Ain’t No Party Like My Nana’s Tea Party

Monday, August 25th, 2008

Saturday night was the big 30 year anniversary party for my parents. I just have to say that it was a rousing success. Excellent food, a huge crowd, tons of drinking and dancing and laughing and more drinking.
Why do I have a picture of the cake instead of my mom and dad? Because I actually [...]

Happy Birthday Jason!

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

Jason turns 34 today! He bought himself a set of drums on Sunday so he got his present early, but it was too good a deal to pass up. Here is the birthday boy, rocking out:

My Easter Egg Bantams arrived yesterday! They are super cute and really, really freaking loud. Hence, they are living in a rubbermaid bin in the sunshine during the day and in the warm garage at night. Here are the new ladies:

This is Twinkle… can you guess who chose that name?

This is Serama the [...]

Drumroll Please: I Used a Pattern.

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

It was a dark, stormy night. (Or rather it was a hot and dry Tuesday. But whatever.) With a steady hand and a practiced eye, I put shears to fabric and created a masterpiece by following a Simplicity 4119 pattern. (I cut myself with the seam ripper and broke two needles.)

I’ve been sewing off and [...]

Say What You Will…

Monday, July 28th, 2008

… But John Mayer kicks ass live. We spent Saturday evening with Phaedra and Joe, rocking out at the Shoreline Amphitheater. I’ve been there several times and have never seen it so packed… it was a little nuts. Regardless, he put on a great show, was funny and seemed to be having a really good [...]

Finally, Some Sewing.

Saturday, July 26th, 2008

Here we have a black and silver cotton dress. It’s from a pattern I designed and very comfy and light, perfect for hot days. And yes, I do harbor delusions of being a can-can girl.

Ok, I think you can guess by now that I do not take good pictures. Never have, never will. Oh, unless [...]

But it’s also too funny not to share. “Because the English can suck my old man balls…”

The Cuteness Factor Is Pretty Much Off the Hook Over Here

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

We got to bring Storm home yesterday! She’s been very busy with 5 minute periods of rapid exploration, followed by immediate curled up snoring naps in the lap of whatever warm body is available. Seriously, there is NOTHING cuter than a kitten.

Curled up in my lap for naptime!

Who is that BEEE-OOOTIFUL kitty in the mirror?

Got My Hair Did

Thursday, June 5th, 2008

Look… I went and got my hair cut today and she straightened it. I love it!! I think I may even be able to pull it off doing it myself. I felt quite posh.
