"Mi Lady"

This is one of my prized Theorem’s, given to me years ago by my Dear Friend Mary.
We had a rare occasion to get away for the day , had gone shopping and out
to lunch. We were at the restaurant at Marlboro Barn in CT. when I saw
this Theorem hanging on the wall and remarked how much I liked it. Mary called the
very next day and ask where she could purchase it…the lady at the restaurant gave
her the name of the artist. Mary contacted her, placed an order

and gave it to me as a surprise for my birthday.

I love the piece but it means so much more because of the thoughtfulness of my Friend.

The tag on the back reads: “This is a reproduction of an early silhouette done on velvet
By the Theorem Method. Maura P. Campbell ~~ Hingham, MA ~~ Circa 1800’s

It has hung in various places in the cabin and has always sparked conversions as

to what is going on with the lady ..... who I have yet to name.

I'm not sure if the bowl contains

apples, red onions, red tomatoes, or red potatoes maybe even beets…

but my take at times has been …..

"Mi Lady" cant bear to peel one more.
I have also thought a good title would be

“ A Woman’s Work is Never Done”
Do you think she is feeling Stress, Weariness, Sadness, maybe shes just bone tired.
Could it be just outside our view, is a child or husband who has just tracked

in mud all over her clean floor.

Has she just finished reading a letter from a relative who

has broken some bad news from back home.

or just maybe its been a hard year and she is bowing her head
Thanking the Good Lord for the bounty in her bowl.
I know on different days I see different things. ……

What do you see ???
Hoping your day has great Potential to see all Good Things.
