haha! Nicole, I asked because I remembered some contention a few months back about a photo being posted that wasn't taken by the person who posted it. :p I love your marble-top table! I have two rectangular marble slabs that I picked up at a marble quarry in Vermont many years ago. I'd love to make one into a table top, but I don't do woodworking to custom-make the base. lol! FWIW, a marble slab is great for rolling pie crusts and making candy (like pouring out caramels and fudge) because it stays cold better than other surfaces. :) Thanks for the kudos on the basket/photo! I didn't take the photo though, so I'll probably be in trouble. lol! and if you look really close at the top of the basket, to the right of the handle, you'll see that the border wasn't finished perfectly. The willow got a little too stiff and started to peel and crimp so I just needed to get it done asap. ;o)

Hi Sadie!! This is Roxie our neighbour's son's pup last year. I fell in love with her instantly and would take her on a walk when he came to visit his mom. I brought her home to take some pics! LOL

When I was in the Sierras last month I stayed in a friend's RV three nights. The next RV over was a permanent resident/employee of the campground. As such, they built trust with some of the local wildlife. This fawn, its sibling and mother spent every night sleeping in their yard.

Carriage ride in Cairo. (for a little extra bakeesh, he let me hold the reins) Igmd, one doesn't see grasshoppers like you used to even where I live in the country. I remember the big guys in your photo, they would spit "tobacco" on you!
