Today’s piece from “Slice of Miami Pie” is this gem. This is another one that REALLY makes people stumble. Can you figure it out? …in other news…the new house is coming along slowly but surely. There is still painting and organizing to be done. The nursery is a LONG way off…and the only way we…

L is for Lighthouse
L is for Lighthouse in my Miami Alphabet. Is it wrong to admit, I kind of don’t want any of the letters to sell because I’d love to finish the alphabet? I mean…I can always reproduce…so if a letter finds a home then it’s not the worst thing that could happen at all. The lighthouse…
Pie of the Day
Can you guess what this one is? It’s one of my favorites, the combination of colors …the pie itself is one of my favorites too. I first tested this idea on a bag (which is still available). Took one person about two minutes to figure it out. I knew I had a good one at…
Slice of Miami Pie at Books and Books…Now Open!

Alphabetical Order
Happy Monday! In Miami not only is it Monday, but its the first day of school for public schools and many private schools…so it is only appropriate that I show you progress on some of the Miami Alphabet paintings. This weekend I did nothing but work on the paintings and pack for our move. I…
Keep Looking Up
For as long as I can remember Jack Horkheimer was encouraging me to “Keep looking up” at the night sky. The Director of the Miami Science Museum Planetarium, Jack also was popular for his show on PBS called “The Star Gazer” (originally called “The Star Hustler”). Jack was great…he mysteriously went from bald to a…
H is for… and F is for…
Tonight I started working on these two letters while putting finishing touches on the two from last night. So…H is for… and F is for…. Finishing touches will go on tomorrow night. Books and Books is right around the corner…
