Peace, Love, and Pussyhats Stick Figure

You likely know that for 13 years I've been working with three, four, and five year olds who happen to have disabilities. I was recently inspired by the cutest little stick figure that one of my students drew, so I drew my own...a la pussyhat! I think I'm in love with her! And I put her on t-shirts and mugs! (Click on those words if you want to see them in my Zazzle shop.)

Her face becomes the color of the shirt. I love this!

The Power of Suggestion

I'm coming up on my one year anniversary of totally and completely cutting caffeine out of my life.   No coffee, no brown/black/green tea, no hot chocolate or any chocolate for that matter.  And really, it's been fine.  After those initial three days of withdrawal, that is.  It was worse than the worst flu ever, I tell you.  Seriously, my hat's off to anyone who can actually quit something really hard.

Anyway, as we've had quite the cold snap I'm finding myself a little hot beverage needy...and challenged.  I dug through the cabinets and found some herbal remedy type teas, and I've been getting my fix with a tea perfectly designed to soothe a sore throat.

And...unfortunately my throat has a certain weakness for the power of suggestion.  Sigh....


Hmmmmm...If I'm that susceptable, I need to get a hold of some herbal "tidy up your art project area already" tea.  My family would be so happy!
