Smirk
What has four legs, is big, green, fuzzy, and if it fell out of a tree would kill you? A pool table.
Bye Ophelia!
Ophelia has come and gone with much ado here in the Northeastern corner of South Carolina. Horry County schools were closed for two days, as were some local businesses were closed. Ophelia mainly delivered massive amounts of rains and some wind here; there’s lots of brush everywhere, but very little damage. This very gloomy picture taken Tuesday at 6:30 pm […]
Dollar Store Swap
Here’s a picture of the stuff I’m mailing out today for my dollar store swap. For this swap, participants bought 10 things from the local dollar store to mail to their swappee. In actuality, nothing was handcrafted, but I think it still counts as “craftiness” because I’m mailing it to a crafty gal.
Little Guy
I met this little guy yesterday at a friend’s house. He was such a cutie, I thought I’d share. Alternatively, this photo looks like an ad for my Canon.
I’m an angel..haha
For the final mailout (4th) of my Angel’s & Mortals Swap, I tried to make my mortal a few cool items. I sent her a mermaid doll, a chocolate/baking book, chocolate coffee, some sampler goodies, homemade candy bar brownies & recipe, a decoupaged box, and some collages I made with a chin colle’d digital print & ribbon. Close up of […]
Boomerang joke
What do you call a boomerang that doesn’t work? A stick. One day I’m gonna learn how to throw those things….
The Exorcism of Anneliese Michel
Last night, Rob took me to see The Exorcism of Emily Rose (or did I take him, hmm…) I loved the movie, but I’m a sucker for god vs. satan horror; my favorite movie ever is The Omen. As this movie claims to be based on true events, I put together a little list of links that refer to the […]
Saturday
This morning I went to the MUST SEE event of the year, er….week–South Carolina’s Largest Garage Sale. It’s held in a 4-story parking garage by the Pavilion Amusement Park. I bought one of the most seriously bizarre pictures I’ve ever seen–for a dollar. I should post a picture of this unique find; it is completely perplexing to me, and maybe […]
Hot, Hot, Hot!
I thought I’d share a few of the handmade things I sent to AmandaJ for the August Swap of the Month–Favorite Fruit. AmandaJ’s favorite fruit was the Hot Pepper. I had so much fun concocting stuff for this swap; I love hot peppers too!
Mirza Ghasemi
When I was living in Durham, one of my favorite restaurants was Cafe Parveneh in Chapel Hill. Serving traditional Persian cuisine, one of my favorite dishes was Mirza Ghasemi. i submitted my own tasty version of this veggie treat to the vittles.
Sink Babies
This morning when I was getting ready, I had to move to another bathroom. I didn’t want to disturb my pretty girls in the sinks.
Olmsted Stamp
This shouldn’t really count as a craft, but I have a lot of things to post over the next days. I got these Frederick Law Olmsted (the founder of American landscape architecture) stamps and framed them to send to a few friends from grad school.
