It's Raining, What Now?

8/19/2015

A few weeks ago we visited friends on the lake . . . it rained. So we shifted gears, played cards, and we had a blast. We cooked, we ate, and we laughed . . . a lot. It may not have been the weekend we planned, but it was fun.

Our forecast for this weekend calls for rain again. If it's raining (or not) where you are, challenge yourself with some friendly competition or to try something new:

1) Plan ahead and stir up some goodness. Visit your local farmer's market and buy something you're not familiar with (collard greens, squash, eggplant?), or grab some in-season fruit (peaches maybe, or blueberries), find a recipe, and stir up some goodness.

2) Board games and cards.
Get a competition on and see how well you do. Win, and you may be challenged to a rematch.

Pastime: Tabletop Checkers

7/1/2014

Picture
A diagonal jump. When the snow finally melted earlier this spring, we were left with a picnic table that had lost its luster. Peeling paint and looking a bit ragged, it needed a new look.

At first I thought of just splashing on a new coat of paint, but then had the idea of painting a check pattern, or a geometric design, like a permanent tablecloth. Checks led to checkerboard and it became a combination of both. This is the initial sketch. The base coat is ready, and the next step is to watch for a favorable forecast - sunny and dry, with no chance of rain. Stay tuned . . .
