"If life wanted to hand me lemons, I'd not only make lemonade, but I'd use the zest for cookies, plant seeds for future fruit and turn the rind into compost to grow flowers, all the while giving thanks for lemons."
Now how about that? With such attitude, anything is possible! If we translate the lemon talk to human language and take a look at Bridgette, it's no wonder she's just as many things as she suggets - a portrait artist, sculptor, writer, educator, wife and mom and a public speaker on topics such as marketing, social media, business of art, creativity, progressive education and spirituality. Food Lemons for thought, anyone?

Was interesting to read about the Christmas in Russia...I didnt know..
ReplyDeleteHi Julia!
ReplyDeleteI've been 'missing-in-action' for far too long so I decided it's time to visit the blogosphere again.
How is Christmas in Russia? Does it snow where you're at? Here in California it's been raining non-stop. Lazy, lazy weather..
Hope you're enjoying the holidays! Merry Christmas! :)
definitely, maybe

ReplyDeleteSounds like a really interesting topic. Can I take some parts of your text for my essay? I'll use https://paperap.com/essay-plagiarism-checker-students/ to make sure that I didn't take too much.
