Once upon a time, back in Britain, this bloke aske

Once upon a time, back in Britain, this bloke asked me on a date. We went to an Indian restaurant where the food was lovely and the kulfi came in little ceramic pots with lids. When the waiter came to clear the plates, he noticed me clutching the pot, and asked me if I'd like to keep it - oh yes. Then he brought over a red rose and handed it to me. Huh? Turned out it was Valentines day and neither my date or I had noticed. (It's a very different thing in GB)
21 years ago... still have the pot, still go out with that bloke, but we more often than not we stay in.

I've had the privilege this year of being a minor

I've had the privilege this year of being a minor assistant on a major commission. Constance Laing, an artist in town, received a major architectural gilding commission. I have been building table tops and helping prep her studio for the arrival of four large doors whilst she gilded away on the glass all the long summer.
This week I got to help her install the gilded glass into the doorframes - nerve-wracking but exhilerating watching it all come together.

Not quite sure how to cut down my big black carbon

Not quite sure how to cut down my big black carbon footprint, so I'm trying to manipulate myself with awareness, and punitive taxation. Trying for 12 tanks of gas in my car for the whole year - so far it's not going great, quarter tank left of # 1 and it's only the 16th January.
Also not sure what I'll do with my self-imposed carbon tax, maybe it's my EV fund?! Any ideas are welcome for reduction and good use for my carbon tax.

Yay Blue Heron Books! My favourite Christmas shopping event - testing the book choosing skills of Shelagh from Blue Heron for each member of my family. As ever she found awesome books for everyone! Picture blurred so said family can't read their book titles...

Teaching is a blast... well, not so much teaching

Teaching is a blast... well, not so much teaching as being around in the classroom when something cool is happening: I set a 'kinetic'project a couple of weeks ago, and when I return for the next block of teaching, one student has sprouted wings. .
