QUOTE

 Many faiths there be but the Spirit is one. In you, an’ in me, an’ in ‘im. That means if every man of us believes in the Spirit within ‘im, us’ll all be united. Let everyone be ‘imself, an’ us’ll all be as one.

( Leo Tolstoy, ‘Resurrection’)

My friends Matt and Justin bought a lot of colored glass and Justin asked me to make some templates and he went back to Chicago with these five. I'm exited to see what he can make of them.

A good meal must contain the colors of Africa: red, yellow and green! The red is beets, carrots and tomatoes, the yellow is eggs and potatoes, the green is lettuce.
