Thyme On My Hands

The restaurant scene in my town is incredible - creative, diverse, and always changing. When out to dinner one night, we happened upon a very simple condiment with an equally simple - and delicious -  twist. Salt, wine, herbs, oil... and bread. Let's talk about ancient things with some Creativity applied!

Today I watched a TED talk by a young man who organized an art show of 100 artists from all kinds of backgrounds. There's a twist, and we're going to talk about it on today's show. I'm thinking in broad terms today, but there will be Herbs. At least a little. ;) 

I'm up out of deep water to talk to y'all today - there is nothing quite like being in Creative Flow! So, let's just Ramble a bit today, shall we?Oh, and striped bass. I'm in love, I kid you not. 

I missed two weeks' worth of shows. Missed them. Not by plan, not on purpose - I was painting! So this week I'm going to talk about the How and Why of that, the reasons that a creative activity can cause us to totally tune out the rest of the world.And, as promised, we'll talk a little more Lavender. I'm setting a timer for the first half of the show, so I don't forget... ;) 

Lavender is at the top of the "short list" of my favorite herbs, and I'm always looking for new ways to bring it into my everyday life. Today I'll be talking about the ins and outs of growing this beautiful, useful plant and brainstorming a little for some crafty ways to use it around the house.
