I’m not sure how legal this fake Damien Hirst blog is, but it’s funny. Im surprised Mr Hirst hasn’t shut them down. This fake Damien Hirst work of 44 peanut M&Ms is called “The fear of becoming fat expressed in the joy of being colorful” Other works include Thoughts on eternal life by someone living a mundane life in a tiny flat, The price of being a virgin in the world dominated by people who’s virginity could never be proven, and Snow White and the seven dwarfs without the seven dwarfs actually being the seven dwarfs

Very old books with cracking spines, thoroughly yellowed pages, and portraits of men with handlebar mustaches are, naturally, fascinating reads. And few more so than The World’s Brightest Gems of Music , an un-copyrighted (at least as far as I could tell) text promoted by editor Professor D. H. Morrison as a volume of: “ songs, hymns, glees, madrigals, ballads, sentences, responses, anthems, chants, etc., etc., all chosen expressly for the eminent fitness to promote The Happiness of Every Home” Thank you Thompson and Thomas of 262 Wabash Avenue, Chicago.

Propped against the wall throughout the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in the Giardini of the 53rd La Biennale di Venezia were Andre Cadere’s Barres de bois rond . These colourful wooden bars seemed purposefully out of place. They had no apparent relationship to the work they were exhibited with, and they were scattered around throughout the exhibition pavillion placed adjacent to other artists’ work, or almost tucked away in forgotten spaces.

Born: 15 April 1452 Birthplace: Vinci, Italy Died: 2 May 1519 (natural causes) Best Known As: Painter of the Mona Lisa Leonardo da Vinci is best remembered as the painter of the Mona Lisa (1503-1506) and The Last Supper (1495). But he’s almost equally famous for his astonishing multiplicity of talents: he dabbled in architecture, sculpture, engineering, geology, hydraulics and the military arts, all with success, and in his spare time doodled parachutes and flying machines that resembled inventions of the 19th and 20th centuries. He made detailed drawings of human anatomy which are still highly regarded today.

Julie and I have spent the last couple of weekends at auctions, standing out in the boiling sun so you don’t have to! We have some fabulous finds! My favorite is and antique bedroom set with a Gentlemen’s dresser. It is beautiful and has already found a new home. It seems that Julie likes the old cupboard with the wainscoting on the inside. We had a tremendous amount of traffic the last few days. We decided to be open when Lands’ End has their huge warehouse blow-out sale. Harris Park, where they have their sale, is located only about a quarter of a mile from the barn. So it has been lots of fun for us. People from all over our Great States have made it an annual event to come to the Lands’ End Sale. We will be open tomorrow, too.

Before I leave Thankful Thursday , I would be remiss if I didn’t mention how thankful I am for friends that last a lifetime. Yesterday my dear, long-time friend Mollie and her lovely granddaughter, Jaida, stopped by the market on their way to the coast to see Mollie’s son, Kevin, and his family. It could be months or years between visits, but a friendship that is tried and true always resumes like you were only hours apart. What laughter and tears we have shared with a friendship that spans almost a half-century if not a full half-century. Yes, I am especially thankful for lasting friendships. “A friend loves at all times.” Proverbs 17:17

Wow! We sold a lot of furniture yesterday and this “Senior Citizen who has worked since I was a teenager ” ….was really tired last night! By the way, I’ve already been talking to the Lord [most of my life in fact], about my departure from here to the home He has prepared for me and know He has all of that worked out. I just don’t like the idea of a number of government czars who don’t know me deciding if I am valuable enough to society for such and such treatment. In the midst of government grabbing for my liberties and accusing me of being a part of an organized mob when I stand up for my American freedom, I am reminded this is “Thankful Thursday” and I am truly thankful for our All Wise, All Knowing, All Powerful Heavenly Father: “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body, you are called to peace. And be thankful.” Colossians 3:15

This trip to Syria isn’t just about the charming locals, I’m also interested in the former inhabitants of this lovely place : the Assyrians and the Romans – fascinating folk, both of them. Picking up some ancient goodies would also be nice, there’s nothing like an artefact or two in the drawing room to impress one’s friends…not that I have a drawing room as I live out of a rucksack, silly me! I’m starting with Damascus, and of course, I’ll be staying in the Old City, which is right in the middle of town. I know in a few weeks I’ll be staying in a bedouin tent and milking goats – probably smelling and looking like one…SO I’m pleased to be staying at the Beit Al Mamlouka – a very cool 17th century “palace” in Old Damascus which is now a boutique hotel. At $150 + for four-star digs and five-star character, it’s very reasonable

Photo by Adam Scheuermann I’ve been spending a few days reflecting on last month’s No Spending Challenge and thinking about how to carry some of those new habits forward. (Because why would I save money all month and then toss it at the end?) This was our third year to try this family challenge, and each year was definitely easier than the one before. The first year we learned the hard way that even something as small as $15 on dinner out made it difficult to meet a $40 weekly food budget.
