Happy to showcase my skill and teach class at the Wayne County Gem Fest this weekend. Class is 12:30 each day. If needed a second class in the afternoon will be announced at the event. <p></p><p><br /></p><p>We will be exhibiting the beautiful Geodes, thundereggs, and slabs we have with the public at the event. As a lapidary, I seems to have acquired a ton of rocks, literally. There will be a few cabochons for those who do not like stone cutting, also. </p><p>As a wire artist, how could I exclude my creations? There will be some of my small wearable works of art available. </p><p><br /></p><h2><br /></h2><h2>Black Lives Matter<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh70KY2JPqkmIND9VTIsW6OthhaTKCuOHmOCYBFVCLdw_zE-0u-SQVDkQ-JiENeYHfsDjpjGheY6jdZAhsMG7_-uYDYCRJNY_ozs7qPGteG2c1wuAX7G521RIbDr_4dYhWJO-Bwp2dMesP1_va_trYFAAlYcFt4E2Ifv7Cfq0I4mNVsxeIyW6yIN81VPw/s900/BLM_text.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="900" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh70KY2JPqkmIND9VTIsW6OthhaTKCuOHmOCYBFVCLdw_zE-0u-SQVDkQ-JiENeYHfsDjpjGheY6jdZAhsMG7_-uYDYCRJNY_ozs7qPGteG2c1wuAX7G521RIbDr_4dYhWJO-Bwp2dMesP1_va_trYFAAlYcFt4E2Ifv7Cfq0I4mNVsxeIyW6yIN81VPw/s320/BLM_text.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></h2><div><br /></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;"><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><b>Free the People ROC </b>is the group in Rochester, NY. </span></span></span><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><b style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></b></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;"><b style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ftproc">Free the People ROC</a></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></b></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;"><b style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></b></div><div><br /><p style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: -webkit-standard; font-size: 13.2px;"><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: large;">We need to support our brothers and sisters.</span></p><br />#blm</div><div>#bekind<br />#blacklivesmatter <br />#lovewins</div><div>#ally</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><br /><h2>Buy Local from the Maker</h2><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPymMdvFYdyAh_vAtZqT_jQ0VZU2uoJy6XnDUEPQ3EVDM2v3NfZWI9b2nN4ENoeUuq8MxcxV3BvSmOi90JzxRObD1QoeubUZ9F5pjqd7OpkxmzvBfcnUbN25EgyFSYE2KDueULdlV8cuOUMui0mIJ-uoudEVGTXRjaQjKBRXbdpKwKhAe7IIrxacKKUA/s1000/2DE51E3C-680B-4DCC-B5F8-85A098316AA1.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="667" data-original-width="1000" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPymMdvFYdyAh_vAtZqT_jQ0VZU2uoJy6XnDUEPQ3EVDM2v3NfZWI9b2nN4ENoeUuq8MxcxV3BvSmOi90JzxRObD1QoeubUZ9F5pjqd7OpkxmzvBfcnUbN25EgyFSYE2KDueULdlV8cuOUMui0mIJ-uoudEVGTXRjaQjKBRXbdpKwKhAe7IIrxacKKUA/s320/2DE51E3C-680B-4DCC-B5F8-85A098316AA1.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div><span style="color: black; font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 13.2px;">Why shop small?

