Pink Saturday

May 16, 2009 at 2:06 am by Claudia

Do you remember my earlier PS post about Scout’s ears and how pink they become when the sun was behind her? Well, I knew I had a photo somewhere of her with her really, really pink ears and I found it yesterday. Without further ado, Scout and her neon pink ears!

Let’s see, what else for this Pink Saturday? I found a frame for my Christie Repasy painting at an antique mall – I think the gold nicely sets off the beautiful pink roses.

This week the pink flower is Alstromeria ~ one of my favorites to put in a vase because they last so long.



This week I am in rehearsals on Saturday and Sunday ~ and my husband is here ~ but never fear, I will stop by your blogs. Please visit Beverly and see all the Pink Saturday posts.

Little Lilac that could

May 14, 2009 at 8:53 pm by Claudia


The little Lilac that could…proof that my Lilac bush survived the winter and is blooming. Pardon the long grass in the photo. That’s the kind of thing I normally take care of with the clippers. But I’m not home, as you know. I’m just happy to see the blossoms. If only photos came with a scent feature!

I Talk Too Much and My Treat from Karla

May 13, 2009 at 12:54 pm by Claudia


I thought I’d get another post up ~ I looked back at the last post and thought, sheesh, I talk too much! That is what my first grade teacher Miss Brown accused me of. She was a steely, tough, old-fashioned teacher who told my Mom that I was the only student she had ever had in all her years of teaching who, as she looked me in the eye and told me to be quiet, looked away from her and kept on talking. Yes, its true. Miss Brown was hard on us, but I learned to read and developed a life-long love of reading because of her. Thanks, Miss Brown, and sorry for talking so much. There’s just so much to say!

I won a giveaway at Karla’s Cottage and my package arrived yesterday. She made this wonderful cupcake charm! Isn’t it adorable? Thank you, Karla! If you haven’t visited her blog, you should. She is amazingly creative, has an adorable granddaughter, her house is to die for and wait until you see her studio! Stop by ~ you’ll be delighted.


I am up to my eyeballs in run-throughs, dress rehearsals and Don arrives tomorrow night. I hope we can grab a lot of time together. Keep your fingers crossed.

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
