You Turn Your Back for a Few Seconds

  The famous pompom mice and tiny hand stitched felt veggies

Well, far be it from me to claim to be a devoted blogger as of late. I had some super good New Year's type intentions but Life Intervened. It's all on the super major, but "kind of personal, not really blog appropriate" side with the decided exception of the beginning of my Fabulous New Career in Agriculture.

I am working with some of my favorite people at one of the best places I know: Mariquita Farm. I will be helping with the administration for the "direct to consumer" portion of the farm business. This is the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture- also known as the farm box) and also the really exciting bulk buying Ladybug/ Mystery Box services. Long story short- I will be working to get the best organic veggies into to the hands of talented home chefs and foodies... And I love that! What could be better?
Local, good for you and yummy! If you are a local bay area friend, go and sign up. (You can thank me later!)

I still expect to be crafting it up again soon, and once I get my ducks in a row, I am looking forward to hanging out here more often!

Take Care and Eat Your Greens!

Happy New Year!

I'd like to join the chorus of wishing everyone a happy 2012!

I'm doing Fun A Day again in January... 

Last year I did Finish A Day. That was fun and satisfying but a little hectic,

so I'm switching it up.

In order to practice my culinary craft, it's Food a Day.

Because let's face it: You have to eat anyway.

And I have a wise friend who once said

the best way to improve your quality of life is to improve your food.

(Meyer lemon curd and candied peels on the first...yum! I feel better already!) 

More later,

right now I'm dashing off to my studio for the first time this year!

Happy  2012. Let's make it a good one!
