I knew someone once...

..who said the funniest things..

Like...You can't give me pickles and peanut butter and expect me to make a picnic...





Yeaaahh..me neither.

Or..you're spending so much time tuning the fiddle you miss the symphony..


OK, well, I can see what this one means...

Which is what I seem to be doing a lot of..not having pickle and peanut butter picnics..but tuning my fiddle.

...AND missing the symphony..or at least time in the art room to play...

Can't craft 'cos the mess..clean the mess and then don't want to mess it up by... crafting..

So I spent the entire day tuning the fiddle, I guess..

And you've all seen the magazine "W here Women Create" right?

Well, this is "Where This Woman Creates" (or will some day..)..

..and everyone who sees it says "Oh, this is so organized!"

But the truth be known, I can rarely find anything. When I need it. Then I find it... after I've bought another, 'because, well.. I needed it.

Such is life..and ain't is sweet :-)

Now, Monday is almost upon us , so have yourself a pickle-peanut-butter-picnic kind of day, OK?

And don't tune your fiddle and miss anything...

Now I know where you put all that stuff you get at yard sales. It looks like a fun room. Can I come and play?I'm a fiddler too.

I've never seen your craft room before...I love it. You've got some fun stuff in there! Get in there and enjoy the symphony! Sometimes, when I can't remember where everything is, I take a few minutes, before I start creating, and meander through drawers and cupboards to remind myself where things are. Give it a try!

Wow, love the space. Okay, get a label maker and go to town, then you will be able to find stuff... Hey Mr. B, how's that pickle and p.b. sandwich?????

Hi Utah Grammie,
Thanks for your comment again on my blog. The crocodiles you saw so far in my videos were fresh-water crocs. They are not carnivores and do not attack people unless they're threatened. However in future films you'll see salt-water crocodiles and they DO attack people if they're hungry. In fact on my last film you'll be seeing one heading straight for our boat. I just have to wait until Diane catches up with her blog.
Cheers,
Bill

I love your craft room! I need to seriously give mine a re-do this winter when I have more time. Right now it's borderline dungeon. Need bright, inspiring colors!
Have a great week!

Great craft room !
Better yet, PB & pickles. Years ago a friend and I were baby sitting and it got to be very late and we were starving. All we could find was PB& pickles. We were disappointed, but dug in and love them together. To this day, we still like them that way.
I'm hungry now so maybe I should go looking......
Nice post!

I'm to the point where I just walk in my craft room, stop, and then turn around and walk out! : ) Yours looks like a fun room!

Wanna see what I've been up to ??
