Lotions & Portions


I sometimes gaze longingly at cosmetic bottles in shops.
One of them just might contain the perfect elixir
that will fix my age or skin or hair.
The prettier the bottle, the more promise it holds.
While certain natural lotions & potions help me to take care of my physical self,
I'm allergic to most chemical scents & products...
Yet, & yet, I still sometimes gaze longingly...

Remember Ponce de Léon?

February Thoughts Turn to Travel


The Valentine Stuff is put away for another year (below), 
& the February light sparks me out of my frozen January frame of mind & body.
Thoughts turn to travel & movement. 
I have 3 favorite cities to which I LOVE to return (especially off season in March). 
I've posed the question to myself: "But what new places are there?" 
Dear Reader, I would love to hear YOUR answers for your favorite travel destinations.

Illustrated Alphabet Part 2: J through N

Continuation of my Alphabet Storyboard (draft). 
No time for perfectionism, today. Ack!!
But: Get it done! Finish.
Later there will be time for tweaks & edits &  final versions.
At this stage, other words are popping up,
so I've started keeping a list. 
They might come in handy, who knows? 
In fact, whole other series are popping up: plants...animals...doudou's...
...or how about a Polish alphabet, or an adjective alphabet...
or one of Maine or of art words...or a multi-word alphabet with scenes...

HOWEVER, using the French expression, 
"Revenons à nos moutons" (let's return to our sheep, or get back to the subject), 
I am determined to see THIS alphabet through to Z.
 Knowing it's a rough draft, Dear Visitors, 
I wonder again if you have any favorites from "j" to "n"...
