I have to say, the weather yesterday was not bad at all, 2C (34F) was positively balmy, if a bit wet. It sure beats living in Canada's prairie provinces (like Winnipeg) right now, with dangerous -40C (-40F)wind chills.
L has officially submitted her university applications, hurray! There are some supplementary application forms due next February for a few of the universities, but those can be done in due time.

I thought it was chicken at first, strange .. but I think I see a smile in there somewhere
have a wonderful holiday!
Well, Lissa, I guess a flamingo is a kind of bird! Can't wait to see what you come up with.
I like how you incorporated a holiday item you put out each year into your artwork. Cute! :)
Christine, thank you for doing this and letting us know. I will add it to my side bar now too.
Aww...it's cute. that is the first time i think i have ever thought of a flamingo as festive but you did just that. Good going! Keep it up and thank you especially for joining as your weren't sure you'd do it. i love how you just did it on a sticky note too. Cure. Well, yes, i am with you in seeing with Lissa does and others. I'm sure we will all be inspired.
You are totally right about creativity helping us to get out of ruts, etc. I hope you feel duly enlivened that bit more and add your comments to the others pieces as they come in too.
RE: the video link. isn't that amazing? i love their rendition and had seen on e of their before. Very clever indeed.
Enjoy you almost "balmy" weather while you have that!
BTw, I have noted your icon and this entry so yes, you too get two entries for the prize drawing. i'm excited to see who get picked randomly. Also that is one entry towards the quarterly prize too1 Wooow.
Who drew your flamingo pic for you? It's cute :o)
Hi Christine, just popped over from Mr. T's post. I love your little flamingo. It is a busy time so I put something up I had already done. I think this will be fun. So good hear someone say I am so glad to be a homemaker. The most important job in the world. To make a home.
Blessings

Congratulations to L for submitting her applications! I know any university would be so fortunate to be able to call your smart and talented girl "theirs" :-)
Love your festive flamingo, Christine! I've missed your creative Tuesday drawings, so I'm glad they're back.
Thanks, Lizzie

Queenmother, thanks for stopping by. I do enjoy being at home, surprised how busy it gets.
Japra, I mentioned to L the nice things you had to say about her and she's smiling...thanks.
Christine...what a darling flamingo. I'm with Mr. Toast...I never thought of a flamingo as being Christamsy...but you have changed my perception : ) He looks so friendly and sweet. I really like your blog & will check back in again soon. Happy Holidays!
Hi, I'm submitting my piece to Creative Tuesday too.
Love the little flamingo !
Merry Christmas.
What a festive flamingo with his santa hat! I'm come from Mr. Toasts to see your artwork!
Merry Christmas!
Ah...A festive flamingo! That's a very cute take on the theme...
