My Office




This early in the morning you can't see the toxic sludge that has all but destroyed this beautiful wetland. Coal mining is the devil!

Magic!!! In the form of a red velvet cake.


The beginnings of something wonderful. Shortening, granulated sugar, red food coloring...

Homemade cream cheese frosting! I was asked by a 4-year-old if it gets yummier the longer you mix it. I said, "Yes, of course it does."

Three layer side view.

The view from the top. It looks so pretty!!!

The finished masterpiece. Those boys at the wetland better love me for this.

Swiss Chard.
