Painting with friends

These kids love to paint. We're using pan gouache colors that are heavily pigmented. None of those watery kid paints for us!

I love Miss Clayton's new paints

Something about all those yummy colors together makes me want to ditch the lesson plans and paint.

We love the colors of our skin!

We've been experimenting with slime

Cooking with Mr. Darrow's class

Mr. Darrow was making a dessert called Striped Delight. It has a crushed Oreo crust, and layers of cream cheese, chocolate pudding, and cool whip.

To the person who hit my driver's side mirror.

I found a note on my windshield saying, "I hit your mirror."

She stayed in touch and sent me a check after I texted her a photo of the bill. 

Thank you, you one in a million driver.

I took a painting workshop

What a poser!

I couldn't believe it let me get this close!
