Patty Cake Elves


Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, baker's man 
Bake me a cake as fast as you can 
Pat it and prick it and mark it with a B 
Put it in the oven for baby and me 

Patty cake, patty cake, baker's man 
Bake me a cake as fast as you can
Roll it up, roll it up and throw it in a pan 
Patty cake, patty cake, baker's man

Happy Thanksgiving!

Did a little cooking today which was super good if I may say so myself! I think we went a little overboard considering there was only two of us tonight... but uhhh that just means lots of leftovers!!!

Pictured Above: Turkey, Stuffing, Gravy, Mashed Potatoes, Macaroni and Cheese, Sweet Potatoes, Cheesy Green Been Casserole, Cranberry Sauce and Rolls

I've been a little busy lately thinking about Christmas Gifts and such but I have a few days off from work to get some drawing and maybe some doll photography in!

Heart Girl Hana Love!

Ok, today I have AMAZING music to share! I am totally into Spotify right now... tons of free music, playlists and your friends can see what you are listening to on Facebook! It's nice to just get a name of a band put it in and make a playlist of all their songs and hit shuffle. I was able to quickly get a lot of song titles to purchase! I like it... you might too. They should give me money for mentioning it...hahah. Anywho the band is The Jezabels and man, let me tell you, last night my volume was cranked high while I finished up the Hana Heart drawing above! Too bad I didn't know about them earlier...

Here are a couple video's of songs that I like! A special "THANKS!" to my roommate for blasting this music in his room! (and of course to the band for making such wonderful music!)

Cutely Spotted Bags, Cookies and Halloween fun!

What does it mean when you design handbags for a living and then go home and design handbags for fun? I guess that means you just really like handbags! ::sigh::
Mmmm, so I thought I would share this tasty treat! I made some Oatmeal Cookies last night that were super yummy and surprisingly easy! I have never fancied myself a cook... I have even gone as far as to say I HATE cooking... but recently... I FEEL LIKE SUPER BAKING COOK LADY! and I LOVE IT! hahahah who knew...
Last night my husband and I were having a major sweets craving but did not want to leave the house. We had almost NOTHING in the house... just one box of cupcake mix that required eggs... but there were no eggs. Upon seeing the large container of Oatmeal we had in the pantry, I snapped online found a recipe for Simple Oatmeal Cookies and went to town using what we had around: Quick Oatmeal, Sugar (I used Brown Sugar), Raisins, Butter, Flour, and Baking Soda. 20 minutes of bake time and BOOM! DONE! DELICIOUS!

And now moving on to Halloween! Yes... Halloween has come and gone and we already have Christmas decorations set up at my work... AHHHH! But I want to share some Halloween pics anyway! Me and my hubby, Greg, getting ready to go out for a night on the town!
Greg's scary pumpkin!
Me and my BEAUTIFUL roomate Ashe! Isn't he pretty! We were Gothic Vampire Lolita's! My husband was our food. hahahah
My tiny pumpkin!
My roomate after pumpkin carving... Scary! I hope everyone had major fun this Halloween! We sure did!

Hanu and his Death Bow

^^ I've been watching a lot of Soul Eater recently... which inspired this lovely Eagle Skull Bow Boy into creation!!! My favorite character is Crona! He is just too cute but oh so tortured... a little like Hanu

I am back! With fun things to share...

Finally getting all caught up! I took sooo many pictures on my trip! Visited San Diego, Portland, and Seattle and it was AMAZING!!! Ugh... cant wait to go there again!

San Diego/Del Mar was great! Went to the Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve, San Diego Zoo, and Old Town!

In Portland we went to the Japanese Gardens, Mothers (the place to be for breakfast!), Van's Warped Tour, the Cullen's House (Twilight Destination), Multnomah Falls, Silver Falls State Park, and a bunch of other scenic places! It was glorious!
Seattle was a day trip! We thought we might as well go and see what its all about! We went up in the Space Needle and went to the Flying Fish Market. Saw a lot of cool shops and architecture and then went back to Portland.

The Twilight stuff was triggered on accident! On our way to Seattle, Washington there was this large sign on the side of a building that said Kalama, a Twilight location. So of course... I HAD to check it out!!! So that's how we came across the Kalama High School and parking lot! That prompted us to see what else we were missing! So when we got back to Portland we visited the Cullen's House and we had already gone to a couple of the scenic areas where bits of the film were shot without knowing! Multnomah Falls and Silver Falls State Park (See pictures below!)

Yay!

Oh and FYI... I know Koalas, and sometimes Pandas, are not really considered bears... but they just sound cuter that way!

It's that time! YAY!

Whelp, I am off to go get refreshed and rejuvenated! Going to kick back with some fam and possibly a friend of mine that will be in San Diego, California, then heading up to Portland, Oregon to take in the scenes!

See you in 2 weeks! If I can I may post some photos along the way... but not sure how that will go with my phone...

Tuesday, August 2, 2011

Instagram! Yay!

I finally joined in to the fun! Downloaded the Instagram App on my iPhone and now I am ready to go phone photo crazy just in time for my upcoming 2 week trip to San Diego, California and Portland, Oregon! Finally some vacation!

Geometric Flower Love


^^

Saw the new Harry Potter on Friday!!! And I must say... it was indeed AWESOME! I am obsessed right now! It is very strange how this has happened... I mean, I have always enjoyed the Harry Potter movies and have seen all of them in theatre... but I have never been obsessed! Right now... I NEED IT! I just finished enough work to let me watch another!

Friday Watched:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

Saturday Watched:
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Sunday Watched:
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
(About to watch) Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

I very much so enjoyed the characters of Rupert Grint and Alan Rickman!
