Eat your veggies!

Orrrrrr! Use them to make some ART!

We all know that fresh vegetables are critical to healthy living... But here at Rancho Durenberger, we believe in "healthy crafting!"

{Yikes! It's a herd of wild POTATO pigs!}

Quick! Get them back in the corral!

Phew! Our pet lamb, Cauliflower, is in her pen!

Her pasture is the greenest! No need to covet thy neighbors grass....

But don't go overboard, though... Grains and proteins are important, too. If you don't have
a well rounded diet, you could turn into Produce Sally... She's had a little... too MUCH ruffage! {hee hee}

It's fun to play with your food... AND, it's healthy!

In case you didn't guess what we're up to, the wee-gal and I were finishing up our PRODUCE ART entries for a local fair...! Today was the LAST step and our last day to deliver exhibits to the Sonoma Marin Fair - tomorrow we'll be regular old civilians, enjoying the fruits {& VEGGIES!} of our labor! Can't wait!

So, yeah, I'm a little paper-deprived, but I couldn't help but share these funny {and somewhat disturbing} creations with my craftiest friends! Hope you're finding some GOOD craft in EVERYTHING you do!

A little slice of Americana!

For your consideration on the 4th of July, I give you my scrumptious little daughter celebrating some sweet victory at a local fair. She submitted work for the first time, as this was her first year of 4H! Although I didn't have time to share a card with ya'll today, I thought you'd enjoy ANOTHER type of creation.... hee hee I give you: my daughter!

We were pretty proud of the diversity of craft this little child completed for the fair! Callan had a marvelous time making her art and then delivering it to the fairgrounds on the various dates of registration and drop off and then, best of all: seeing her ribbons! What a way to kick of summer!

Hope your summer is getting off to a glorious start! Happy 4th of July from all the fine folks and critters here at Rancho Durenberger!
