MILK AND COOKIES, 8X10, OIL


Today is going to be a fun day. My husband and I are driving south for a celebratory brunch with our daughter and her children. They live a little over 1 1/2 hours away from us, so we usually meet somewhere in the middle. The cause of celebration today is our 45th wedding anniversary. On one hand, it seems we have been married forever, but really, 45 YEARS! Where did the time go???
A week or so ago I blogged about a little Spring Scavenger hunt the Original Artists on Etsy Team was planning. It starts Saturday morning! One of our team members has donated an item as the prize and all you have to do to win it, is to FIND IT! If you are interested in trying, go to our team store now, pick a team member and go to their shop. Follow the clues until you find the treasure. If you think you have found the item, post the item number on our team blog in a comment. We also ask that you tell us about your favorite item that you found during the hunt. Good luck!
One more thing, I have been bestowed with the blogger award again. I am so very pleased to get this award multiple times, so, Fabio, I cannot thank you enough that you think I am worthy.
I will not bore you all with another list of favorite things, and although, I could easily pick another 7 favorite artists, I think I have had my time in the sun. So, I will just urge all of you to visit the site of Fabio Cembranelli and be amazed by his skill in watercolor. He is a wonderful, talented artist, and cute too!

Hi Carol, I love the cookies and the pears, both glowing with color. The oranges and greens are perfect together. Really beauiful. And happy anniversary.
