Lots more to report today - dear goddaughter and sister came to lend their creative skills. Poor T just got 4 wisdom teeth removed, so cam looking like Jacob Marley, but with a great spirit! T, a student of fine arts, was commissioned to paint the ocean (one of her specialties). As I am writing this, I realize that she neglected to sign her work! Meanwhile, sister worked on redecorating the town tree, which was starting to show its age.
She also made a fabulous whale for the ocean!
T and I then turned our attentions to finishing off the town square, putting in a few more roads, landscaping the mountainsides and church yard. T also gave the horses and sheep some greener pastures.
Sister ran out for hte all important 11-bean-soup - its dried peas and lentils are destined to become cabbages and lettuces for the farms!
This bout of productivity started with some hot chocolate & Christmas carols to get us in the mood, and ended with dim sum made by our in-house master chef!
Thanks so much!! All others welcome to add your own touches!
