My Favorite Thing to Eat -- Daily 3 pm coffee and cookie break

 I always learn something new making collages for our challenges. So, in this case I found my favorite cookie (chocolate chip) and a nice steaming cup of coffee. But how to present? I used an early Greek sculpture and noticed the rod sticking out of her head -- perfect for representing thoughts of that cookie! Here is what I found on the internet about "basket carriers" in ancient Greece:

Canephorae were young, unmarried women in ancient Greece who carried baskets of sacred objects on their heads during religious festivals. The word canephorae comes from the Greek word kanēphoroi, which means "basket carriers".

P.S. Her expression is described as a smile revealing her bliss and that is exactly how I feel when I am eating my favorite thing.

My Favourite Things To Eat.....................Don't Play With Your Food!

“My Favourite Things to Eat”

 I like a lot of different foods. (Which I can’t find any images of for collaging)

But if I see an advert for cornflakes I get a terrible urge to eat a bowl of cornflakes with cold milk and a sprinkle of sugar…but as we never buy cornflakes that rarely happens…the power of adverts…

I did once make some cornflake spin dryers…they never caught on…

THEME: My favorite thing to eat!

Don't we all have our very own "comfort" food? Something we turn to when we want that special snack or delectable dessert or our favorite entree. I know I do. What is yours? Have fun making a tasty collage that will make your mouth water.

Hygge or Cosagach

 Winter is great to sit on a comfy chair by the fire or  in candle light and do some knitting or sewing.

The Danish call it Hygge.   Taking time to get comfy in low light and warmth….winter is hard enough so be kind to yourself and snuggle down…a lit candle is a must.

However obscure your New Year Resolutions I hope you find some that can be kept - at least until Febuary!

COPING with WINTER -- Dreaming of Springtime

 Right about now I start thinking about bulbs I planted in October as well as my perennial beds that are buried under snow and/or frozen ground.  Dreaming of flowers I will soon see make me smile.

THEME: Coping with Winter

Winter is definitely upon us in Chicago. 

We just had a lovely spell of 50 ° F (10 ° C) days with much needed rain but now the "jet stream" is cruelly bringing below freezing temperatures our way. This is when I start to think about getting through the next couple of months.

Let's create a collage about coping with this time of year!
