Hi all, welcome to my Wednesday workspace. This is part of our What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday, hosted by Julia on https://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/
I started off with an over-the-top version, but I think it was too much. I even put a snail on one leaf.
It's hard to keep a straight edge but I'm working on it.
Story
Neil Gaiman related a wonderful story this week, good for anyone with confidence issues as well as for people on the autistic spectrum. I was so impressed I've
copied it and linked it here:
Mystery object
Last week I asked you what my little carved owl was used for.
When I was small, my father took over a warehouse. In the attic, he found a box of letters from a priest in a leper colony, and this little owl inkwell.My mother wouldn't have the letters in the house; I don't know what happened to them. Still, I was allowed to keep the little owl. Its inkwell insert is missing, and I don't know how old it is. I remember the letters had stamps, so I'd guess 19th century. No new mystery object this week, but I hope you enjoyed them.
Family
We're all improving. B's foot is better and the cats are mainly engaged in radiator-worshipping, Thea 's good morning greeting to me is always up close; she reminds me of the lionesses rubbing heads that we see on TV.
Holiday memory -Japanese gardens
Four years ago this week I was in Kanazawa on Japan's west coast. It is famed for the Kenro-kuen garden . I also went there for the ninja temple, full of secret panels, passages and traps (no photos allowed).
Kanazawa has lots of smaller gardens, too.
This samurai garden was so peaceful I stayed for hours.
Anyway, that's me for this week. Many thanks for visiting; I'd love if you can leave a comment. Stay safe, hugs and happy WOYWW,
Lynne
