Many Moods of Queen Anne





Queen Anne's Lace is one of my favorite summer things. Here are some shots from a walk we took in the meadow last evening before dinner. I've been so busy with guests and gardening I have not had time to blog or Flickr for a few weeks. But now I'm back, and I will post some Maine summer shots for the next few days.

Spring Roll Lessons





Nanako and Debi taught us how to make spring rolls the other night. It's what I asked them to give me for my birthday. Nanako does the chopping and other prep and Debi does the rolling. We had shrimp as an appetizer. The spring rolls were so fresh and good, and now I think I can do them myself.

Cafe Sketchbook



Here are some more cafe sketches. I've decided that I will just take them as the opportunity to capture a moment even if people move so fast I can only get a qick impression. People are so absorbed and busy in this cafe. They work on their computers, run in to get coffee, chat with friends they meet. It's good because they are so busy they don't notice I'm watching them and drawing. I do wish I could do this all day long. I love gesture.
