The Spanish Peacock

My spinning obsession continues with a Russian supported spindle and bowl set from The Spanish Peacock.... I think this is one of the coolest things ever.

I have to do a lot more practicing to get it going smoothly!! This set is made of Lignum Vitae and it is so beautiful, the wood smells like roses. The whole spinning thing fascinates me!

"In the name of God... I Kimberly take you Christopher to be my husband....

To have and to hold from this day forward...

For better, for worse...

For richer, for poorer....

In sickness and in health....

To love and to cherish....

Until we are parted by death...

This is my solemn vow..."

The grate....it must be Fall

This morning we woke up to a 50 degree house.... I had to turn the heat on for a bit to take the chill out of the house.

Our house is old... and our heating comes up from the floor vents... a favored spot for the McAlindin children.

Fall is here!
