I'm lucky that Resident Chef is willing to cut my hair because otherwise it would be really long by now. Mine grows really fast so he's already cut it five times. Once winter comes I'll likely let it grow a bit more.Magpie's Mumblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852241848575954128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-51562675264860876142020-08-11T04:59:47.591-04:002020-08-11T04:59:47.591-04:00You look fabulous Mary Anne!

You're lucky to have an in-house hairdresser. I do too, me! My son cuts his own, too. So the last few months haven't changed our appearances, beyond the passage of time, that is. But I'm hearing a lot of distress calls from people not liking their hair, or eyebrows, or, this one amazed me -- their facial waxing. I didn't know if it was a thing before. But they're vital to the folks who don't feel groomed without them.Boudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00641013916263271948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24429902.post-17904673494665331382020-08-08T17:51:46.594-04:002020-08-08T17:51:46.594-04:00We both have short white hair and I have to wear g...We both have short white hair and I have to wear glasses when I stitch.

Even though I've never quilted anything I've been glad to read that Crazy Quilt Magazine is going to continue. <br /><br />Now I've got to comment on Zemer Peled's creations. Like Val, I assumed I was looking at something flexible like foam or rubber. Until I clicked a picture to read the description. And then clicked another. And another. Never would I have imagined all those things are made of porcelain. And porcelain shards, no less. Somehow I still think they must be able to move like the creatures they represent. Sigh.
