I was watching “My Life in Food” and came across the episode with a raw vegan runner and a couple practicing calorie restriction (CR) to extend their lifespan. Like a lot of people, I had a negative gut reaction to the whole concept of calorie restricted lifestyle…right up until she stated that she ate approximately 1600 calories a day. I had to laugh at myself. I mean, I have not eaten that much in a few years!
I am so pleased to announce the release of the January 2010 issue of CQMagOnline.com! It seems like I am always scrambling to get articles and Readers’ Showcase submissions. However, this issue it was particularly rough on me, because of family obligations and an acutely ill dog. For that reason, I want extend a very special “thank you” to everyone who contributed to this issue and our two sponsors, Maureen’s Vintage Acquisitions and Evening Star Designs.
This turned out to be a lovely issue, with lots of projects and ideas. New staff member, Dakotah Davis’ offers up her debut articles with a fabric fusion method and a needlebook project; Victoria Adams Brown has given us a sneak peek at a covered tin from an upcoming publication; Maureen Greeson shares a vintage embroidery design; Lynn Schoeffler figures out a clever way to use wire as a tree trunk embellishment; Sharon Boggon explores storage solutions; Allison Aller takes the reader along for a visit to River Silk; and so much more!
I certainly hope you will take the time to read through this issue and try out some of the techniques, projects, products and ideas.
OK, so my ex-husband was the first to mention how long it had been since I updated my blog…but he was not the only one. My blog has become a victim of FaceBook.
I thought I would share a few dog photos here too.
The first is Princess, being a snarly pants on command and being a sweetie. Plus, a photo of Rudy before the vet school shaved his belly.
