so many things I'd say if only I were able / but I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by

Yesterday mom and I took the bus and went off to the World Trade Center to the Baking Thing-a Majing.
It was fun.
And let me just say, those huge blocks of 1 kilo cream cheeses, that they have for display,  have never looked so good. Whenever I get to heaven I hope God gives me a room made our of cheese. With bacon sheets. 

And a pizza pillow.

Ho-hum.

Guess what my mom did buy me though.
A whisk!
And it's orange. 



I put macaroons just because.


Let's take a little trip back in time. I never did get to post a picture of the things I gave Via when she came to the Philippines for a while. I must say, it was an excellent day. Full of talk and bacon. 

Here are a few things I placed inside her package:

Hope Was Here - Joan Bauer
A Felt Watch Stuck At Three 
Some Pizza Clips (made my Sister of Awesome)
Star Shoelaces
Sorcerers Stone Ring 
and other things.

Some photos of our adventure.


We got Via addicted to felt.


Her amazing artistic ability came through. One hell of an awesome BACON ring folks!


Enjoying some laughs.
But that is only cause we fail at being all serious and such.
We are such pathetic models.
Good thing our photographer was a tripod.


And last but not least our hipster photo.
This girl ya'll is the bacon to everybody's eggs.






This is my cupboard. Or at least the top part.
Sad to say this is actually a week old picture which means that it doesn't actually look like that anymore. It has little bits of paper littered everywhere and a stack of books I brought down from the attic for some light reading before bed. And by light I mean, "I am going to finish this book before I shut off!"
Hehehe.

 Now, back to the present times.
Here is a definite must have.
I know I should sell it, but really? Come on. Look at it's awesomeness.
However, I need the money and I know someone out there will love it almost as much as I do.
I say almost because that crown was hard to satin stitch. 






And you all know it speaks the truth right?

build a wall / build a fortress around my heart


What do you give 12 year old girls, when Barbie dolls become so passé, but they just haven't discovered what ever we did at that age? Remind me, what was it again?
Hmm. Transition was fun.
Not.

However, moving on to different things. I struck gold. Like, really.

I don't, for a fact, often give my 12 year old girl cousins Christmas presents cause I usually draw a blank when I try to think of what to give (Especially, since some are generally opposed to pink. And lavander. And anything that says, "I love flowers and hearts, and such." Teehee.).

But this year I made badges.
Yes, you heard me right. Badges. 
And quite frankly if I ever saw these when I was 12, my mom would have had to drag me out screaming of the store if she didn't get them for me. Thankfully, I didn't spend much, considering mostly all the supplies were simply lying around the house. Just sitting there waiting to be useful. 
And now, they are!


Here is one of my favorites:


Warpspeed. Don't you just love the word?
*mutters warpspeed over and over again*

Oh! Guess what Elle taught me to make?

I feel quite proud of myself.

Artist of the day:



Now off I go, running wild, with my dreams, whaleward.
