Working on my neglected blog and some classes.

Big changes.
Getting ready to start teaching, so jewelry should have it's own page over here.(I think)

I have spent a number of hours trying to figure out the best way to get out class information,
with a few photos and all the facts.
fret. fret. fret.

The mice should have their own page, too. (I think)

Marcus punched in Great Balls of  Fire while Tilly thought about all the songs she'd heard on car radios.
At Johnny Rocket's in Valencia, California

I explored some newsletter templates, but all of them seemed to take me off to another site and make more work, even though some of them looked more elegant and cool than I look here.
fret. fret. fret.

I have finished most of the sample pieces for the classes.

I am not worried about the actual days of teaching, that is fun for me.  I am worried about presenting
the classes clearly, so the people who want to sign up know what to expect.
fret. fret. fret.

How did anyone ever figure out how to cure olives?

Tilly on the September issue

As in, on her September issue of Vogue. 

She hadn't made up her mind about what she thought of mouse ears on the model.
She had been working her way through the magazine looking for inspiration to update her look.
Tilly saw that her pink bow was showing some wear.
Now that the mice were in Lala Land, she wanted to try edgier accessories
to stand out from the rest of the talent.

Previously, living in Providence surrounded by designers and Artists had been challenging enough.
In Los Angeles, that competition is multipied by the whole entertainment industry.
New talent streams in every day from all over the country, hopeful and enterprising.
Tilly knew she had to step up her game.

She bookmarked the page for black lace with the soft white sheer dress.
She thought that black lace ears might be too literal for mice.

$1.99 eggs with pancakes and excellente picante sauce

Sharing this because of the picante sauce served on the side of my $1.99 breakfast on a Monday when I could not get my own eggs together in the morning.
