Weekly Challenge: Fun…

The challenge this week is to share something fun.

Seeing the musical comedy ‘Something Rotten’ in NYC last January was definitely one of the most fun plays ever..  It WAS the funniest musical written in the past five centuries and it was fun, fun, fun.

August 2nd 2016 is National Coloring Book Day

I LOVE to color, long before it was a trendy thing to do I was coloring.

My favorite coloring book author is Judy Clement Wall. Here are some snippets from pictures of hers I’ve colored.

Cherry On Top…

Weekly prompt: The cherry on top. The icing on the cake. Or, as the straightforward folks at Oxford Dictionaries explain it, “a desirable feature perceived as the finishing touch to something that is already very good.”

Show us the detail that made a good experience a truly transcendent one — let’s celebrate the cherries on top!

This sign for ba-da bing cherries from New Jersey, although not icing on a cake,  made my day by making me smile..:)

Weekly Challenge: Details…

For this week’s challenge, try to look past the big picture and take a more intimate approach. Zoom in on details in unexpected places — it can be something from the natural world, or it can be human-made.

My daughter Deb is a knitter and one of the things she enjoys knitting are shawls.  The patterns are so intricate and detailed, I am always in awe of how beautiful they are, and how talented she is 🙂

Weekly Challenge: Look Up…

For this week’s challenge, take a moment to look up. Whether it’s the fan above your head at work, your bedroom ceiling, or the night sky, what do you see? Is it familiar? Or does it show you a new perspective on your surroundings?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I love the architecture of New York City and even though I have many photos looking up at the tops of buildings I think this one of the Chrysler Building might be one of my favorites.  I happen to look at just the right time as the sun was hitting the windows near the top of this beautiful art deco building.
