Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake

Sometimes life is hard.
Sometimes life is just a little bland.
We're stuck in one reality, and we want to know what it's like from a different perspective.
Just a little escape would be nice, whether it be by car, through music and dance, or...

...dressing up! You can be anything you want to be! No matter how old you are, I bet just a little bit of you got a little excited right?

Clowns! Or maybe just someone who needs a haircut.

Let's speculate on what this one might be.

Just ready to save the world...

Why be one angry pig when you can be TWO with a buddy?

Witches on a night out!

To live a life where eating, sleeping, purring, and
silently judging is all I need to do....I'm in.

...Otter???

After all, the shoe doesn't have to fit to have fun!

International Yarn Bombing Day
June 9, 2012

I'm a little late on this, but it's certainly not too late for this event to bring a smile to our faces!

I recently spent a week at a chamber music intensive, and during our ice-breaker at the beginning of the week, we met a pianist who mentioned a fun fact about himself: he loved to knit! How much he loved it, we didn't know until a very special day:

International Yarn Bombing Day is a day when knitters leave knitted graffiti all over the public. What a fun and creative alternative to spray paint :)

Our pianist friend managed to make us all smile with his two yarn bombs:

The funny part is that the statue is part of an on-campus museum, and in a few short hours the yarn bra was confiscated and reported as vandalism. Can't we all just appreciate good art on art? But no one will be able to take the hydrant's jacket off; it's knitted shut on there :)

We even caught a passerby taking a picture of the hydrant, and because of that, our knitting pianist made a new friend.

Creativity is such a blessing.
