Happy Friday!

Off to Seattle tomorrow for work.  
So sad to leave Tucson in the spring time - everything is blooming.  

Happy weekend friends!

Tomato Tour

At work this week we went on an amazing tour of the University of Arizona -College of Agriculture and Life Science Farm - it is right in the middle of town.  I was amazed by the hydroponically grown produce - we even got to take home our own bag of tomatoes and cucumbers.  Yum!  
Check out all my photos here 
(Warning - there are also some graphic shots of meat - we visited the classrooms/meat lab).

 

For Erin....

A mix I made today with my sister in mind.

I've Decided...

I should make one of these. Rope, a small piece of wood and a drill for the holes? Something I might be able to manage? Home Depot here I come (only because our local hardware store doesn't carry these items). I will let you know how it goes and/or if it looks ridiculous. I only need one shelf though - for holding spices, oils, and such. Fingers crossed it will be easy and super cool looking.

In awe...

I met up with an old friend that was in town to go to his girlfriend's MFA thesis project.  Luckily, I was able to join them at the end of her AMAZING show.  It will be hard for me to truly express how awesome her work is.  But I will try...

First - check out the work of Margaret Kimball here.

For her project she sent out these pretty invitations


Guests took part in a scavenger hunt that ended with drinks at Gentle Ben's in Tucson. Any project that ends at a bar is genius in my opinion.  

While on the scavenger hunt, participants found pieces of her art and put them in this 
cute bag. 

 When at the final location -  the pieces fit together in a puzzle to create these lovely drawings.  Go here to enlarge her work to enjoy them in more detail.  


The Everything will be alright Project - a great mantra for any graduate program...

Thank you Margi and Brian for the invitation!
