Originally, the idea was this. Two sisters spending one year creating art, or at least creating, every day using only supplies that they already have, get for free, find, or receive...looking to rediscover the artistic selves they've lost somewhere along the way in all the clutter of life... But it didn't fit into life, and so now who knows what you might find?!!

Toad in the Hole

The Wind in the Willows was on of the first books I read aloud to both of my sons together.  We loved reading about crazy Toad and his obsession with fast cars, the picnics on the riverbanks with Ratty and Mole, and the wonders of Toadhall.  The boys were equally as delighted the following year to go on Toad's Wild Ride in Disneyworld: a neon colored, blacked lighted, fast moving, crazy fun ride with Toad in his little car.  When we visited Disney years later with their little sister in tow, the boys couldn't wait to take her on this ride - but in true Disney fashion, it had been replaced with something newer (I think it was to do with Winnie the Pooh, so it certainly lost it's wild ride status!).

  1. Adore this, love the way Grahame & Toad are looking at each other, and the rock! This is one of your best yet!!! And I'm falling apart at the seams... oh well.
