Christa was wearing a pair of these new-fangled runner shoes. They are intriguing. May have to check those out

Step aside apples, it's celery I want. From the calming minerals to anti-inflammatory agents, to the fact that it balances alkalinity, and contains healthy, organic salt... Celery is a ROCK STAR of a vegetable. Shot for 7DOS, Weekly theme Favourite Fruits & Vegetables, Texture Tuesday.

From the archives - for 7DoS "In The Street" "Texture Tuesday"

someone would have been here a loooong time to see paint dry to this extent. This'll make for a neat texture in some other creation.

Continued practice from Kim Klassen's Beyond Layers e-Course. Texture used: pumpkingrunge and soft palette.
