Oooo, the countdown has begun! I'm putting the finishing touches on my segment this Sunday on FaveCrafts Radio. In some ways, 10 minutes can be a loooooong time; in some ways, how am I going to say everything I want to?! FaveCrafts has set up another designer page for me: http://www.favecrafts.com/Craft-Designers/Phyllis-Serbes and Caley Walsh has been blogging about the upcoming show too: http://www.favecraftsblog.com/favecrafts-radio-march-21-2010/
FaveCrafts Radio is a weekly radio show hosted by Tiffany Windsor with creative ideas and your favorite craft experts and celebrities. FaveCrafts Radio airs live on BlogTalkRadio on Sunday nights from 7 – 8:00 pm (ET) (6 pm Central, 5 pm Mountain, 4 pm Pacific).

I'm really looking forward to hearing what Mark Montano is going to talk about. He's got a book called Big Ass Book on Home Decor, and he's going to give away 2 autographed copies during the show!
Ok, time to face the real world!
Today's Thought: Food Rule # 17 -- Eat only foods that have been cooked by humans. I think this is Mr. Pollan's way to remind you not to eat processed foods that have way too much salt, fat, and sugar in them. Now, he also points out the human chefs in restaurants often cook with too much salt, fat, and sugar too, so he advises treating eating out as a special occasion. I have to admit, we eat out probably at least 1 or 2 times a week, but we try to pick restaurants that we know have healthy choices and use local fresh ingredients.

What a Week!
So, of course, this week was all about catching up on everything that didn't get done during the "Snowmaggedon". Whew, I'm tired and think I need another chance at being trapped in with snow :-)
My exciting news for the week was that I've been invited to be a guest speaker on a craft blog talk radio show! I'm in the process of picking a topic and date to be on the show and will provide all the details when they are firmed up.
I've hit 101 tips on the Crochet Guru website, yippee (though I'm not sure if it happened within the self-imposed deadline or not, but whatever). Now, I need to concentrate though on adding more tips that can be part of the 101 tips booklet I want to put together. Please, please leave me any questions or suggestions you might have for tips you'd like to see in the book.
Which brings me to Today's Thought, which I'm going to do a little differently today. I was talking with an amazing woman last night. She's a crafter and a reiki specialist (but that's for another post). She wants to start her own business but just hasn't done it. I think we all struggle with getting started on projects that we know we want to do, but just can't seem to get done. I think the key is to set an Action Item for yourself. Just pick one small piece or step in the project to do, putting all the other steps and obstacles out of your mind for now. For example, I have not worked on Mom's Vest for 2 weeks :-(. My action item for this weekend is to rework the back panel. If I do more, great, but all I'm asking of myself is to just get done the back portion -- it's an achievable step for which I know what I need to do. By telling you all about it (and promising to report back on my progress), I'm hopefully setting up support yet accountability with you all. That's it, hope this tidbit helps you start something you've been wanting to do, but have not yet started!
