The white ones are jumbo eggs from Wegmans. My friend Liza has some crazy chickens that just started to lay eggs, so they are giving them away to everyone.

I made a new sketchbook
First you make a small quilt for the cover. I like it to wrap around the page block.
The inaugural painting is the Poughkeepsie train station.
I sewed the signatures in using a 9-hole pamphlet stitch.
Below is the front cover when the book is closed. I got the fabric from Spoonflower, and the fruit print is by one of my fave artists, Ohn Mar Win.
Outdoor evening nibbles and drinks
Anna is housesitting and I went to visit. We sat outside and ate nibbles and had cocktails.
We were under a wisteria canopy.

I Met Joe in Poughkeepsie
We had a great visit together. I met him at the train station.
We were tourists at Storm King Art Center, DIA Beacon, and Eleanor Roosevelt's home at Val-Kill. We had good food and laughed a lot.
New toilet paper shipment from Who Gives a Crap
This is really nice bamboo paper. No trees were sacrificed to wipe my bum.

It's been a busy week.
Draw with Danny Gregory (online) on Thursday turned out to be amusing. I was not in the zone.
Zoo Brew with Shizuka, Jon. and Matt. We saw these guys, wolves, a tiger, a noisy lion, a zebra and some sea lions. Lots of the animals were indoors, I think because it was so hot outside.
They must have had a good reason for this.
I fell off the vegetarian wagon and had some goulash. My mouth liked it but my body didn't.

Potluck to celebrate Hardy's first year in their house.
Last year, in the middle of Covid, we helped them move and clean, and get their first house ready.
Ryoma was 10 months old.

This is Liza's project. The birch bark is from Russia, and the moss and lichens are from Maine.
