My car reeks so bad I can hardly drive it. WHAT is in there? WHERE is it? WHY god? A few months ago there was the unfortunate chicken salad incident. Months ago! The drop of chicken salad can not have resurrected itself in order to smell up my car again. Can it have? It I [...]

When my mom realized I was interested in art she brought me home a book about mary cassatt, to be a positive female role model I guess. So she was how I learned about the impressionists, not through her  (now, seemingly) more well known male contemporaries like degas and such. Inever quite forgave herfor not [...]

I do not need a serger but I sure would like one! Think of the pretty seams and the rad cutting thingy! It means I could have decent looking unlined items, and that’s the rub, lining stuff is a pain in the ass but if you don’t line stuff it looks like shit. Will I [...]

Also, LUSH beauty products are fabulous, although, whenever I go into the store over by Union Square I get overwhelmed. My sister bought me the book The Orphan’s Tales – Into the Night Garden for Christmas. It’s so good and I’m only halfway done. I did start it on Christmas but it was so good [...]

Hola, bitches. check out this cute zippered monster pouch from stitchpixie. So cute! If you buy me it I will grant ‘favors’. I think the word ‘pouch’ ranks right up there with the word ‘moist’ as being a really horrific word. A word I can be totally against. ‘Pouch’ reminds me of that screeching weasel [...]

Okay, I know this is supposed to be my craft blog but I’ve got to keep track of my new workout regime… publicly… here.. on the internet… for some reason… ANYHOO Me and two other women are sharing a personal trainer for six weeks, 4 days a week for out of doors ass kicking working [...]

I’ve always been a bit of a homebody. I recall my second semester of college living at the coop in Austin – everyone else: taking drugs and going out, me: taking drugs and staying home on the couch reading waiting for everyone else to come home. Okay, maybe it was just that one time with [...]

Score

First off I am testing scribefire to post this. I hope it works correctly. I made the mistake of leaving the house today and it means that I bought a bunch of crap. But, score! I got some good stuff. Including some jeans and footie pajamas for Jack and a pair of boxers with robots [...]

I’m excited about 2008. I spent too much time in 2006/07 wallowing in miserable pregnancy and recovery. I’m feeling better now and have drugs to make me feel even better. I haven’t looked directly at 2008 yet but I can see it shimmering in my peripheral vision like a mirage, if I look too closely [...]

Y’all will look at this and be all like, “girl, why did this take you so fucking long”? And I’ll, be all like, “Dude, you do realize you are looking at the 50 trillionth version. Step off”! This is the pattern I use to make spats for my ankle boots. The split toe look is [...]

Welp, here it is in all it’s glory – the fuckity fuck fuck cross stitch. I’m rather pleased with it.I enjoyed doing the cross stitching even tho I can easily see it making me go blind and get RSI. I’ve been obsessively watching the TV show Jericho while finishing up this project. Crossstitch is good [...]

Mamapajama informed me that people make a whole piece of clothing out of muslin before they make it out of the actual fabric to make sure it fits right and stuff.  “MADNESS”, I said.. However, I decided to do just that in order to make some steampunk inspired spats for Whump. I’ve never amde ones [...]

Hola, Bitches!
