some days i'm so easily amused that it borders on pathetic ... or i see art in simple forms? i was washing lettuce for salad, and when i cut the stem end off one little head i just couldn't throw it in the compost because it was so pretty. maybe the pathetic part was when i "posed" it on top of the washed leaves and took its little picture. still couldn't discard it, so put it in a shallow dish of water and now 3 days later it's starting to grow little leaves from its center. and i still think it's cute. i think i'm trying to make up for the miserable failure to thrive flowers from the garden that i potted up and brought inside in the hope they'd keep growing and i'd have summer bloomin' all winter on the balcony under the skylight. it's just not happening...... only one of eight shows any sign of life... the gerbera daisy... and i'd be delighted if it lives!wherein you will find ramblings about fiber dyeing, spinning, knitting,... and photos (sometimes), family and friend updates, rants when i need to, lack of upper case letters, weird punctuation and freedom of expression (especially mine)! To answer the question of where did it come from... this "twisted mom/twisted sandy" thing. ...during the 90's a group of my spinning students became spinning friends, which morphed into Twisted Sisters, which evolved into calling me the Twisted Mom.

amusement?
