160328dungeonductsSo, to recap. These two brown pips are you and me, Mom, sneaking up to the lair of the ice dragon disguised as a young drow and her pet cat.

These two orange pips are the drow guards, who you THREW me at with no warning.

And that’s when it all started going wrong.

Did I miss anything?

160312tunasandwichI made this tuna sandwich myself.

I opened the can.
I washed and cut the celery.
I got the mayonnaise and mixed everything.
I put it on the bread.

I’m not sure Mom looked up from the computer the whole time. She keeps mumbling about how she’s never doing taxes again.

160221watercolorworkshopGrandma taught a watercolor workshop. Karis, Paige, and Neighbor Auntie Dalia came, as did my cousins Veronica and Patrick (and Patrick’s s.o. Laci). I didn’t even know they lived around here!

Everybody did some really great Lonesome Trees.

160220owlresearchMom and Grandma went to Swain’s and Oh No! It was their Buy 1 Get 3 Free canvas sale. So they got 8 tiny canvases. We decided to do a collaborative project on them, with owls as the unifying theme. Grandma and I did some owl research.

We all three, Mom, Grandma, and I, worked on every canvas.

Grandma took three of them home to hang on her wall in Buffalo.
