damn, it's hot!

last year at (about) this time, we had snow: not today, though.

butterfly

everyone must be thinking of spring!

just sold this one-of -a kind butterfly brooch in my etsy shop!

loon-ey!

i loved her jewelry first, then i met stephney wallace at the downtown holiday market, and now i love her too! stephney lives in the artistic mecca known as baltimore, one of my favorite cities in the world and home to the maryland institute, college of art (one of my alma maters). i was watching loons fly and dive on the potomac river last week, so this pendant caught my eye this cool morning while dreaming of spring migration.

spring!

finally! spring is here! it feels more like summer though, at 75° here in washington, dc!

so, here we are on the first day of meteorological spring with the first plow-able snow of the year bearing down on the washington, dc metro area. i am not a fan of snow!
