It's Yo Gabba Gabba time, break it down!
The Yo Gabba Gabba party was a success and I survived the crafts, the costume and the cake! The YGG costumes were pretty simple. I used fleece and based the costumes on two patterns, Simplicity 2853 for Muno and Brobie...
Let Me Bake Cake(s)
After my six month break, I'm gradually getting back up to speed on this blogging thing, catching you up on the troubles I've been getting myself into. I went through a little cake baking phase and did two weddings and...
Because Deb said so.. and the timing was perfect
It's really not that hard drool and want to make everything that Deb of Smitten Kitchen blogs about. I bookmark just about every other recipe she posts. Add hers to the many other numerous food blogs I keep tabs on,...
More baking than crafting..
but more of nothing than something. I wish I could fill this blog post with wonderful photos of WIPs or FOs but there will be none of that today, tomorrow, in a week or two weeks for that matter. Life...
This is how you get yourself into trouble..
On July 2nd, I received an email about B's sister's annual birthday party/4th of July bbq extravaganza with menu details. I had been planning to make a pie for the party, but according to the email, his sister was going...
Charge it and don't chuck it!
So a little good news and a little bad news. Since my last post I was able to trace out three patterns! Wooohooo! But since then, I haven't done anything, not even wash and press my fabric. I'll get on...
Where is the time going?
In some ways I like that Daylight Savings came so early, and in other ways I don't. More sunlight, good! Dark at 7am, bad! I still can't seem to wake up and we're already over a week into it. Daylight...
My weakness for sweetness
First some crafty updates.. Puff-sleeved cardi is coming along well. I've decided on a sleeve treatment and I'm almost done with the peplum.. peplum, peplum, peplum (that random peplum outburst goes out to Nova)! All that's left is the bottom...
Stay for pie, won't ya?
I have no major crafty updates for you today. But I will let you know that I got some really good ideas for the sleeve cuff treatment. Thanks for everyone who responded! I'll be testing them out this week and...
papaFasu I love you, but the pate sucree will have to wait
papaFasu celebrated another year on Tuesday and being the good daughter that I am, I baked his celebratory dessert. Of course he didn't suggest a thing when I asked him what kind of dessert he wanted. And of course mamaFasu...
Golly Gee Willikers!
Despite the fact that I've been severely lacking in the productivity arena the past year or so, it seems that I still manage to inspire and make people's day. I've been awarded the "You Make My Day" Award by three...
Martha, you're killing me!
This was just not my weekend, folks. What I was anticipating as a nice, wonderful, relaxing weekend just never really unfolded. I'm not going to go into details of the stress ball that's become my life. I'll spare you that...
Breakfast, Lunch and Yum Cha*
I think there are nice little, quiet moments we take for granted sometimes because we're just to busy to remember to slow down, sit for a second and just be. This weekend turned into a lazy weekend of sorts. I...
Stashing, craft allowance... and pie!
There comes a time in every crafter's life where you start to ponder your stash. There's the yarn stash, It's Yarn Pirate, in case you're wondering the fabric stash, and the button stash. There's about another sandwich-sized ziploc bag full...
Baby Shower Countdown
Only two more working days left until the baby gifts are due. As of tonight, the bloomers for the jumpers still remain elasticless. One of the jumpers is actually a dress and the other one is more of a top....
Sweet Monday, Sock Monday
Can you think of a better way to fight the Monday blues than with a yummy lucious dessert? I can't. But before I get into the details of Sweet Monday, let me start with Sock Monday. So you remember Mr....
Winging it
I'm spending Thanksgiving with B's family this year. Mama- and papaFasu are in Thailand until the New Year and the rest of my immediate family has other plans. I went grocery shopping for my Thanksgiving dishes yesterday and the day...
