mmm....there it is. so lovely. thank you inspirationals., originally uploaded by sproutgirl74.

...and here are my latest inspirationals. love me some flickr quilt. i'll be making a din din of pasta with pumpkin sage sauce & enjoying a wee glass of white wine this evening. spent all day with my 2 sprout interns - and tell me again why i haven't employed interns before?? (oh right, because they go to school during the school year too!) but how awesome is this...come by at 10am, stamp, sticker, cut, paste sprout studio madness for a few hours while chatting high school girlie talk and eating homemade pumpkin bread & tea (courtesy of sprout mistress herself). then, off for a very european 2+ hour lunch at outside italian restaurant piccino in the neighborhood with amazing blue bottle mocha's to send us on our way. back to sprout headquarters for more stamping, stuffing, boxing, stickering madness...send interns off with trade sprout jewelry of their choice. successful day yes? oh yes! :) i'll be having them over again soon i'm sure!

self portrait day

self portrait saturday, originally uploaded by sproutgirl74.

just saying a quickie hello...i want to be nappy napping like said dog-dog dixie loo below...i still think it kinda quizzical that it remains in the 60's in SF during the summer sometimes. i don't like heat & humidity like back in southeastern virginia, lord knows i wilt, but sometimes a little bit more warmy sun would be nice...

friday is the last day of school for me - hoorah! i'm busy busy busy with closing down everything for the summer, plus gearing up for renegade craft in brooklyn (i'm mailing everything to brooklyn - my bff is running my booth!) and for RCF SF too...and then some leisurely lolling time...

(but really, when will my brain ever stop whirring with ideas for *this great idea* and an idea for *this book to read* and an idea for *this art thing to pursue* and an idea for *this yummy thing to try to make* and an idea for...you get the idea...)

anyone see the new "sex & the city" movie yet? i have a girlie day next saturday planned with pedi's, dinner, vino, and *the* movie - sooo fun. i shamelessly love that series. and i've heard rave reviews on the movie! yay!

happy monday!
