Monday
fun at the farm
i devoured this book - the bucolic plague by josh kilmer-purcell - over the weekend.
it is a story of how a couple of city slickers wound up owning a mansion cum farm and figured out how to make it run. keep in mind that one of them is a martha stewart alum, so there is a healthy dose of ambition and perfectionism. the author is the other guy - the one on the right. while i enjoyed his voice, it did get a bit repetitive with certain themes - "how did a kid from Wisonsin end up owning a mansion?"
Overall, it was an enjoyable read with all of the pleasure and none of the work of getting a farm off the ground. i love the vicarious farming genre. deep down, though, i wonder if i have the stick-to-it-iveness to make it my life. with the grand prize this 1802 mansion, i bet i could keep my eye on the ball!
without giving too much away, it is the goats, the soap and the marketing savvy that pull them through. even if you don't plan to read the book, make sure to visit the goat cam!
creative every day month
today is the first day of art every day month. look! everyone is already posting on flickr and tweeting (#aedm2010) about their stuff.
sheesh! how'd it get here so fast? seems like a long time ago that i made that promise to myself.
well, now that i am fifteen days older, i am not sure how i will fulfill this commitment. it is my biggest desire and my scariest beast all at once! i think i will just put one foot in front of the other. besides - i have already done three creative things today.
n.b. i am choosing to interpret "art" broadly! could include some crafts, some cooking, or even a really well-written blog post!
come along with me. i will photograph what i did today for tomorrow and so on.
today's eye candy comes from the halloween photos from yesterday.
scary, huh?
how about this one?
hope you had a happy halloween!
