Can you get an electric kettle and get your coffee in individual bags? More diversity, time saved, less mess, and faster with a kettle. It can be used for everything. From my understanding, they are faster than microwaves.Charlotte Fairchildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11172408310161822867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5688908313072210008.post-24117359414372877702012-07-30T13:08:53.190-04:002012-07-30T13:08:53.190-04:00Thank you Cynthia and Laura.

"No Expectations" is the best way to move forward with peace and dignity.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07406735207882613409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5688908313072210008.post-25804148052211818462012-07-30T12:59:06.040-04:002012-07-30T12:59:06.040-04:00PS: Thank you Cynthia for your comments above!PS: Thank you Cynthia for your comments above!laura von roskhttp://www.lauravonrosk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5688908313072210008.post-81669829105259432402012-07-30T12:58:28.686-04:002012-07-30T12:58:28.686-04:00Sam – you shouldn’t worry!

Besides - the “style" celebrated by an artist’s audience could possibly be a curse! <br /><br />A person’s reaction/response is their own, and if Antarctica is going to “ruin” them – then I would bet they were on shaky ground already… but there is a flip side to that - the possibility that the audience is just not ready for the change, but the artist is growing and feels compelled to explore their own new territory. They shouldn’t be held hostage to what the “audience” wants.<br /><br />I am so grateful I was able to experience a place I never thought I would see. The experience and the visual images in my mind have made a mark on me – DARN – I am CURSED! <br />:-)<br /><br />I hope there is a good response to my new work, but if not, it doesn’t matter. The measure of the work for me is how engaged I feel in it, AND - I’m not finished painting dive holes! <br /><br />Thank you again for a wonderful - AWESOME adventure on the ICE!laura von roskhttp://www.lauravonrosk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5688908313072210008.post-43789385161279442142012-07-26T23:12:05.268-04:002012-07-26T23:12:05.268-04:00Hi Sam ~
You should never be concerned with this ...Hi Sam ~<br /><br />You should never be concerned with this issue of an artist keeping their "style." With a mature artist, there is no choice; it's the equivanent of their handwriting and does not change with subject matter. Laura's new Antarctica paintings are as magical as her forest scapes! She obviously benefited greatly from being on the expedition and her paintings focus on a unique aspect of your team's "dive research work" that a photographer may have missed. Bravo to you both!Cynthia Pannuccihttp://www.asci.orgnoreply@blogger.com
