The last time I painted anything seriously was about 10 years ago. I found my toolbox among the random junk and holiday decorations, wiped off the cobwebs and found all of my old watercolor paints still in great condition. I would love to start painting again.

This is another one of my cats. Isabelle. She’s a big fat Persian that grows wild and unruly fur. Here she is showing off her new haircut for the summer. Sporty, yet glamorous!
I went to the Bethlehem Rose Garden for the first time today. Beautiful place! Wallpapers coming soon.
This is our cat Mooshoo aka Meow Master Moosh. Mooshoo fended for himself the first year of his life in the Croatan National Forest until one day he found me and has been with us ever since. He’s an incredibly goofy cat. I believe he’s part monkey and dog. Although sometimes when he’s staring out the window he chatters like a squirrel.

I thought I would take advantage of this little dandelion before the lawn mower obliterated it.
I was locking up this morning on the way to the hardware store and this dude was hanging out by my front door. He was still there when I got back so I did what any macro photography fanatic would do and brought out my camera. I have no idea what kind of bug this is. Anyone have any ideas? Let me know!
UPDATE: Mystery solved! It’s an Ailanthus webworm moth!
Smoked salmon rolls stuffed with baby spinach, cream cheese, and red onions. Yum!
I was sitting at my vanity table looking through an eyeshadow palette. Boredom took the best of me so I decided to make a really dark eye. One eye, mind you. Haha! Anyway… just thought I’d pull out the macro lens and take a few pics. It’s funny how gross this looks. The combination of heavy makeup and ultra close-up shot of the skin. Sorta like a picture of some strange insect or a creepy doll eye.
Stink bugs (Halyomorpha halys) have overrun the Lehigh Valley. I use to be afraid of them – silly, I know – but strangely I’ve started to get used to them. If they stay put I’m good but when they start flying around they freak me out! They like to congregate in my bathroom. Many peaceful showers have been ruined by stink bug sightings!
