Murder at the Greenhouse

Written by:

Maciek MC’ed a murder mystery party at the greenhouse this summer. He even made up a fancy website for it. It was well attended (23 people), and had all the scandal, intrigue, and betrayal that we’ve come to expect from murder mystery parties.

It was such a big deal that it was featured in the local newspaper not once, but twice!

Blacksmithing

Written by:

The Great Northern Arts Festival came to town recently.

There were a whole bunch of skilled craftsmen in town running workshops, so I took one on blacksmithing. Over the course of a few hours, my hammer, furnace and I created three things, which are now fully functional around our house:

A simple coat hanger
A simple coat hanger
A fancier coat hanger
A fancier coat hanger
A zany bottle opener
A zany bottle opener

All in all, a super interesting day dabbling in a new skill.

My blacksmithing teacher, showing off the bottle openers that he, I and the other student made.
