Anyhow above is what I made for Cinco De Mayo dinner; brown & jasmine rice, avocado slices, tomato slices and sauteed chicken breast with lemon juice & paprika, oh and a random Mexican beer someone left in my fridge. Yum! I am totally exhausted and didn't want to cook but it was worth it.
I've been pickin' away at rearranging things for more work space in the house. The back room is now an official studio. I got this spectacular 1940s office desk to use as a workbench last weekend for twenty bucks! It was made in High Point NC and they did some fine work. It is all hardwood construction with beautiful brass plated bin pulls on the drawer and gorgeous walnut veneer. It's in fantastic shape too, I just need to remove all the packing tape gunk from the front and maybe do a wipe on varnish on the top.
It is getting hot here in NC and I am enjoying it before it gets unbearable. I have windows and doors open and fans ON.
They honey suckle is in bloom all over the place and everything is beautiful and green. We are at the end of spring, summer will come rolling in with its sweltering heat, swimming pools and ponds, sunburns, beer drinkin' on the porch, grilling, and air conditioning rattling good times.
I love the changing seasons, so glad I live where I get to experience all four!

Amen Sistah! I can't wait to move back. I miss all the four seasons.
I am actually surfing the internet looking for Doll Heads tonight! We must be on the same wavelength!
That desk is awesome. It's going to be a great workbench!
