Do You Think I Want To Die Like This?

On Friday, Carla, Amber and I went to Denver to check out a paper and art supply store. The art supplies I wasn't too interested in as I can get a pretty good supply here in the Springs.

But paper is another story.

I'm not sure I can put into words what fine papers do for me. It's in the same category as fabric, but perhaps a notch above as I can do more with less paper than I can with fabric. I tried to take some photos of some cards I made with some of the paper. It just doesn't translate. You completely miss the texture, the weight, even the smell.



Now that I'm set up in The Flamingo Room, this is my art. And it's dangerous.



We also went to a spice store called The Savory Spice Store. Mr. Dan, our principal recommended it. It smelled wonderful. Really, really wonderful. I bought two different rubs for Don to use when he BBQs. He's trying them tonight, except it's raining so we'll see how that goes. And I bought a Mayan Cocoa mix to make my Mayan Dark Chocolate Ice Cream. It already has the peppers, cinnamon, etc. in it. It smells really, really good, too.
