46 North Farm: March 2011

http://ostmanfarm.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Seasonal Observations from a Small Farm on Oregon's North Coast. Sunday, March 20, 2011. Over a Thousand Reasons Why We Need an Elk Fence. Whenever I have doubts about my sanity at choosing farming as a career, I remember that this is the only job I have ever done where I continually loose myself in the work, coming to with a smile on my face and wishing that the sun would stay up for just another hour or so, as the ten hours I've already spent in the greenhouse just aren't quite enough. We finally got o...

art and sew: Sweet Magic

http://artandsew.blogspot.com/2010/11/wonder-of-it-all.html

A place where creativity goes to play. Saturday, November 20, 2010. Last week we went into New York to see the Radio City Rockettes Christmas Extravaganza. I've seen it about 5 times now, but Ava is finally old enough to sit through it and enjoy it, so her Mom and I took her. Ava and her adorable little friend, Hailey and Hailey's Grandmother met us there. Both of the girls were just enraptured! Plus, are they not so cute? These are just a few pictures I was able to take without completely annoying the p...

A place where creativity goes to play. Saturday, March 12, 2011. Fake spring is good enough for me! This is what happened: I saw a sign saying that the Garden show was coming up at my local grocery store. Deciding I would just check it out while picking up a few odds and ends, I stumbled (literally) into this in the back room! Outside it is still muddy, gray and brown and everything is dirty. Aaaagh! I am so tired of living in a colorless world! Not to mention, THIS. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

art and sew: Visiting Vermont part 2

http://artandsew.blogspot.com/2010/10/visiting-vermont-part-2.html

A place where creativity goes to play. Wednesday, October 27, 2010. Visiting Vermont part 2. First of all, let me introduce you to the welcoming committee:. These lovely folks were all around on the roadways, waving and looking oh, so rustic and friendly. During leaf season, it's all about the tourists and Vermonters who are ordinarily very independent and reserved go all out to welcome sundry sources of their annual income. Here are some of the cows we saw:. On Saturday night, we went to Barnes and Nobl...

art and sew: February 2010

http://artandsew.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

A place where creativity goes to play. Sunday, February 21, 2010. It goes in the mail tomorrow! This one I made for my daughter, Leila. She's learning to be a cook (actually she is a very good one already.) She works in a Hospice cooking for the residents and their families and she makes wonderful things especially for them; whatever they want is just what they get! Wednesday, February 17, 2010. The Nest Pretty Thing. OK, you see this little birdie? She makes these and wonderful jewelry, paper items and ...

art and sew: Visiting Vermont, part I

http://artandsew.blogspot.com/2010/10/visiting-vermont-part-i.html

A place where creativity goes to play. Monday, October 18, 2010. Visiting Vermont, part I. I went visiting Vermont recently because I return there for dental work from time to time. (Long story.). While there were we went to Shelburne Farms. As we got to the end of the path, there were these hand carved totems, which I hadn't seen before. Vermont is full of interesting artisans who do things like this. I don't know why they have the body cavities, but I suspect that they "sing" on windy days. There were ...

http://artandsew.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html

A place where creativity goes to play. Friday, July 23, 2010. Earlier this summer my husband and I went to Portsmouth, NH during our yearly vacation to Rye Beach. I took a few snapshots of this really adorable town to share. One thing I really love about the downtown area is that they are completely flower happy. I have never seen so many beautiful window boxes and planters! Well, actually Carmel-by-the-Sea is pretty obsessed with flowers, as well.). This little cutie was parked on the street! You can ev...

A place where creativity goes to play. Sunday, March 28, 2010. As promised, here is the remaining J.D. in the household: Hello Kitty, himself. What, you say? He is supposed to be white and probably female, to boot? Well, here's the lowdown.when we moved into our home he was roaming the neighborhood. He isn't very big, but he stood his ground when our big boy Kirby challenged him in the driveway one day. I had to admire his determination. And that's how he ended up with the name. He is a good example of h...
