Where's the sunshine?

It's a chilly cloudy weekend and we're holed up inside with the fire on. I had hoped to plant my garden this weekend, but I'd sooner be out doing it when the sun is shining. I'm not planting anything fancy, just things I know I can grow easily - carrots, peas, beans and some tomatoes. Don't ask my why but I can grow tomatoes. My potatoes absolutely suck, but the tomatoes are great.

I am almost finished my first surprise auction that I did awhile back and I am so excited about it. My customer Jade had some awesome ideas and I am proud of myself because it really pushed me to do something a little more challenging. I'll post pictures soon!

I have been practicing with my camera every day or two, and when I'm outside, they're not too bad. The kids hate it when I play Mamarazzi. This is one of the pictures that I am really happy with:

It was one of my fastest, easiest shoots with her majesty. She didn't have time to get impatient with me, and it was pretty spur of the moment, with no expectations or pressure. I have the skirt and top listed on Etsy.

I am trying to diversify things with my business a little and am sending some things to a consignment shop close to here to see how it does. I've not done much locally so it'll be interesting. If you are someone interested in wholesaling some of my products, please drop me a line.
