A Summer Celebration Giveaway!!

Disney artist James Coleman

I'm going to try to two finger type just as fast as my two little index fingers will let me ? Why noooo I never did learn how to type, I always had someone I bartered with in college, then I had secretaries, I even managed to get through a PhD program without being able to type :) Heck I'm probably the only one in my program that actually wrote her dissertation out in pencil on legal tablets. :)

Yikes how did I managed to get so far out in left field here??? Oh the rapid 2 finger typing is because I want to pass on this cool giveaway news. Hopefully before the next set of rolling thunder hits and I have to unplug my "pooter" or God forbid we loss our power!!! :( No power means no air, no fans, and one really cranky WOMAN!

Cindy at Cindy's Art & Soul is having her last Summer Celebration giveaway!!! And she has let out all the stops!! She is giving away a 50$ gift certificate to any of her stores or website :) I think you guys all need to head right on over and leave her a post and while you are there visit her blog and check out her website and stores!!

If the Rain Gods are not to angry tomorrow I have another little recipe to share with you :) Another great way to tarnish metal without toxic fumes :)

Got to run there are 6 dogs (yep Pancho is still camping out here) all under our legs with their tails hanging down. It can only mean one thing Thunder&Lightening :(

Have a most audacious today or tomorrow depending on where in the world you are ;)

The Velveteen Rabbit

What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"
"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."
"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.
"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?"
"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
