These aren't the best photos of eagles, but - EAGLES! Wah! We spotted them over the Hocking River as we headed out for a family hike, yesterday morning. It was a great way to spend my birthday.

Our Thursdays are busy, so some of it was spent doing the things we usually do - Hip Hop for Eliza, and art class for Ani. My friend Molly is leading some "art principles" classes for a handful of friends, and I got to participate in this one. It was so much fun - good therapy for a Thursday night.

They were working on replacement collages, focusing on faces and figures, and talking about taking objects out of context: spoons for hair, petals for clothing, plate of spaghetti for an eye...
...and then, a party! Molly's son, N. and husband spent the week researching and planning and making a mushroom cake for me! I felt so special and honored. Not only did it look amazing, but it was gluten-free and tasted so good!
I asked them for some more photos that might better convey the work that went into this piece of art...It rested on a bed of moss (chocolate and dried greens) and it even had gills. I am so impressed, grateful and LUCKY to have friends who love me like this.
