"Finding much life and beauty among the ordinary things of our day"... 10 photos over 10 hours - a snapshot of the beauty in my sometimes-ordinary-sometimes-hectic- sometimes-overwhelming-sometimes-good-sometimes-bad-but-always-filled-with-love life.

Monkey See; Monkey Do

I was just monkeying around the kitchen... I had some dough leftover from baking dinner rolls and cinnamon buns (yeah - it was alot of dough!) and I had seen this idea from the Pioneer Woman previously.

I'm a mother. I work but I'm on leave at the moment. I'm a crafter, but I just make things not really create things. I bake. I cook. And right now, I'm confused.

Add to that a few jumpers and a couple of cardigans and that's my wardrobe. No more "smart casual"; no more "office-wear"; no more "formal wear" or "going-out on the town wear". I think I donated my personality to good will alongside my c...
