Every other Saturday during my childhood, we would have this soup or a variation of it – sometimes with angel-hair noodles or egg stirred through it. I’ve always called it my Nonna’s soup, as it reminds me of her every time I eat it. It’s a regular wintertime soup on my menu. I usually double the recipe (adding extra salt to taste) and eat it over a couple of days for lunch and dinner. It’s really one of my favourites! I love the clear fennel-scented cleansing broth with droplets of olive oil coating on top and the fragrant taste of...

While many folks stick to insects and flowers (understandably!) macro photography can be applied to almost anything. Buttons, fabric, water drops, eyes… you name it! Here, we’ll look at 10 beautiful macro photos:…
Am I the only one who is ready for this Winter to be over? Spring Break is right around the corner and we still have freezing temperatures here!! This week we have been looking at the ugly, freezing, dark skies and rain. We wanted to turn it into something beautiful! Begin with a white crayon and draw the horizon line. there should be a big emphasis on drawing OVALS instead of circles. Students figured out that you can see the white crayon BETTER when the paper in on their stool UNDER the table! So I let them draw on their stools! Can you see the white crayon in the picture? Some students added a rainbow, lightning bolt or other details Then I swiped the ENTIRE paper with a wet rag to begin the wet on wet watercolor I used Sargent Liquid Watercolor Magic for this. I use it ALOT because of the vibrant colors. We used turquoise, Blue, and black Ovals should be very small at the top of the horizon, but gradually get larger as they go down the page. Use a straight edge for the rain drops. The must TOUCH each puddle First, paint some large blue "blobs" on your paper. Then paint around the blue with black and watch it blend with the blue and the wet paper!! I have some siblings at my school working on a special project and they painted the background with the rain idea and it turned out great! Here is a link to the kind of watercolors I use for EVERYTHING! There are different sizes if you want a smaller set. You can put them in muffin tins or ice cube trays on the tables. You can see the link " liquid watercolors" on the sidebar to see many other projects I have used these with

This lab is designed to help them discover the answer to...
A pciture from cycling trips around England. Lymington is a colourful coastal town and an ancient seaport with a rich maritime history. But I was attracted first and foremost by its quiet charm and subdued elegance of little streets which reminded me of Marina Tsvetayeva poem: I’d like to live with You In a small town, Where there are eternal twilights And eternal bells. And in a small village inn — The faint chime Of ancient clocks — like droplets of time. This is a limited edition print of 10 prints. I print every copy by hand and images can vary in tonal characteristics and texture. It is sold unframed but mounted on a square mount to fit a standard square frame (34x34cm)
