So it's a bit difficult to indulge flaneur-ly ways. Walking on the treadmill and watching a Palin documentary doesn't exactly cut it (although it's exercise and that is a GOOD thing and Palin's documentaries are brilliant).

It Raining Cats & Dogs

By the way here is the explanation from phrases org of the origin of the phrase and an analytical debunking of other claimed origins.

So Wot's Up in Studio Jafabrit
Apart from the continuation of my embroidery series
Drawing with thread, based on a left handed drawing in my sketchbook

a lot of pondering

Meanwhile at Nancy's Mr.Plato Gets It

Felted that is lol!
We worked on him 2 hours yesterday and each of us got a tiny portion done. Gluing on bits of felt in a mosaic style is rather more time consuming than we expected, but it's fun to work on him together. Hopefully he will make his debut at the Radical Craft Show Nancy and I are curating for the Yellow Springs Arts Council.


Well off to Maharaja's for lunch today
Curry Here I Come
