i've been doing plenty -- lots of blog-worthy projects in making and baking - but i've been so unmotivated to take photos along the way! and who wants to hear about the lemon souffles that i made, or the rug i knit for my bathroom, or about any of the projects that i'm trying to get through, without photos? i don't think it's nearly as interesting without images to accompany the stories. so, that's why i haven't posted....
and, i admit, it's also because i haven't exactly been kicking ass with work... i had a really lovely little break spending time with people that i love and doing extended christmas-ing and new-years-ing.
but now i'm back on the west coast and it's been in the 80's since my return and that's making me feel energized and motivated!
with all this sunshine, it'll be a lot easier to take photos and keep up with my projects and posts - okay? good. thank you.
(above -- little cakes baked today in my new favourite cast iron baking mold. {thank you, b!} they're flavored with lemon from our beautiful lemon tree - which is covered in the fruit right now!)
sending you all sunshine, - kj.

Nice to see your post, again! I love your visual style and enjoy reading your posts about your work. And that is a loveliest baking mold!
I'm glad you're back at it! Also, that baking mold is beautiful.
aw, thanks, ladies! your words are great encouragement to keep on keeping on!
nice to see you back! i've been in exactly the same boat in terms of not photographing...and we're stuck in the deep dark of wisconsin winter- so no good light doesn't help the motivation! it's all cyclical, I guess. and yes- lovely baking mold :)
Hi! I missed you!
What lovely cakes and how nice to have a lemon tree! And please post a photo of the knitted rug. Fun!
megan - JUST after i wrote and posted this blog entry i went to your blog and saw that entry that you wrote! i was going to comment and tell you that it was comforting to see that i wasnt the only one feeling this way, but then (as usual) i got sidetracked. give yourself this time as a little break from it - you know that once the springtime hits you'll be ready and psyched to get back to work! xo!
and leila - thank you!!! i'll try to get up to posting about the rug. (it isnt that great; not exactly how i had envisioned it - but still, it's a pretty cool project!)
That is by far the prettiest baking mold I have ever seen, I think I'd feel bad eating those pretty flowers! I also love that you have your own lemon tree. I've always wanted to live in house with a yard to have a veggie garden...now I want fruit trees too!!
amazing mold!!! your baking is always so inspiring! a lemon tree, omg, u lucky duck! xxoo
