Red Dirt Farm and Studio

Hi Y’all

Let me introduce myself and my new blog.

I’ve blogged here at WordPress for a few years, under my business name.

But now, I am going to let it all hang out.

Have you ever been to a party that you felt you stayed at too long?  Well that is how I was feeling about parts of my life and my old blog.  There were some things that needed to be changed and after long and careful consideration I felt it was time to reinvent some things that were not working in my life.  So here I am with a new blog and new beginnings.  I hope that you will join me on this journey wherever it may lead.

So what am I going to blog about?  I dunno.  My game plan isn’t set in stone.  But I’m thinking there will be days that I write about gardening, and cooking and crafting with lots of photos, because that is my passion.   I must say I am not a professional and I don’t alter my photos – no Photoshop here.  They are simple and natural, just like my cooking and me.

A few months ago for kicks I went with a group of ladies for a day filled with astrologers and readers and healers and all kinds of wacky new age people.  I spent time with three different readers in three separate rooms ( so they couldn’t over hear what was being said).  The skeptic in me showed up for the day, however I was amazed that I was told  by all three of these people  – in not so many words that I needed to lighten up a bit and to believe in myself more and to be in touch with that crazy artist inside me.  This is something that I believe they all accurately spoke of.

I’m a traditionalist and  I am a bit old-fashioned.  But I am also the crazy lady living in the coral cottage with purple trim in the middle of conservative country.

I like to color outside the lines – especially with purple.

 I like to drink tea at three and margaritas at five.

Now I’m getting old, I don’t go to church and I don’t wear underwear.

If you know what song that line came from, then you know me.

See ya later, bye
