What she does....

My sweetheart Jamie and I are at the Marion County Fairgrounds pretty much everyday this week as part of the 9 day fair. We will be based in the Peaceful Grounds Pavillion where Jamie will be making her art everyday for people to watch. I caught this shot this afternoon...this little girl was mesmerized as she watched her create. I was amazed by how intensely she watched, not distracted by any other noise or attraction around her (Jamie too). Together they followed the board as Jamie carved and it felt right...like the art that she was creating was mesmerizing and no doubt calming to her little heart . It was beautiful and I felt proud of my love, for doing what she loves and drawing people who love what she does...it's a yummy circle of love. 


Come say hi if you are coming out to the Fair this week.

I've got worms....

It's true....and it's probably the weirdest thing I've ever purchased. Well...almost. 

My worms, all 2000 of them, arrived by mail today. I was all worried for them traveling via the postie but I opened the bag and there they were..all wriggly and shit. They look pretty awesome...and I felt very proud as I threw them on top of the new house I had made for them. They burrowed down instantly and I imagined them, all hungry and parched from their trip, enjoying the sweet veggies, banana peels, peet moss, top soil and paper nest I made for them. 

It's weird because I want to keep checking them but I know that's not what they need. They need some alone time now. Some time to check out their surroundings, eat a little and then get to mating!!!

I wonder if people grow up wanting to be professional worm farmers?
