I love this new hair color brand I found. It’s called Adore by Creative Image and the color I used is Raspberry Twist. It does not stain your hands, face, tub, towels or pillow case!! That’s the miracle part. If you’ve ever dyed your hair a weird color you will understand the messy goopy misery [...]
I woke up at 5am thinking about interest rates. I knew that rates for mortgages fluctuated but it hadn’t occurred to me that they would fluctuate so much that suddenly you wouldn’t be able to afford the houses that you were looking at. I mean, we could technically be able to pay it but then [...]

Okay! I am officially VERY EXCITED. Also, VERY NOT PREPARED. You like how I did not prepared in all caps and bold? I’m trying to emphasize. Do you get it? The universe is laughing up it’s sleeve at me. Some time last week I was on the phone with a friend telling her all about [...]
The retun of captain you know who Originally uploaded by Minniekins We took Mr. Pants for his annual Monterey Bay Aquarium visit on Wednesday. It was fun but strangely exhausting and jack napped for a total of about 15 minutes. On the way back I confessed that I had a deep burning desire to stop [...]
It’s true you can get any fabric you desire on the internet but nothing beats going into a good fabric store so that you can paw all the fabrics, haul the bolts around, compare and get overwhelmed in person. (my R key is sticking and it is very annoying) I almost bought some of that [...]
I bought these at Sorelle Bacci in Florence. Those four are Liberty of London – two are lawns, one is a stretch cotton and the other is maybe a silk. The price was really good and I love these! Now, what to do with them? I’m thinking a skirt and maybe a nice short summer [...]
IMG_1293.JPG Originally uploaded by Minniekins I don’t know why I keep going to the Goodwill near my house. I almost never find anything I want and all the clothes have that shitty polyester feel of clothes from Forever 21. However, this trip I found a couple of cute things. A bathing dress (my old one, [...]
Have 5 or so cupcakes, baby!
I love this Ada Lovelace entry by Sydney Padua. She wrote and drew a good comic for it – Ada Lovelace the ORIGIN!. Go read it!
Vim put Jack to bed last night while I was upstairs sewing and watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I came down tot eat and heard a piping little voice saying, “mama? mama?” And so I had to go in there to give him a kiss and to lay him back down. He tried to scam [...]
So I was researching iPhone apps for the crafting world and came across this news item for a future iPhone app that will let you take a picture of a tree and then will identify it for you. How rad is that? When that happens it will be great, but until then I would like [...]
I’ve actually been doing a fair amount of crafting but somehow have not posted about any of it! I don’t know why! Right now I am getting ready for the May 30th and May 31st Maker Faire Bazaar Bizarre down in San Mateo. Take a look at the Bazaar Bizarre vendor gallery to see all [...]
DEAR MOTHER OF GOD! Repetitive 2 year old games are killing me. Also, having to read the same book 5 times in a row, especially if it is a boring one like “machines at work”. How many times can I have princess mouse hide under the blanket? How many times can princess mouse push the [...]
