Photoshop Love

It’s been so long, that I almost forgot how much I enjoy hours spent in Photoshop with an idea and my tablet. Today, thanks to some serious napping on the part of the D, I was able to spend a few hours playing around in PS. I’ve realized a few things during this mini sabbatical.

Random Worldwide Dancing

Sometimes it’s good to just enjoy something for what it is. People who don’t know each other laughing and dancing all over the world.

Lunch For Tiny Men

The Dooz’s favorite lunch: Quinoa with spinach, tofu, mild onion (like Walla Wallas) and a little sweet potato or squash. Prepare the quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) in advance.

Freaky Friday

It’s not Friday anymore and I’m not superstitious, but I do enjoy blaming any abnormality on Friday the 13th when I can. For example: a friend and I drove to a fabric store at lunch for a 10 minute peruse of their selection. I found some fantastic vinyl backed fabric (to use for an all [...]
