My first ever #tbt! 1982, me as Drum Major, 16 years old. I really like who this girl was. In the picture you can see that I could be serious and I can see some sadness because that time of life is hard for most of us. But she was pretty confident too an

While uncluttering the house, I found #calligraphy that I did in 2005 when attending #artfest. This was done by the incredibly talented Lisa Engelbrecht, the Letterista! May she rest in peace. She passed just under a year ago. I feel so fortunate to have

When the Gipsy Kings take the stage, the rhythm section starts playing - percussion, drums, bass and keyboards. Then… count 'em 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 guitarists enter from stage left playing!!! It is a place where "Spanish flamenco and gypsy rhapsody meet sals

My name for the #handletteredabcs_extended. I have always loved my name. My mom is Midori and my parents made my name out of hers. It's just Dori, not short for anything, and the simplest way to spell it. Growing up I was always the only one with my name

A different version of my made up pangram using a much larger folded pen. It's HUGE and almost got away from me. #handletteredabcs_extended

Today's #handletteredabcs_extended challenge is a pangram which is a sentence that includes every letter of the alphabet. So I made my own. "My furry black dog Kuma jumps and zooms when very excited." And that crazy looking pen is a folded pen so this dou
