Favourite Things

Calming

A perfect orange on a white plate

A hot cup of tea in the afternoon

A new shipment of art supplies

A great salad and a glass of red

The very beginnings of a new painting.....

And last but not least my new "most"  favourite thing is Juliet's Room.

Amazing organic products by herbalist Stacelynn Caughlan from Vancouver, B.C.

I haven't tried the entire line but so far these three are my absolute favourites.  Every ingredient is listed so you know exactly what your getting which is a nice change from all the other products out there in which you can't even pronounce half the chemicals they contain.

And.....they feel amazing on your skin....

The last few days I've been fighting off the cold that my youngest daughter had last week.  I've got a sore throat and earache with only the threat of congestion.  I've been drinking lots of tea, eating well (chicken soup), popping vitamins and resting.  This is not the week I had planned on having seeing that Images is right around the corner but "the best laid plans.... and all that stuff".   


Was listening to Robert Plant this morning been interviewed on Q with Jian Ghomeshi while I did up the dishes this morning.  Interesting guy but I'm not too crazy about the new album which is entitled "Band of Joy" but that's just me.  Rolling Stone gave it a favourable review so what do I know.  


Going to try and wrap a few things up in the studio now and then maybe a small nap although I did sleep 10 hours last night I'm still kind of tired..........
