WATER MANTLE

WATER MANTLE

Coronado Cays, CA
stained glass, river rock, mirror

This mosaic is a subtle accent to a mantle piece in a private home.

A fun and good thing I am working on...a big crazy complicated mosaic mural at Coronado High School that references over 40 novels!

The weather is starting to cool, and I'm finding my bread-baking rhythm once more.

I just love a cat in a onsie! 😻🦄🐈‍⬛🐾 Tuuli is almost healed from surgery. Later, I'll tell you all about his scary condition (FIP, look it up 😳). We are working very hard to save this baby. #tuulithebabykittykat

Cooking and eating as a way to counter my grief. Gaby and I loved to cook and eat together. Food was a big part of our friendship!

The most magical person I have ever known is gone. I'm gutted.

Palak tofu, dal and brown rice. Another perfect meal!

He's just so precious in his bespoke onsie with ombre fade. Like a newborn, all drugged up. #tuulithebabykittykat

Creamy corn soup, from a recipe I saw in @nytimescooking today. Delish! I used garden corn and basil.

My sweet boy, still recovering from his big procedure. #tuulithebabykittykat

Can you tell that I am in Los Angeles? Where one can enjoy a charcoal-oat iced latte. It has been 20 years since I lived in this kooky town. 😀 #echopark

Me yesterday, doing my best to feel some joy while the world crumbles around me. Thank you @kellybone for the pic and the date!

Pray for baby Tuuli. He has some health problems and is currently in surgery. The hospital staff texted me this sweet pic and message: "Good morning mom! Just wanted to let you know that I’m doing good. The surgery girls are taking good care of me. Giving me all the attention and love, but all I want to do is wander all around the hospital. My surgeon said she will be calling you after I wake up after surgery. Love you mom 💕" I gotta say that so far, I feel like he's in good hands. #tuulithebabykittykat @vca_asg_san_diego

This might seem small but it feels big. Today I finish four months of wearing clear aligners because I wanted to reel in my drifting teeth. I am happy with the results and feeling good about my smile for the first time in years! 😁 I appreciate all those people along the road who told me that they liked my gappy teeth, but this was the right thing for me to do, for myself. I can't believe it only took 4 months! #smiledirectclub

Hey hey, my weekly mosaic class is back! Several spots still available. Starting this coming Tuesday, join me for a 6 week course on the basics of mosaic art at Coronado Adult Education, located on the campus of Coronado High. See you there! 😘

I learned about a dish yesterday called Pappa al Pomodoro. It's a delicious Tuscan bread and tomato soup. Serious comfort food which I seriously needed after seriously rotten day. We used garden tomatoes and basil and homemade bread of course. I gotta say that Italian food is my favorite food. Paired with my classic creamy hemp seed kale salad.
