a little this, a little that

can she make a cherry pie?

like many of you,
summer
is a busy time
for me.
especially since
it is my last
field season
for my phd
(both a relief
& very scary).

in between
daytime
caterpillar collecting,
intern-managing,
&
nighttime
moth collecting
i have had
a little time
to do
this and that.

spin green
drop-spinning classes.
more on sew green...

july: cupcake tasting
birthday
cupcake tasting
around town...

i have a dream
sight-seeing
with my sister
(she was in town
for my birthday)...

moth collecting with my siblings
taking my siblings
moth collecting...

bee installation
beautiful birthday
cut-out installation
by my brother
(inspired by
fruitless fall).

july: summer roll-making
4th of july
summer roll making...

july: peach pie making
and
pie-making.

happy belated 4th!

what have you
been up to?

more soon,
xo

Whoa---you must be busy if we haven't heard from you in a month.

Hope all is going well on your side of the world! I was in VT for a month and letterboxed like mad and got several other artists into it.

Maybe we'll meet up on the West coast again since Johnny Sidecar has made his move?

Take care,
E.
