The fabric of (holiday) time

12/20/2024

0 Comments

 
It's the weekend before Christmas, and it's far too late to order this fun fabric for this year, but it's a perfect time to order it so you're ready extra early for next year!
And if Christmas is not your thing, I have some spring motif patterns you might like.
Just check them out at my Spoonflower shop!
Have a restful, low-stress holiday season. See you in the new year!

An early Christmas present for me!

It's great to be recognized by the American Librarians Association (like Queen of Physics was), or Junior Library Guild, Kirkus, and Horn Book (all three of which have snubbed my books), but it's even better to have my book recognized by a world-renowned institution like the Smithsonian. My friends who don't have kids or who aren't in the publishing industry are much more impressed by the Smithsonian.
You can imagine my complete delight that Clouds In Space was picked by Smithsonian Scholars as one of 11 "best books of 2024"!!! It is the only kids book on the list!


For those who are in the kid lit world, this other recognition for Clouds in Space might be more impressive. This book made one of Betsy Bird's coveted year end lists. I think only one of my other books have been noticed by her, so this was fun to see. Check this this rather niche category of "fabulous photography for kids" books. I am so glad I insisted on including photos from NASA, which was part of my original vision when I wrote the first draft of this book in 2014.

Making these lists is truly an early Christmas present for me...one that I didn't know I wanted so much!

Food feast

Thanksgiving at our house was mercifully quiet and uneventful. We ended up with a turkey this year, along with the usual sides like cornbread dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, and even a green bean casserole.

But the highlight for me is usually dessert. This year, I made a pecan pie and...oddly...a strawberry pie. We had a bunch of strawberries in the freezer from our abundant summer harvest and it seemed like a good idea to clear some out.

And because Kid1 was home for the holiday, I also made cinnamon buns (a very close facsimile of the famous University of British Columbia ones). Mmmm!
