Home remedies and hurdy gurdies

I think I'm on a hurdy gurdy kick. The band Djinn has one in it and I'm in love with their stuff. What's fun is making a room full of older women belly dance to it all while I'm jamming out dancing to my own beat. I'm sure they'll catch on to the greatness of it all....eventually.

Fartbomb (cat at bottom of page) still has conjuncitivitis. He's not doing well with the stupid gel we have to smoosh in his poor eyes and tries to bite me every 12 hours. So I read up on the great curing powers of ACV. Yes, apple cider vinegar. Now not only does he have goopy eyes, swollen eyes, but now he reeks of vinegar. Awesome.

My cat hates me.

Unicorn Cake

Quite possibly the most stupid and most brilliant thing I've made all week. How did I do it?

1. Buy cake mix, bake the cake and let it cool.

2. Whip up some raspberry buttercream frosting

(1 lb powdered sugar, 1 stick of cabot butter, a little less than 1/4 cup of homemade raspberry jam, some tablespoons of vanilla soy milk)

3. cover it with rainbow sprinkles

4. go get a $5 box of ponies

5. dig a knife in the ponies heads

6. stick candles in the heads of the ponies

7. stick ponies (now UNICORNS) in the cake

8. ta freakin da, unicorn cake

Genious. And stupid.

Wormie Cupcakes

I'm sure everyone on the planet has done these before, but it was my first time last week to do the dirt/worm cupcakes. They turned out super cute! Though I never tried one (trying to eat less sugar and crap) and these were marble out of the box as apposed to my home made organic recipe. And the worms were made of gelatin, and the tops were crushed Oreos, all big no's for me lately...but they will looked cute and the teens ate them up because when you're 16 you don't give a crap about what you eat I guess!

I have no life

Here's why! The Winsome Dress, just like the Darling Dress but longer and with an scalloped hem and more eyelet. It's available in my etsy shop for $200.00 custom sized.

I'm also trying to find some nice eylet with a scalloped hem in othe colors. It's not easy I'm finding out.

Also going back to PLATINUM hair today! With some pink streaks thrown in here and there of course. I get a new SUBARU today as well! OH JOY! For REAL! So I can cart around my dress forms with ease for the next show. SUPER excited!

PPPIIINNNKKK hair of course

What whaaaaat? Yes, it's pink hair. Thanks to my obsession with the color this has come about. It went well with the sunrise shown here from our resort room at Turtle Bay two weeks ago in O'ahu. I miss that sun........

And, new ink!

Thanks to my super darling bff (she'd totally make fun of me for typing that) Stacey Martin of Dovetail Tattoo in Austin TX gave me some new ink last month. http://www.myspace.com/dovetailtattoo They also have a facebook page, just search 'dovetail tattoo' or my darling Miss Martin.

Go to Texas. Head over to Austin. Get some ink from the best in the west!

Victoria's and GaGa goodness

I swear that Lady GaGa herself had a hand in the Victoria's Secret fashion show that I'm watching right now. The opening walk was RIDICULOUSLY awesome, but why do people make fun of my dear Lady's outfits? That gold lightening bolt explosion on the one that was close to last was PURE GAGA.

So, I've been mia lately because I have NO LIFE other than sewing, work, sewing, Oahu....what's that? Oahu? Yes! I'm heading there soon! But for kicks, here's the Halloween madness I was part of.......Marilyn, Lady GaGa and Jem. Oh yes, JEM. And I can't figure out why the photo sucks. omg the green outfit on Fergie right now? Sweetness.
