Girl Meets Betsey Bag
| 9 Comments on Girl Meets Betsey Bag
Hairy has said I am officially “bad.”
I am not “bad,” I am human!!! A mere human girl!!!
When I got the email telling me that Betsey Johnson’s bags were 40% off, I had to take a look…. and I fell deeply and hopelessly in love with this amazing ice cream tote bag.
The handles are pink sequins, the giant ice cream on the front is a zipper pocket, there’s a magnetic snap closure, tons of room for my crap. WHAT IS NOT TO LOVE?!??! I MEAN REALLY!?!!??
(please excuse my terrible hair. sometimes it just does whatever it wants to do…)
3 Macaroons and a Creme Puff
| 5 Comments on 3 Macaroons and a Creme Puff
When we were in Paris, we ran into a Pierre Herme shop which is supposed to be famous for its macaroons. They had all kinds of crazy flavors like wasabi or rose!
I got 4, but I decided after all that I don’t really like the taste/texture of macaroons. They are really cute, though, so I started thinking of ideas for macaroon-inspired cowls. And tonight, I thought of a strawberry creme puff cowl I want to make. So I sketched them out to remember. (Yes, I know, I can’t draw. I’m ok with that and I don’t even try.) I probably won’t be able to make any for quite some time as I have so many big projects lined up, but hopefully I can sneak one in! I know exactly how I want to do them so that they seem to have a nice rounded edge.
Anyway, that’s all from me! Back to work! Today I am writing notes on my book contract!! I kind of wish I could also have one of my old colleagues go over it with me, but I don’t want to burden someone who is not my actual agent. My agent already wrote notes, so if she and I go over it, we’ll probably have most of our bases covered. Blah blah blah. Okay, off I go!
“Watch out boy, she’ll chew you up!”
| 10 Comments on “Watch out boy, she’ll chew you up!”I shrug at this entire post. I don’t like to abandon my blog for too long, but I have too much Photoshop homework to do on a time crunch, so I haven’t been crocheting much or taking any pictures or going through vacation stuff.
I kind of don’t remember why on earth I bought this Maneater shirt. I probably thought it was funny at the time, but now I’m like, Hunh?
So here’s a really horrible video for you to enjoy today!
I guess the other moral of the story is: don’t ever take me dancing. I *will* snap my fingers. A lot.

On Saturday, Hairy drove down to the Peninsula with me to pick up some yarn from Los Altos. I had called all around the city and nobody had Plymouth Encore worsted weight in bright yellow!!!! So we went down there and also visited Manda to drop off her prezzies from Europe. I got her three French fashion/lifestyle magazines, a fancy jar of peas (joke, but she really does eat canned peans with mayo!), and fancy dark chocolates.
Afterward, we drove back up to the city to walk the pups and buy foods for dinner. Hairy made a yummy salad and a little bit of pasta. Then we stopped by the Comet Club in the Marina to say hi to Michelle who was promoting Sailor Jerry rum. I have decided I definitely am not a rum and coke girl! I was already feeling tired around midnight, but the Comet Club was still an amusing place. I really want to take Manda. I think she would like it. I am always fascinated by the way people act at clubs, when dudes grind on girls, when everyone acts silly. Good people watching!
Hairy drank three rum & cokes and then Michelle and I visited the photobooth. I never know what to do with myself in one. I think it’s clear that “grumpy face” is a go-to.
