Marshmallows are a sticky situation....

Anyone that knows me knows I hate marshmallows. They are disgusting and I can't even get them anywhere near my mouth area without wanting to barf. However, it has recently come to light that my gag reflex is OK with homemade marshmallows. Imagine that and the world of marshmallow things that could potentially become available to me! OK so it may just be s'mores but still that's exciting.

Last night I found out that once again, Martha Stewart can bite me, because marshmallows are not as easy to make as they seem. . . . . .or maybe I shouldn't be drinking while making them. Needless to say batch #1 was a total failure! Don't you worry marshmallows, I'll be back to conquer you with a vengence. . . . . . . .as soon as I get a stand mixer.

Strawberry Fields Forever.....

Please observe this photo. Note that I have marked the proximity of the BEST STRAWBERRY STAND IN THE WORLD to my house.

I totally understand if your jealousy and envy are too much to control right now. It is a pretty awesome set up. I'm predicting some fresh strawberry jam and for sure some amazing strawberry cocktails to be made within one week. Straw-tini anyone?

I heart the simple life.....

You have to love your town when this is the worst thing posted on the local police log.....

"A 6-year-old child in the lobby said he was twirling with his eyes closed at a gymnastics class on Adams Street. When he opened his eyes everyone was gone, so he walked to the PD. An officer reunited him with his parent."

True story, I swear!

Damnit Martha......

Seriously? Who has time for this crap? I really want to like you but you are going to need to stop sending me INSANE craft ideas like this, it's making me feel like a subpar human being and crafter.....

Crafting and such.....

Few things from my crafty world today.....

1) Last night I finished the crocheted part of my crazy Japanese pattern bag. It's really inspired me to go out and find more of these patterns b/c it looks so cool. Now all I have to do it line it but it's going to be SICK. Look out friends, I may be mass producing these and gifting them so put in your color preference now!

Get the pattern and so many more here (for free!).

2) I have found the best craft site ever in the history of the world. OK that's a bit dramatic, but I'm all about it right now. http://www.esty.com/ Visit it, love it, buy my crap.

3) And for today's "What-the-fuck-ever-Martha" moment I give you this.......

Yeah, that's a rose made out of tissue paper, like I'm supposed to have time to just whip that shit up in my spare time. Damn you Martha, just when I feel like I'm getting on top of my crafting game you raise the bar. Damn you infernal woman!

HOWEVER, I do feel that my bag is way cooler than this sillly paper flower so there! :)

4) BIG PLANS tonight, Snuggies have been pimped and are ready to take SF by storm! Bring it on Polk Street! I'll report back later with tales of our evening....

Oh the cuteness.....

So much better than having a real nephew. Welcome to the family little Remi.
