Contraption
The Call: Die Cutting — Cheryl
Having plenty of cabinets in my new studio makes me happier than I might have imagined. I finally have places for the all of the crafting/creating contraptions I own.
The Response: Tea Kettle — Jessica
I have lots of contraptions on my countertop for the deliverance of caffeine. Now, don’t judge, I know what you’re thinking! But, I ask you, how else is a mother of seven expected to work from 6am to 11pm without stopping unless by the power of caffeine?
My favorite of all them is the simple tea kettle. Because that means it’s teatime. And that means that the day is winding down and I can finally sit for a moment and relax. Sometimes, I even prop up my feet on the coffee table. I know. It’s a luxuriant lifestyle. ; )
Those die cut machines are so cool…if I could get my mind of camera gear long enough I would probably start coveting one of those. ; )
Do you have a pink Francis! Francis! Espresso maker on your counter? I used to, but that caffeine-delivering contraption now resides in a cabinet, ignored. Perhaps once Stella’s finished nursing, I’ll treat myself to the occasional latte.
I’m bad…nursing never stopped my caffeine use. ; )
It never stopped mine either, but I gave up the lattes to cut back on dairy, AND the lattes had usurped tea’s rightful place mid-afternoon. That just wasn’t right. ; )
