Apparently, that’s my new nickname. I suppose it is better than “toad” the only real nickname I have ever had and that was back when I was just a portly baby. I think it faded before I was even walking. Tuff dreamer is rather fitting and comes from the wu-tang nickname generator that my son discovered while podcast binging. You can discover your nickname and leave it in the comments if you’d like. I am not so sure how tuff I am anymore, I used to be ‘tuffer’ but I am and hope to always be a dreamer.
My goal to post here every single day for 30 days was unintentionally washed away long before the 30-day mark, but I am still here wanting to write/share, between watching virtual back to school town hall meetings about the upcoming school year, making clay watercolor sets, and working out ideas for new online workshops. I am excited (and strangely nervous) to share what I have planned and I hope to share it in the next few days.

This week I made these white bean burgers! The perfect picnic table food!
This article - it’s a great one to read slowly with a cup of tea or glass of something good.
my favorite purchase in a long time… this ice cube maker. Our freezer only makes a small amount of ice and since I started using it this summer we are always out, so I ordered this metal tray, no aftertaste, just big, beautiful blocks of ice. I used to hate ice, I mean really hate it, especially in a drink without a straw where it might touch my lips, until this summer. I don’t know what changed my mind, but now I love a glass of cold water and these ice cubes make it so much better, even though I still need a metal straw.
