Christening the New Smoker
May, 2012

Last year, my first paycheck from FriendFinder helped me purchase a new gas grill.  I noticed when I smoked my turkey on Thanskgiving, the turkey barely fit, so I knew a 2012 goal would be a larger smoker.

Love this....

This really doesn't need a story to it, does it?

The world is his pillow

Brutus's favorite hobby is to eat followed closely by laying around.  He spends most of his days on the living room couch with his head resting on a large stuffed cat I used to have at work on my cabinet. 

A 3D Panel

I've been at it again - making more glass panels.  This one is particularly interesting as I have done the suspension parts of the bridge (cables) with copper wire and super thin copper rods.

I was at my mom's and took the picture on the right and looked at that and decided that needed to be done in glass.  It's done except for the wooden frame.

Thoughtful Photo

I was visiting my mom last weekend and took this photo.  I am going to make a glass panel of this photo for her birthday.

I'm just a glass machine

Ever since being laid off a month ago, I have made a LOT of glass projects.  My mosaiac lighthouse table, followed by a mosaiac lighthouse panel to match.  Then wine and cheese which is so popular, I made this one for a friend and have one more to make for my cousin.

Mosaiac in Progress

I bought an end table at a yard sale last summer and am finally getting around to doing my magic with it.  I have to go get some square tile to go around the edges of it, then fill in with glass scraps, let that dry, then do my grout.  It'll be a be beautiful conversation piece in my living room.

Farewell, Cranberry Splash...
January, 2012

I LOVE Sierra Mist's Cranberry Splash.  Problem is, it only is available 4 months out of the year.  So today I took my husband's advice and asked if there was any left - there were some liters out on the floor but non-diet.  The guy asked me how many and I'd say as many as he had unless it was 40 or 50.

Way back in 1996, a website was born - this one!  Now it's become my primary 'sandox.'  I'm a web developer and this is where I come to play.  The site has become quite a jQuery playground lately - not so apparent to the viewer, but my management system that runs in the back is going largely to a JavaScript GUI.
