Dear God

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Thank You so much for being so awesome.
Thank You for the work You have been sending our way! You are so faithful.
One small request: could You please take away my sugar cravings? And could You please keep my face from breaking out?
Thanks so much. You are the coolest!
love,
me

Ssssssssss

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

I started to write a “woe is me post” today — the camera is on the fritz, so I haven’t been able to take and share photos of the food I’m making… money is really tight, so it’s not like I’m making much in the way of exciting food anyway… plus money woes have a [...]

Baby names

Friday, February 26th, 2010

There must have been something in the water or the air 9 months ago, because I seem to be looking at photos of newborn babies, bred by my friends, everywhere!
I’m feeling a little left out of this season’s must-have accessory, but alas, there’s no way I can afford one at the mo’. [...]

Here I am!

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Hey guys!
Sorry for the silence on this end. I’ve been working on this project for the past few weeks, one I’ll tell you about when I’m allowed. But thank you for your concern, and I’m sorry to have worried you! Planning on shooting some Aarti Paarti’s real soon!
For today, I’m relaxing in [...]

New favourite brekkie!

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

It literally hurts my left ventricle that I don’t have a camera to take a photo of the joy that is my new favourite breakfast. Hopefully, it’ll sound so good, that you’ll be enticed to try it, with or without a seductive photo!
Actually, here’s an idea!
If you like this recipe enough to [...]

Winter Wonderland

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Ah my loves… I have abandoned you, no?
No!
Bren and I are back from our holiday in North Carolina. Man, was it good! And I almost feel bad talking about it, ‘cos it seems so many people had a difficult holiday in 2009: heartbreak, family illness or heck, just wanting the struggles of 2009 [...]

Where’s Waldo (aka aarti)?

Saturday, December 19th, 2009

Hey y’all!
I’m sure you’ve been BESIDES yourself wondering where I am.

I’m in Orlando, and we’re about to drive up to the rural mountains of North Carolina for a snowy Christmas. I’m so excited. One snowstorm just hit NC yesterday, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a white Christmas. [...]

Contact Lens Racket!

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

I need new contact lenses. And I need them, like, yesterday. So, I call up my eye doctor, and ask for my prescription so I can hunt around to find the best price.
First, the woman on the phone tells me that my prescription has expired. Therefore, no one will fill my [...]

Baaaaa… humbug!

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

It’s Rudolph the red-nosed… sheep!

Ain’t he cute? I just finished making him.
He seems to like perching on Bren’s shoulder, sort of like a parrot would perch on a pirate’s shoulder.

He’s the Jiminiy Cricket to Bren’s Pinnochio!
Want him to sit on YOUR shoulder? Come to the show this [...]

Christmas pressies and oatcakes

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009

I’m up to my ears in craftiness right now! Not only am I sewing Christmas pressies (No I can’t show you! As much as I want to! What if the future recipients are watching?!), I’m also crocheting this little reindeer for potential sale at the Jive Joint, a monthly art-music-improv event thrown [...]
