to yummy goodness...

Sit and relax with a DOZEN donuts?

oink, oink (snort) that is soooooo gluttono... I mean... uh... hi Sylvia, my dearest friend and sister. What I meant to say (now that I think about it), is sure, what a better way to relax, settle your nerves (and clean out the colon) then to sit down with a full box of yummy, warm, glazed Krispy Kreme donuts? I can hardly think of anything better (not the truth). AND just in case anyone's counting, that would be 2400 calories per box. Enjoy!

seabricks...

Seldom, if ever, do you see a brick lined beachfront.

Thousands and thousands of red bricks; corners smoothed by four plus years of constant tide, have settled in to make this stretch of beach one of the most awe-inspiring places I've seen.

Out of devastation came beauty.

I genuinely try to see beauty in the most simple of things. Success is not always 100%, but I AM purposeful in my endeavor. I want to see with my heart as well as my eyes. Living any other way is not an option.

How are your eyes and heart today?

the unexpected ...

What is value?

I sent an email the other day that included the top photo and this explanation:

I bought an ugly pic at the thrift shop because I wanted the frame. When I took it apart this is what was on the back of it.

Having just downloaded a new batch of "frames and textures" I really sent the picture out to share my excitement at achieving "the look" I was going for. The responses were quite unexpected.

Oh my goodness...I love that pic.

What a treasure...that is very awesome.

I LOVE that, I hope you're keeping it...it's awesome... weird what some people will cover up.

That's interesting...I wonder if there is any money behind it.

That's very nice.

Then I started thinking; what is value?

The actual photo, sans textures and beefed-up-frame, is plain and uninteresting. I doubt all the added features gave the photo it's new value. Was it the mystery?

-Why was the photo hidden behind the canvas?
-What caused those letters to imprint on the photo?
-Who put it there?
-How old is it?

What is value? I'll continue to seriously ponder this question.

Thank you to my friends for playing . And no, there was no money behind it. :)
