I love to make sun tea
on my front porch
but today it's more like "cloud tea"
the sun is trying hard to break through the marine layer
and my tea is just taking a little bit longer to brew
some things take a little while to "brew" don't they?
I've been obsessing over the "oil spill animals"
and in the back of my mind wondering
"where am I going with this?"
so far, it's just a sketchbook at home:
for my kids,
my family,
my friends who know me.
I have one more page to do and it's full
- but is it?
one of my blogger friends (Freebird) turned me onto a special blog:
it's someplace to go with this obsession
it's just atc's
but they're special atc's
each one raises $10
for
and
maybe it's something you'd like to do?
I know you guys and how creative you are
it's just a thought
a thought to let brew for a bit

oh so funny I was going to tell you about ripple too!! it is a great idea! love your cloudy tea!! and so perfect for the holiday!!
Your Tea always looks interesting Kimmie ! Thanks for the link - I'll have a look.
I had a few people in this afternoon for a quick meeting about the village festival so made pot of tea & got out the fine bone china cups saucers - lovely !
i just made some sun tea myself and THEN the clouds rolled in. Thanks for the link. that's a nice site.
Wow, great minds and all! Had I known, I would not have made mine. But, I am glad I did, because I am really enjoying the blueberry. Hope yours doesn't take too long to "cook." Mine took about four hours to turn that lovely dark red I got before I called it done. I'm off to visit Ripple. Have a very happy Tea Tuesday.
Your tea looks very interesting Kimmie...I hope you soon get the sunshine to go with it :-)
I think you need more pages in your sketchbook...don't stop; your paintings are very precious.
Thanks, Kimmie, for the link to ripple. I just posted it on FB and will be ordered a few sketches.
I hope you turn you works into a book.
It would have been cloud tea here too...
If you ever decide to (hmm, I'm searching for the right word here) market/go public with/sell copies of your sketchbook or portions thereof, I'd be right at the head of the line.
Best,
Bonnie
