Taking Time Out to Pose for the Camera

Posted on February 12, 2021 by Mama Cormier

Today the backyard was a hive of activity for the squirrels. They were climbing the trees and jumping from one branch to another and there was a lot of chasing going on. This one little guy appeared to be enjoying the sun and just stood there soaking up the rays.

Water, Water Everywhere – #63

Posted on February 10, 2021 by Mama Cormier

….thanks to Jez for hosting Water, Water Everywhere https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2021/02/08/bridges-fan-of-96-and-water-water-everywhere-63/

Drips, drops and blobs of coloured water. When you don’t get outside you need to come up with some inventive water pictures. I always have water on my art table and I started playing with the water, brushes and paints.

Friendly Friday Challenge – Special Treats

Posted on January 30, 2021 by Mama Cormier

...thanks to Sandy this week for hosting the Friendly Friday Challenge https://thesandychronicles.blog/2021/01/29/friendly-friday-challenge-special-treats/

I have quite the sweet tooth but mostly for cookies or cakes. I’ve never been one for candy, other than chocolate. My husband also has a sweet tooth and he has asked me not to bring any sweets into the house for awhile. If I have one cookie he’ll eat three.

For the challenge this week I’ve gone back into the archives to search for special treats. I soon discovered that not all yummy pleasures have to be made with sugar. Fresh strawberries and homemade pizza are always special in our house.
