a couple more small things

So, a few more things for Feb 18 that I can hardly call “things”:

First, I finally finished the triptych of my sister dressing for her wedding. This involved printing yet another 5×7, adjusting the brightness ever so slightly (I did this at FedEx-Kinkos, not in my darkroom). And finally placing it in the frame.

I have obsessively adjusted the pictures so many times the little tabs that hold the back of the frame on all broke this time. But I figured out a way to put it together.

And finally, I was thinking today after buying fresh mint, dill, and parsley (I’m making stuffed grape leaves later in the week): I really like fresh herbs but I don’t like it when they wilt in the refrigerator. A good way to prevent this is to rinse the herbs and wrap them, still damp, in paper towel. But I don’t really like to waste paper toweling, either. So I “made” this:

I use the word “made” very loosely because as you can see all I did was cut some rectangles of washed muslin and wrapped my herbs in them.