We took last year off to treat the garden for a tomato problem. We are planting tomatoes this week. Happy dance over here. Their harvest will be the next BIG celebration. <p></p><p>The current harvest or happy plants include leaf lettuce, mustard, and collards. Our snow peas are vining but not producing yet. Lettuce in the picture at right. </p><p>Happy for the normal temperatures to return so the spring growing season can produce the food we enjoy. The climate emergency has shown types of plants we choose will need to change. With strong fluctuations as wet and dry as well as hot and cold this spring we need to prepare.</p><p><br /></p><h2>Black Lives Matter<br /></h2><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuS1Yc7RJfL8nZSeJLXvyRcp3fHDyKrsB5N69hWwdh8RaYOMxPZo5o2dDbpXSBrBX10ylojNmbQav_GGBnCtO0g86pg_BvsfqIi7hjabJnEmH8gFyp13HNSOcJ4_ITKDKSfqyDEXJn4Y21Gxnw1sDZKB1pMTS40FxORh_1cnRx4LZjsBBGbsEwgyWCXg/s800/BJ_white.png" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="418" data-original-width="800" height="167" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuS1Yc7RJfL8nZSeJLXvyRcp3fHDyKrsB5N69hWwdh8RaYOMxPZo5o2dDbpXSBrBX10ylojNmbQav_GGBnCtO0g86pg_BvsfqIi7hjabJnEmH8gFyp13HNSOcJ4_ITKDKSfqyDEXJn4Y21Gxnw1sDZKB1pMTS40FxORh_1cnRx4LZjsBBGbsEwgyWCXg/s320/BJ_white.png" width="320" /></a></div><p><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;">We need to change the way we treat others in this country.</span></span></span></span></span></span><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"> #blm #blacklivesmatter #ally #bekind #lovewins </span></span></span></span></span></span></p><div><p><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><b>Free the People ROC </b>is the group in Rochester, NY. </span><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"> </span></span></span></span></span></span><b style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></b></p></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div><b style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ftproc">Free the People ROC</a></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></b></div><p></p><p></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2>Buy Local from the Maker</h2><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb-HA7h6JLgisliqHQm0iroxz1kaQAtawDECRgv2hkGKLDobo1XLCQmjGFuP6Wpr8dRojQJNTz1kTNFs9iWfbWktDog2mqsWjCvrjV4JN8sYsgjcEpLzxoxoSWQgTEIK2WroW1_gAzZTfChUar9zuXzd5tts_QEeyQcMfQO09aSLFlOKut_yDuoiI98A/s700/butterfly_copper_black_small.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="694" data-original-width="700" height="317" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb-HA7h6JLgisliqHQm0iroxz1kaQAtawDECRgv2hkGKLDobo1XLCQmjGFuP6Wpr8dRojQJNTz1kTNFs9iWfbWktDog2mqsWjCvrjV4JN8sYsgjcEpLzxoxoSWQgTEIK2WroW1_gAzZTfChUar9zuXzd5tts_QEeyQcMfQO09aSLFlOKut_yDuoiI98A/s320/butterfly_copper_black_small.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div><span style="color: black; font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: 13.2px;">Why shop small?

I enjoy seeing so many gardens come to life after a long winter. my joy comes from the success of the plants I have growing. In the veggie garden right now are my cooking greens & lettuces. I feel lucky to be in Rochester, NY and have the Fredrick Law Olmsted designed gardens to walk through here. As the calendar says mid spring, the lilacs in Highland Park are bursting with their fabulous scent. <p></p><p>This is some of the late fall 2022 Collard I planted last year. It was not big enough to harvest last fall and it has overwintered here. We had an odd winter and it was not cold long enough to kill this off. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXo5WCRUrYZEJnKNIjVUFw4_9ZD_SNOuzquDAkJJz7BIrc5tpJ9XwiaPMPhdcYkkfEKoMreAA_TuvE9qZfJDeJuNBHrx2_aicyXGwGeqph4HJAAMtcDVQjoLXPlTZ0aypRFqgHfDCnLzeC5PTlzjXUb7ZvNBiA_aEH0ub4DXn5dD_1uf5eMdNGMkOEBw/s4032/22CC4E20-A0B6-40D5-996A-31D399D3BA71.heic" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXo5WCRUrYZEJnKNIjVUFw4_9ZD_SNOuzquDAkJJz7BIrc5tpJ9XwiaPMPhdcYkkfEKoMreAA_TuvE9qZfJDeJuNBHrx2_aicyXGwGeqph4HJAAMtcDVQjoLXPlTZ0aypRFqgHfDCnLzeC5PTlzjXUb7ZvNBiA_aEH0ub4DXn5dD_1uf5eMdNGMkOEBw/s320/22CC4E20-A0B6-40D5-996A-31D399D3BA71.heic" width="240" /></a></div><p><br /></p>Why I love gardening. My paternal Grandma had an amazing green thumb. Growing up, I helped her in her gardens. I have fond memories of her yard in the spring bursting with colors. Some of the flowers and plants in her gardens: roses, zinnias, geraniums, peonies, sweet potato vine, pansies, petunias, snapdragons, raspberries, blackberries, violets and many others. <p></p><p>This is perennial sage in my backyard garden. I have many fond memories every spring when the snapdragon bloom. it still is my favorite flower and she always put them into water whenever I harvested the wild snaps near her summer cottage. As I grow older, I am grateful for all I have learned from her about gardening and food storage. She is the reason I started canning tomatoes. Now in the winter, I can enjoy the fresh tomato flavor forth summer garden.

