JANUARY 22, 2024
My hobbies range from reading to painting, pen-and-ink drawing, cooking/baking, and writing. Back when I was engaged and living on my own for the first time (I lived with my parents while in grad school to save on rent), I went to the library a lot and found a copy of the Tightwad Gazette. Makeup, nail polish, and clothes.

Until, that is, she went out to the ‘library’ with her book one day, sat on the outdoor privy and got stung on the bottom by a bee! When the ears were full and ripe she would pull one down and let me make a doll – using the cob for the body, the silk for the hair and the husk for the clothing. it was A-OK with me.

Head to your local craft store and buy a bottle of glow in the dark paint. Using a paint brush paint them with the glow in the dark paint. You can apply reflectors to your clothing and carry flashlights so you are easily seen. It won’t cost you any more than $4.00 Toss them around the yard. Enjoy a theatre night.

I bought a white table cloth (that I had to cut and tape to fit our square table) from Target for $3.50. I purchased cardstock in pastel colors from Target for $4.14, 3 bottles of paint in pink, dark pink, and purple as well as some glitter (that I mixed into the paint for a sparkly effect) from Hobby Lobby for $7.10.
