After a couple of delightful sunny days in Tucson while shopping for the bead store; I am home to the deepening shades of white a snowstorm brings. The biggest and most snows this Seattle area has had in 70 years. We are house bound, stuck under 12 inches of snow and unable to venture far from the driveway. The snow had the discourtesy of laying itself down on solid sheets of ice. The shop has been closed 4 of the last seven days and tomorrow’s opening seems doubtful. I am not complaining, really, because I do love snow. I have knitted, beaded, painted, drew, read, cleaned up my office paperwork and baked. Baked! Cinnamon raisin bread from scratch. I don’t think I have baked bread in at least 10 years!
I have been busy though, thinking a lot of warmer summer days and the colors of that upcoming season. I made mermaid bracelets. Rather, stretchy bracelets in Colors of the Salish Sea that in my imagination I see mermaids wearing.
I also keep thinking of all the gems and beads, an abundance of treasure, that I came across in Tucson. I am busy planning and pricing for the upcoming, soon to be happening trunk show. The weather will clear, roads and driveways will be passable, treats will be bought and all will be displayed in a wonderment of adornment and jewels.
