Gelf! The furry little elf who likes to pull pranks around the Holiday

cream? A total Gelf move! Shampoo dyed green with food coloring? Gelf
is just helping bring out your inner Grinch! What is in the gift boxes
you ask??? Hot homemade Guinea Pig droppings of course! No need to write a thank you note.

In my late teens, I was lucky enough to see his work in person during a visit to an art museum. The size of canvas used is something I didn't expect. The photos of his paintings in artbooks at the time didn't convey the scale or beauty of his work. Still one of my favorite painters. <br /> <p></p>Heather Sellershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15908507738969807801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5602228268447774521.post-73519069003674814352022-09-02T09:32:00.003-07:002022-09-02T09:32:42.615-07:00Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice!<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOmgAMpORgfQd6OegoIBC4Yg39EKt68ku3J_uV2L2-VEZBWXqSRSjyTSuGdDcTS5KfIYRh4-VLhD61fdxRLxnv4Y0pmH57Bq0cwr99Fudmjbb8d8s3dKSKsaYHOokwctOOCQ2fDfzgWphMl-F1VDBmeJbWjjeSgso9kqYiUV65EpVieD1uOgT0gsuk/s1388/Pumpkin%20Spice%20and%20Everything%20Nice%201.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1388" data-original-width="1388" height="545" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOmgAMpORgfQd6OegoIBC4Yg39EKt68ku3J_uV2L2-VEZBWXqSRSjyTSuGdDcTS5KfIYRh4-VLhD61fdxRLxnv4Y0pmH57Bq0cwr99Fudmjbb8d8s3dKSKsaYHOokwctOOCQ2fDfzgWphMl-F1VDBmeJbWjjeSgso9kqYiUV65EpVieD1uOgT0gsuk/w545-h545/Pumpkin%20Spice%20and%20Everything%20Nice%201.jpg" width="545" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><section class="layout__item directions svelte-mq22ro">

<ul class="direction-list svelte-mq22ro"><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Cut the tops off of the pumpkins in a circle... sure, this is a little messy but just pretend that you are preforming a craniotomy and making a jack-o-lantern.
</li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Quarter the pumpkins from the top down and scoop out the seeds and tendrils. Feel free at this point to ignore the pumpkin's look of horror... they cannot feel anything and are just being a big, pouty baby at this point. Note: Keep seeds for pepitas if you like ;) </li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Place the pumpkin shells meat-side up on a large cookie sheet or other sided baking dish.
</li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Smear the inner surfaces of the pumpkins with fresh churned butter... like a greased pig at the county fair. The more butter, the better!!!
</li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Sprinkle the brown sugar and spices, including a small bit of salt, over the shells.
</li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until you can easily stab through the flesh with a fork. Yes, I realized this recipe is getting a bit murdery and may not be an appropriate family baking activity for children under 12. <br /></li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Let stand to cool.
</li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Gently cut away the outer skin -- This is great for compost and covering up the crime scene.
</li><li class="direction svelte-mq22ro">Puree,
mash, or process the meat to the desired consistency for the recipe
you're preparing - very smooth for a mousse, less so for a standard pie. Yum! Enjoy!!!<br /></li></ul></section></div><p></p>Heather Sellershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15908507738969807801noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5602228268447774521.post-83909595323677370552022-04-20T13:23:00.006-07:002022-04-20T13:26:42.412-07:00Ocean Inspired<div><p style="text-align: center;"> Studio work from Monday evening. </p><p style="text-align: center;"> Glass Prep:</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Ever wonder where Easter eggs come from? Push aside the preposterous idea of purple speckled chickens popping out eggs onto a conveyer belt, all while being handfed jelly beans, gummy worms, and Belgium chocolate. Nope, time to put on your big girl pants and face the truth. Say hello to Easter Bonnie **bawk, bawk** </div>

Looking for a longterm relationship: Don't let the rough exterior fool you, Frankie is as huggable as a patchwork quilt... stitched with love. A monster of few words, he enjoys long evening walks through the town square, playing golf during lightening storms, and tinkering in the workshop. Greatest fears: pitchforks, torches, and not finding true love.</div>
