From 2010, my favorite moments. I just finished putting my 2010 photos into a Blurb book, which has become my version of a photo album and a diary. I make one every year now. I feel like having these photos of daily life help me remember the year...since I'm not great at keeping a written journal the photos serve as instant memory joggers and put me right back into the moment the photo was taken, the sounds, the smells, the temperature of the air and what was going on in my world at that particular moment in time.

It's gray here today, and I've been sewing pillows all week. Today was my day to take photos and get everything up on Etsy, but the light is so bad, I'm going to put it off...I'm hoping for sun tomorrow. As for today, I really feel like making a chocolate cake like the one in the photo above.
