The Sago Palm Pot

On October 20, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics

Okay, you really don't want to know about my "former" sago palm... Suffice it to say that I had to trim back all its leaves... However, I managed to plant it in the flower bed, so we'll see how it does there. It also had two "babies" that I will be attempting to plant as …

Life on the Edge

On October 11, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda

Hi everyone, it's me, Foster, reporting from the edge... Mom was looking at me the other day while I was sitting on the corner of the kitchen table, and she remarked to herself how I always seem to sit right on the edge of stuff. The table was kind of messy so she didn't take …

“Inktober”, Part 1

On October 9, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

"What is Inktober?" you may ask... For the longest time, I wasn't too sure myself. I did know it had to do with drawing one picture in ink (hence the name) every day for the entire month of October. Inktober is a fun challenge for all types of artists, so this month I got inspired …

Just Add Water, Part 3

On October 7, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

You remember my garden spheres, right? (If you're just joining us, you can go back and read "Just Add Water" to see these spheres in their humble beginnings.) They sat around for weeks while I tried to decide what to do with them, and finally the idea hit me! Wouldn't it be fun to make a …

2-Year Vet Visit

On October 1, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda

I should have known something was up when Mom brought the cat carrier in from the garage... I seem to remember telling you after my one-year vet visit, that if your human leaves your carrier open you probably should not just walk in. So this time I proceeded much more cautiously.Something is suspicious about this...Umm...nope!Knowing …

Nopales and More

On September 29, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

So when Panda fell into the nopales in Peru, he said they were just like the ones at Carlos and Kate's house... ..and he wasn't terribly far from the truth. This is the one from Carlos and Kate's house. (We still don't know how Panda actually got that information, but anyway.) I thought it would …

Gems on the Sidewalk

On September 25, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

No, I did not say "germs" on the sidewalk, although I'm sure they are there, too... Here's a nice picture of my "whimsical" backyard, ("pre-mosaic curb", I might add, if you look closely at the back corner). In the foreground, you might also be able to see spaces between the cement areas that make up …

Babies!

On September 21, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Sewing and Crafts

What could be more fun than babies? The answer is simple: More babies!Which brings me to one of the projects I did with "my girls" over the summer. ("Second Childhood, Part 2" was another fun one, in case you missed it.)You may remember that I showed you all these baby socks awhile back, when I was …

ABC Animals Part 4

On September 15, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Art and Drawing

Have you ever seen a numbat? Neither have I, but I'm getting pretty good at Googling "Animals that start with...", and for the letter N, I found numbat. You might think it would be some kind of bat, but it looks pretty much like what you see here. (I will say that it's kind of …

The Dark and Stormy Night

On September 13, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda

It was a dark and stormy night. (It wasn't, really.  I've just always wanted to write that.) It was a fine, clear, fall night, much like tonight, as a matter of fact. I was apparently the only one up, and so I decided to take the opportunity to go in the living room and look …
