my (many) passions! I love these, and I bet your class had fun creating them.

I'm envious of your upcoming girls' getaway weekend......it's been forever since I've done anything like that! Sounds like you'll have a ball...
