Eating bread and honey

The Little Miss has really started loving her nursery rhymes. Really. So the current project, okay, one of the current projects is a quiet book page based on 'Sing a Song of Sixpence.' I started with the bread and honey, not forgetting the 'ife. That's honey, not peanut butter. And it really does stick. College education at its finest.

Can you guess how it works?

Sneak without the peek

How many people do you know research Medieval art for a quiet book page? Well, now you know one. More soon!

Page The First

We have completion! At least a start of completion. Here is page one of the church style quiet book. The face is based off of 'If You Chance to Meet a Frown.' The Little Miss was a bit upset when I took her face and attached it to another cloth. She has tried to remove it several times. I hope it holds up. Now on to the moon and stars. After that, is the earth, the animals, then Adam and Eve. It's going to take a lot more than 7 days for me.

(It's quiet now...)

My crafty self has decided to make the Little Princess a quiet book, church style. I've been contemplating the creation and other Bible stories, to include at least one Adam and Eve page. In a nerdy moment of inspiration, or possibly indigestion, I thought about basing it off an anatomy lesson. I'm not thinking Anat/Phys 301, but Adam has a heart, lungs, and a brain. When bouncing the idea off my mister, he said I should include the ribs cage, but make sure one is removable. Smart.

Hopefully more to come, assuming it actually happens.

Green thumb?

It's already mid-80s here and I have yet to plan the garden. So tomorrow is garden day: peas, beans, lettuce, tomato, and maybe corn and sunflowers. :) My husband and I wrote a plant based love poem for Valentine's day the seems applicable:

Roses are brown.
Violets are brown.
It must be time-
To get out of town.

Welcome to more Southern Arizona gardening!

Merry Christmas!

I love advent calendars. My sister is serving an LDS mission, so we made her one as a family. Here's the daily scripture list:
