"If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased." ~ Katharine Hepburn

With our annual Kentucky Derby party this afternoon, and a trip to Vermont tomorrow, I decided that this is a perfect time for one of my "Favorites" lists! I do love to troll the web for interesting bits of information. I realize that what I find interesting may not resonate with everyone, so pick and choose!

"I am an artisan. I only became an artist when people watch what I do. That is when it becomes art." ~ Rhys Ifans




I have used my blog several times over these past few years to promote upcoming episodes of Craft in America, and I am taking the opportunity once again. This Friday, May 2nd, Episode XII, "Industry" will air on your local PBS station. 

I love, love, love this series. When I think of some of my travels this winter and of all of the beautifully handcrafted works that I have seen, I am reminded anew of the creativity and energy of the crafts-people of our country. If you are new to the series, you can view any of the previous episodes online. You will also find additional footage and information beyond what is seen on TV.

Enjoy the preview of "Industry":

"Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the idle seashore of the mind" ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Originally, I had planned to show you several pictures that I took of our time on Perdido Key in Florida's panhandle.  I have decided that this one sums it up nicely! I don't think that I really even need to use words to describe the rest and relaxation that we enjoyed during our week and a half there.
Ahhhhhhhhhh.............
