Unique pieces of art



Christian just sent me an email with the following message:

Last year, two Russian artists, Leonid Tishkov and Boris Bendikov, created an "illuminating" art show by creating large light sculptures of a quarter moon, and suggesting, somewhat tongue in cheek, that these could become one's "personal moons," to bring home and place where ever one needed one.

Check out their site by clicking here.

I absolutely love images of the moon. The power it has over me is amazingly strong... I just can't get enough of it in artwork, photography, poetry, and in real life. Take a long look at some of these images and see if it doesn't do the same for you too.

Life is good because of artists who can envision something grand and convey what's in their heart to someone they don't know and probably will never meet.

Self-cleaning ovens... what will they think of next?

Does everybody know about this already or am I just a little slow? I've lived 36 years without having had the experience of using the self-cleaning button on the various ovens in my life. It doesn't seem at all possible, yet here I am today- having just had one of the most amazing domestic experiences I've had in a while. Wow! It was so easy and so thorough. My oven is sparkling clean! I keep sneaking back into the kitchen to take peeks. Dare I say, I almost can't wait for it to get dirty so I can have this fun all over again.

Life is good because of... fabulous results with very little effort. Something that was dirty is now clean... and I was doing something else the whole time it was happening. How cool is that?!
