La Jolla Girl has a playroom and spends more and more time in it drawing. I’ve been hesitant to buy her 6 chairs to go around her art table because nice looking kid sized chairs are a little expensive and I worry about them tipping over.
When she has friends over, I take the paper [...]

I give full credit to Good Housekeeping magazine for this information. I get GH only because I got an email from Amazon.com (did you know that you can order magazines from them?) offering a subscription for a ridiculously cheap price. I’m glad I subscribe because I actually read it every month.

I am totally guilty of not cleaning my brushes as much as I should. I noticed the other day that one of my brushes was, well, just plain gross.
