a weekend of baking

my mother's tuned up  cornbread recipe.she added sugar eggs and lots of butter and while keeping the crumbly consistency turned it cake-like.

it was such a hit last year that i decided to repeat it, christmas fruitcake is somewhat alien here but cornbread ,although not the sweet kind, is familiar to their tastebuds.

now comes the hard part, delivery. everyone's busy during this time finding a spot to coincide with the different agendas is a work of art.

set up the lights so that's down ,need to start working on the xmas card animation.

xmas dinner already thought up and half shopped,tablecloth and napkins need to go to the cleaners. anxiously waiting for tai chi to end this week.

proof of concept

as with all things oriental they are deceivingly simple. there's a whole theory behind drawing plum blossom branches. add that to pointy new brushes and i feel more capable.like the bengara background,what can i say.this is the last practice.

some practice

and then some more.

and for the rest of the week flowers. ume,sakura and momo.

waiting for the holidays to end to do a massive purchase at the french greenhouse. including a weeping plum -ume shidare-and two 20 cms dogwood trees. can't do more in a 20 mt.terrace.