My favorite day is the 1st day digging into the garden for the the initial seeds of the season. It is about four weeks away. As we prepare for the 2023 Veggie garden, I was working on the design a few weeks ago. As we stared some seeds, our excitement builds. <p></p><p>The most important element to keeping our garden happy is the homemade compost we add to the soil every year. happy to have soaker hoses in the gardens so the water goes only where we need it. </p><p>Shown are a few of the early sprouts of our vegetables and Morrisonite in gold statement pendant.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Black Lives Matter</h2><div style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34);

My father and his mother have birthdays in February. Dad's birthday is today and his mom's is next Saturday. I had the tremendous pleasure of extended time with family this fall. It was priceless and memorable. <p>This cutie is me held by my father with his father on the left of the picture. Obviously, is an older photograph printed on paper and aged naturally. Sadly, we lost my father to cancer when I was a teenager. Cancer Sucks. </p><p>The pic was taken in my grandparents living room. I do not remember this day. oh the memories in that room...... Inside the doorway behind them is where the books to read were kept. </p><h2><br /></h2><h2>BLACK LIVES MATTER</h2><h2><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/ftproc">Free the People ROC</a> </b>is the group in Rochester, NY. </span><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><span style="color: black;"> </span></span></span></span></span></span></h2><div><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJf4LKIwCHGn8Q6hPd44iaxcGguaT62aDdz6npXfGYu40fluH2L-6Nqe8u2c8W3QKYiXXn6wd_SMvLu8UdOJpN0UHQHeSiGyN_UI_E9oIlvQZd8cZykRm9jgynxm4Rr5iS6SS0Rt8R0GGRpToZJbTbeK1Lc6EMWz6KI80H80ZWcTo8R34xrMOvnfDDRQ/s776/BLM.jpeg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="776" data-original-width="744" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJf4LKIwCHGn8Q6hPd44iaxcGguaT62aDdz6npXfGYu40fluH2L-6Nqe8u2c8W3QKYiXXn6wd_SMvLu8UdOJpN0UHQHeSiGyN_UI_E9oIlvQZd8cZykRm9jgynxm4Rr5iS6SS0Rt8R0GGRpToZJbTbeK1Lc6EMWz6KI80H80ZWcTo8R34xrMOvnfDDRQ/s320/BLM.jpeg" width="307" /></a></div><br /></span></span></span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;">Link is their Facebook page.</span></span></span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span><span style="color: #351c75;"><br /></span></span></span></span></span></div><p></p><p>I believe in supporting my local community.

personal me time. Join me and put down time on you calendar every month. I put everything on my calendar so I am not double booked.

signed up. It was an incredible event 1-21-17 2017. Here are a few of the 120 women I traveled to DC with as part of the largest peaceful protest. </p><p>We knew the term of the misogynist, 45, would be horrible. We hoped it wold not extend past his term, it has. Stand up and take action to bring us back together. </p><p>One memory from this March is the love and community of the families at the event. Whatever you needed, they were ready to hand to you. <br /></p><p></p>Panda Wearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01815355879082756195noreply@blogger.com0
