Funtastic Friday #552

Time for all your lovely links! 
But first, here's what's been happening here. Just a few pics.

For the first time ever, I used a green papaya from our papaya tree . What an interesting fruit. When picked early and eaten green the papaya is not sweet. It has a snappy crunch like a carrot and a bite similar to a kohlabi. It's a great source 
with vitamins and minerals  especially A , C and magnesium.
These are the results of my  run at making homemade vinegars . The papaya leaf for medicinal purposes and the strawberry pear for recipes. It will take a month to ferment. Stay tuned.
Oh and did I mention I have a tile project going?
I had a vintage umbrella that was falling apart and I decided to give it a second life using mixed media art. #workinprogress.


Mermaid Seashell Ornaments Class too!
The beginning of a thank you card using watercolor and stamps.
And this is the image I sent to the college to represent my Mixed Media Art classes at Pensacola State College CE . I'll be teaching there in the Fall. 


Ok , enough of my past week. Show me your blogs.
