I can&#8217;t believe I have a daughter 30 years old!<\/p>\n<p>I was a mother at 30, and I felt like an adult. Yet it&#8217;s an odd feeling that my own daughter is 30 and going to be a mother. No wonder my parents treated me like a child when I was 30. I promise myself I would not treat my adult children like young children.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t like the idea of going to LA &#8211; traffic, no parking, homeless encampments&#8230;but it is a fun diverse city. I like going in a group, especially if I don&#8217;t have to drive. Thank God my husband is a good driver and skillful at\u00a0parking. But I wouldn&#8217;t go there on a date, just the 2 of us.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>I believe everyone is creative. Creativity is expressed in different ways.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve gone through many creative seasons of crafts &#8211; sewing, rubber stamping, mop dolls, paper making, stitchery, etc. etc. I was never that interested in drawing or painting, mostly crafts.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe they were more like hobbies. I don&#8217;t do any of that anymore. Michael&#8217;s and Joann&#8217;s used to be my favorite stores, now I rarely go.<\/p>\n<p>Now I am into making fresh wreaths and kombucha \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I successfully brewed my first batch. It tasted great! I invested less than $7 for a fresh SCOBY (<span style=\"color: #222222\">symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast)<\/span> from Amazon, followed the instructions on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youbrewkombucha.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">You Brew Kombucha<\/a>, and waited for the fermentation to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Today I bottled my second batch. Trying different flavors.<\/p>\n<p>I hope to have time this week to make another fresh wreath from eucalyptus. The lavender wreath I made is now dried, but it still looks good because lavender wreaths look good when it&#8217;s dried or fresh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday we went to eat in LA to celebrate Audrey&#8217;s 30th.
