Lest we forget the meaning of Memorial Day, I wanted to share this beautiful thought-provoking photo again: “All gave some, and some gave all.”
Regardless of what part of the planet you’re from please take a few moments to honor in your heart all the men and women, both fallen or still serving, who made our freedom possible. To them we owe all.

This long weekend is very special to me for another personal reason. Yesterday Robert and I celebrated our 40th Anniversary and we’re enjoying taking some time off to relax and treasure our sweet memories together. And speaking of sweet stuff …
Here’s a super-easy tangle for you, perfect for the day that unofficially begins Summer! Kandy Ribnz is shared with us by tangler Cheryl Wilson and it’s her first on the site.
Cheryl “discovered” Kandy Ribnz while learning the official tangle Echoism.
“While trying to learn Echoism I found that I was making a mistake. In true Zentangle spirit, I made it work the best I could and found I liked it. Then I thought it looked like Pressed Wood (Prestwood). But there is a difference that cannot be ignored. It is not the same. It is neither Echoism nor Pressed Wood.”
Cheryl illustrates the step-by-step instructions for drawing Kandy Ribnz here on her blog, and uses her tangle here in a completed Zentangle.
Check out the tag cherylw for more of Cheryl’s patterns on TanglePatterns.com.
