I just have to share the wonderful curio cabinet that my hubby has built to hold the bulk of my remaining Orient doll (etc) collection. Solid oak, mirrored back and bottom, glass shelving, and drawers big enough to not only hold extra sofa pillows and fleeces, but any games that would otherwise not fit in our games drawers in the pantry.

His next project is a "jump box" for daughter Súl's crossfit training exercises. After that, I think we're going to tackle either the bathroom or the kitchen, as both need some serious repairs and/or upgrades. Comes with living in a 100+ year old house that hasn't seen renovation since the 70's...

Every once in a while, one hears from a reader who then proceeds to make a person feel like they're walking on air. A couple of days ago, a reader did exactly that to me.

She had read in here when I did my 2010 Fanfiction Year in Review, my list of things I would love to see illustrated - and then she went ahead and gave me one of the illustrations I had said I would like. She is a very talented lady, and I was overwhelmed by the idea that she liked "In The House of Elrond" well enough to take the time to do such a fantastic job of illustration.

In order to not encumber the screens of those with narrow setting, I'm gonna put it under the cut - but do take a look. Needless to say, I'm working on acquiring the original, which I will frame and hang on my wall. There are few finer ways to tell a writer you appreciate their work than this, I swear.
