Happy weekend! ❤️🎄💃

Today’s FUN - continuing to ice/decorate each cookie in stages - by colors and sections! I add royal icing pieces/large sprinkles/decor items individually with tweezers as applicable! 💃🎄🎅🧑‍🎄

Headline: Tariffs have cost average household almost $1,200 since Trump’s return: Democrats "In a report released Thursday, the committee found that consumers paid more than $158 billion as a result of the additional levies from February to November. That marked an average of more than $1,197 per household during that period, with the average monthly cost rising from more than $54 in February to more than $181 in November."

I LOVE poinsettias, but they are dangerous for cats, so I must settle for faux poinsettias! 🎄🎅❤️🎄

Merry everything happy always!

“Bullhorn Bulletin” today in Keizer, Oregon!

Appreciated-the honks/support! Most impactful moment was when a guy walked up to thank us-almost in tears-currently in fear for his immigrant mother. 😢

Important conversation. But the conclusion understates the case. It is not that handing Russia the huge territory that contains Ukraine’s best defenses would “not necessarily” bring peace. It is that so doing would guarantee a bloodier and longer war.

Presenting my 2025 “Medusa Headpiece!”💥🐍

I did my first shoot of the incomplete costume last night in my studio.
Looking forward to Jeanne’s arrival in 2 weeks-we can both shoot in the complete costume-assistance will be required!
I even made matching snake earrings!

Halloween countdown!

I can finish my new Medusa headpiece today if I quit embellishing snakes! (I have enough, already!😆🐍)

I just need to glue all the of the snakes on, which will take a little while as I will attach a few at a time.
