In looking for botanical inspiration for my new book, I stumbled across this beautiful photo online by photographer, Steve Stenzel. I love this photo for so many reasons but I especially am impressed by how it represents the life cycle of this particular plant. From the new growth of spring all the way to the end of autumn. I am so drawn to this natural color palette. So much so in fact.. that I showed this picture to the ladies of Spincycle Yarns and they used it in creating a special new colorway just for me. And they did such a phenomenal job! This beautiful yarn perfectly captures the colors of changing leaves. The way that the colors subtly change from one to the next perfectly expresses this idea of the natural life cycle of spring to autumn. I am not usually one to go for multi-colored yarn.. but this one I love. With this yarn I created my "Life Cycle" scarf design. This is an accent scarf consisting of a string of big leaves.. one growing out of the next. It works so perfectly with this yarn and I am so happy with it. This scarf pattern will be included in my upcoming book, Botanical Knits 2. The scarf pattern will call for 2 skeins of Spincycle Dyed in the Wool yarn. This special colorway is called "End of Summer" and is available HERE.

Like other taxonomies, Bloom’s is hierarchical, meaning that learning at the higher levels is dependent on having attained prerequisite knowledge and skills at lower levels. You will see Bloom’s Taxonomy often displayed as a pyramid graphic to help demonstrate this hierarchy. We have updated this pyramid into a “cake-style” hierarchy to emphasize that each level is built on a foundation of the previous levels.

We do Friday Treats at work and last week it was my pod's turn... I brought Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Icing. I'll be honest, I cheated a bit on this one. The cinnamon rolls are store bought, but the icing is still homemade! Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes Recipe: Place individual cinnamon rolls (NOT jumbo size) into cupcake liners in muffin tins. I bought Pillsbury cinnamon rolls (3 packages of 8 rolls) and they fit perfectly. Bake according to instructions on the package (about 8 minutes), remove from oven, and let cool. Ice with Cream Cheese Frosting. Cream Cheese Frosting: 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1 stick unsalted butter, softened 3 3/4 c powdered sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla extract Beat cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until smooth, 2-3 minutes. Gradually add sugar, then vanilla. Makes more than enough to ice 24 cinnamon roll cupcakes. Happy baking!
