T Stands for Fruity Smoothie

 Hi Everyone!

I have tried to write a blog post for the last 2 days. Everything I wrote seem stupid or not read worthy.  However, before I get started here I want to send healing energy to Elizabeth who had an accident and will have to have surgery on her eye. She holds T for Tuesday so please go over and give her a blessing.

So here it is Tuesday and I am going to try T stands for Smoothie, leather and big.
Everyday I try to drink a fresh fruit smoothie. I always add fresh fruit I have on hand and then I have blueberries that Mr. M. and I pick every year that I freeze. Yesterday, it was apple, banana, fresh strawberries and the blueberries. I add ice and blend it all up. Sooo good and refreshing.

 The above photo is very boring so I thought I would show some older leather art that will fit in for this post. Most of you know I work with leather and some day I will blog about my history with it. For today the next two photos are floating objects with leather feature.


 These are just 2 pieces of leather art that was 
featured in our Library art gallery a few years ago.



The big part of this post is my potato plant.
 OMG! I hope all this means I have a big harvest.
Oh yes, it's overcast and getting ready to rain. What's new for my area. LOL

Make your day the best you can.

Very interesting art this week! And your potato plant looks great. One can never have too many potatoes.
Yum! Who doesn't love a fruit smoothie. Perfect for the hot weather.
Happy Tea Day,

Oh I didn't know Elizabeth had had an accident. She didn't mention it. Thanks for telling. A few extra prayers and blessings won't go amiss.
As Eileen says, nothing boring about that smoothie. In fact it looks delicious.
Your leather work sculptures are amazing.
Wishing you a very happy T-Day,
Hugs (These ones are allowed, but oh I so crave real hugs),

Hey Nicole, well this post for sure wasn't boring! 😏 So much to address, actually! 😃 First thing's first, I make fresh fruit smoothies every single day and mine are in the same color as yours! 💜 Same plastic cup as well! 😄 Gotta stay healthy! 💪🏻

Don't think I remember seeing leather art like yours anywhere. So interesting! 🙄 I'm impressed, alright! Love it. 🧡

Hi Nicole, I just read about Elizabeth how awful, I do hope she recovers very quickly, such a lovely lady.
My Daughter starts her day with a smoothy, I much prefer my fruit in a large bowl with a big spoonful of quark on top :))
I have always loved your leather work, I do believe it may have been the first artwork of yours I ever saw, amazing pieces with an air of magic.
I do hope you are keeping well? June was eaten up with care duties and spending more time with the family, a great tonic for us all. Hoping July will give me a little more me time.. Take care of yourself Hugs Tracey xx

Your leather projects are amazing! Truly! The potato plan is also amazing. Who would guess one could end up with such a lovely plant from a 🥔! I’m not good growing things but I like to try. How did you start this plant?

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

I am SO sorry to be so late visiting Nicole. I just have to be careful when I'm on the computer and once my poor eye (the one I can actually look out of) gets tired, I know I must rest. I hope you understand and forgive me for taking so long to get here.

I used to like smoothies, but my blender I use for food (I have one for making paper, too) quit working and I never replaced it. I miss them, and this looks wonderful and NOT boring at all.

Your leather art is incredible. I'm so in awe of these pieces you have made. Such an imagination and such a great talent you have, dear. Thanks for sharing your smoothie and your incredible leather art with us for T on Tuesday. And your potato plant is looking good. Will you cover the plant as it grows?

CJ Kennedy said...

mmmm, a smoothie would be so good right now. Your floating objects are WOW! 😮 Very cool. Looks like you'll get a bumper crop from the size of your potato plant. Take care and Happy T Day

I really love your leather art, it must be very satisfying to complete a pice of art such as these!
I really hope you have lots of potatoes under that canopy! Belated T Day Wishes! Chrisx
