{life with a curious and crazy 13 yr old}
Duende’s new motto is “Grilled Cheese for Life” which might contradict with her obsession over pickles (and eating pickles with cheese, or yogurt, or really anything) but this kid lives in the mastery of contradictions. It’s generally a beautiful place full of art, dancing, crazy fashion, and laughter. Sometimes it is a messy place of dirty socks, doll clothes, marble runs, and art supplies. It waffles from pop anthems (Black Pink, Sia, & a lot of J. Lo lately) to Edwardian Farm (of the BBC historic farm series/documentaries).
Last week she learned to knit (thank you Fish!), and this week she is practicing her cursive with a quill and ink (she likes to make her own ink, too). She is also crocheting a fox, made cupcakes, is planning her summer art series in her Crow’s Nest, and whipped up a Boxelele that almost really plays (I think she’s moving on to a cigar box uke this week, she has the plans). The snow is already ice and there is more snow on the way, so I am still holding out for a sledding party!
