Winter @ Lake Tahoe

Happy New Year to All of You.

Winter @ Lake Tahoe

2009年即將走到最後了我也還活著呵呵

不免俗的要來寫一下2010年的展望

明年我想要多寫一些網誌多按一些快門多紀錄一些自己的周遭和心情點滴

我還想多做一些烘焙多做一些相編和卡片重新調整和找尋一下工作和生活的平衡點

親愛的朋友們希望妳們都有一個美好順利的2010年

She knows when I am ready, then she can go to the park. Smart doggie. XD

Too tired…

I am recording things that I am thankful for until Thanksgiving… doing my best.

Today I am thankful to have some quality time with Shiao Mei Tan. Paul also took a day off and went to his veteran’s parade.

I took Shiao Mei Tan out to the dog park. It was nice out and glad to play fetch with her. Right now I am making milk bread. Yum! Yum! XD

2009 Waiting…

{CTMH} 關於Workshop on the Go

creativevalerie — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 22:02:55 +0000

一直都沒有時間來跟大家聊一下 Close to my Heart 從今年秋冬目錄以來所做的新改變

以往每一季的目錄都會有5套新的紙張原因不解也不可考但是每一季度是4個月所以秋冬開始就便成了4套紙張

而每一套紙張公司都會設計初不同風格的scrapbook layout 和卡片一方面方便我們安排課程一方面則是提供客戶們更多樣化使用產品的方法

這一系列的課程就是Workshop on the Go 在這裡甚至可以追朔到2008年的秋冬作品

但是Workshop on the Go在秋冬目錄的時後公司也做了一個小小的變化就是每一套紙張的Workshop on the Go 都會有搭配的一套印章(如下圖)

而這套印章是目錄裡面沒有的未來也很可能買不到的印章如果有興趣買紙張的朋友不妨參考看看這個套餐的方式就是Level 2紙張加上這套獨一無二的特色章

只要29.95 另外還送巧克力設計家系列緞帶還有Workshop on the Go guide（一份三摺Tri-fold的教學內有卡片和layout示範還有紙張裁切等等）

每一套Workshop on the Go所附的套餐內容除了紙張和印章之外略有不同

2009 遲來的月餅+最近

creativevalerie — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 00:23:52 +0000

因為中秋節的關係

因為工作的preschool 要給孩子們做月餅的關係

因為很久沒下廚手癢的關係

種種因緣

就這樣今年我親手炒了紅豆和綠豆餡親手做了各50顆綠豆椪和紅豆酥(就是沒放蛋黃的蛋黃酥啦)給學校的同事吃

我參考的食譜都是小米桶的

大家都誇明年可以接訂單了哈哈裡面的層層的酥啊哎可惜我自己都沒吃到幾顆

很多朋友也許知道我在今年4月份因為種種機緣回到久違的幼教職場而再次走回頭路我的心裡有很多很多的感觸也很踏實

有一種迷路逃家的孩子經歷種種抗拒和嘗試之後總算回到溫暖的家的感受我想我的本質是適合當老師的

沒有孩子也和老公約定好不生孩子的我也總算有地方發洩我滿腔的母愛這時候我的手工藝和愛下廚也派上了很大的用場

久違多年第一次和美國的孩子交手也觀察到很多以前沒親眼看過體驗過的文化衝擊

而時間也真的過的飛快轉眼北加州已經入秋了而我們已經進入2009年年底了 9月份開學到目前為止我真的都瘋狂的忙碌我也已經開始上幼教老師的證照課程了這相關的資料我會在找時間更新

這段時間大家都好嗎很想念大家很想念拍照很想念寫網誌我還在尋找平衡點

而我的Close to my Heart 還是我的最愛&心頭肉雖然我已經很久沒時間做作品了 (((心虛中)))

最後如果大家有關於CTMH問題還是建議還是歡迎大家來留言喔
