Our return home was truly magical, and our first Christmas here has been wonderful!….complete with a powdered sugar dusting of snow on Christmas Eve! This is not my house, but a well known inn in our little town…. photo taken by Mark Cappitella<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We’ve seen lots of family and friends, and I’ve slept in my ‘cloud bed’ which I dearly miss whenever I’m away from home. \u00a0Rob and Chris have joined me in the kitchen cooking and baking some of our favorite recipes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And Santa brought me a wonderful surprise! \u00a0A beautiful painting done by a tapestry weaver who feels like a friend even though we’ve never met in person. \u00a0I’ve followed her blog for years, and we’ve emailed over several years, so I feel like I know her. \u00a0I’m talking about Kathy Spoering<\/a> who maintains a wonderful website on top of painting and weaving such beautiful images. \u00a0She’s a very talented woman, and I’m so happy to have one of her paintings. \u00a0I’m going to put it in my bedroom where I’ll see it every morning when I wake up! \u00a0(At least for the next 10 days or so before we head back to our life on board Pandora<\/em>!)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Seeing this painting each morning makes me so happy! \u00a0A great start to the day. \u00a0Kathy’s other offerings are in her etsy shop Yellow Dog Tapestries.<\/a><\/p>\n

There has been a bit too much celebrating to spend any time in my studio (except to hunt for things and realize how much re-organizing lies in my future). \u00a0Today I will finally spend a day working on my pear tapestry. \u00a0Can’t ask for a better day, with the threat of coming snow and plenty of good food in the house!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
