It's Saturday Morning!

The orders of business:
-make two pies
-attend hair appointment
-actually get out of bed and accomplish the first two items.

The first thing I do when I get up in the morning is turn on the tv, so I don't fall back asleep. PBS has the painter guy. "The Joy of Painting". Remember the guy with the delicate, peaceful voice and the huge afro? Bob Ross is his name. I have no clue if he's still alive. Ooop...I just saw a post-show plug for the Bob Ross Memoral Fund. I think he's parted from this mortal coil.

I really wish he would have dropped acid, and then did his painting show. He needed more angry suns and foreboding trees. And maybe he could have thrown in a dead body on his painting instead of a cute little log cabin.

Geez. It's now time for One-stroke Painting by Donna Dewberry. Today's topic, painting candles.

Lord, I am so not a crafts kinda gal.

Bob Ross was always my prescription for anybody having a really bad drug experience. If his happy little trees couldn't soothe you into a nice calm head, nothing could.

Indeed. I love his little bits of wisdom he tosses in while he's painting a tree. In today's episode, he's painting coniferous trees. He decides to paint a "friend" for the tree (another tree). Then he launches into the importance of friends and friendship.

...and some happy little trees... no future telephone-poles for these guys!

My PBS affiliate does nothing but cooking shows on Saturday morning, so I love it. I didn't get the craft gene either, I'm afraid.

I'm the type of lass that makes Martha Stewart cringe. :-)

His voice was way too relaxing for me to pay attention.
