Looking at these pictures brings me back to the old art room at St. Mary's. There was always loads of cool art stuff to experiment with and if I finished my projects early (and I almost always did), Mrs. Rondello would let me start a new project of my choice using anything on the shelves.
Now that I think about it, it's no wonder my office looks like it does. I've apparently been trying to recreate that art room my entire adult life! ;)
And now that I'm traveling down memory lane it also occurs to me that Mrs. Rondello was the initial force behind what became my infatuation with poetry. In the 7th or 8th grade she had us memorize poems, one of which was The Jabberwoky. I can still recite it to this day.
