Season 3

Venture Brothers Season 3 came out on DVD yesterday. David bought it and rushed home early so we could OD on new episodes. We've watched 1 & 2 so many times, that it actually felt strange to not have all the lines memorized. It was awesome, and I can't wait to watch the 2nd disc of episodes tonight. Go Team Venture!

Assymetrical Wrist Deco

Sunday night I finished up these little wrist warmers that I found a pattern for on kpixie.com. I am planning to use them to try and keep my wrists warm at work. In the morning hours I find it's impossible to keep them sheltered from the cold unless I'm going to wear jackets every day, so I think these will be a good solution. Yes, when my wrists get cold, they ache inside, they ache like they are on fire, if that makes any sense. I'm an old-timer, it's official.

Tea and Cake and Lillies

Today Agata and I hauled our cookies all the way to South Coast Plaza so I could go to Paper Source and buy a beautiful photo album for our wedding pictures. We had a lovely lunch, and tea and cake after. I wish I still got to see her every day!

On Saturday we drove out to visit David & Heather, who are really excited that they'll be moving into their first house soon! Lily is getting so big! Her head will soon be bigger than David's :)

Sometimes dinner is breakfast for one. And you eat it standing up in the kitchen. Sometimes it's lovely because you're tired and it's so easy, and so nice to just eat an egg in a basket with tea :)

Grandma Joy

We spent our weekend in Lompoc so I could do recorded interviews of my grandparents and scan a bunch of old photos out of my Grandma Joy's albums. This is her in her front yard on J Street in Lompoc, I just love her dress! I love the edges on all the pictures from back then, and there are so many curious sizes of prints too. I had a wonderful time visiting with them and hearing stories about their lives before I knew them. As a family, we all walked over past Miguelito Elementary, and up to lookout point where you can see the whole town. It's extremely up-hill, and today I am very, very sore. It did make me want to get back to hiking though! Maybe next weekend we can do one here.

Monsters Eat Quebec

The creation is finished!

New Bound Books!

Christine came over to craft last Sunday and I have only now got around to uploading my new books on Etsy. Yay! A cake batter recipe book and a Urban Outfitters sketchbook :)




I have had NO time at all for blogging as work and life have been stressy/packed with errends and things, but today I am at home, decompressing and dreaming my new project enterprises.
