Flash Mob Art

I love this new take on "happenings". The mob art gatherings which occurred in the 60's and 70's. I think that they've taken on a whole wonderful level of innocent fun as opposed to "serious" art that has become politically charged and angry. If this is the future of art I'm happily okay with it. Art should be about uplifting the human soul either through childlike fun or through profound beauty. Offense is not a quality of true art; in my opinion.

Here is one of the best Flash Mobs I've seen. Enjoy and let yourself smile. Thanks Jo Ann for the link.

The Season

Love came down at Christmas;
Love all lovely, love divine;
Love was born at Christmas,
Stars and angels gave the sign.

I know I'm "rushing" things, but honestly it's only 7 weeks till Christmas. I want to enjoy the season. Right now it's 70+ degrees out, but next week is in the 40 so I'll be the weird one on the block with Decorations up already, but I don't mind kick-strting the festivities. Besides I take pride in not freezing my extremities off to hang a few lights.

I also plan on baking my guts out this year. I've already started this with a not so failed, but not perfect attempt at pumpkin sweet rolls. They turned out too dry and I'm thinking over what to about it. I'll be making caramel corn soon, as well as chocolate pecan pie.

I hope your festive mood starts soon and lasts to 12th night.
