Holy crap!

Has it really been 4 months since I last posted?  Wow... it really does not feel like it has been that long!  I wish I had something exciting to say I was doing but I really can't.  The holidays came and went without too much fanfare although I did throw my first party at my house since moving to GA in 2004.  It was a big deal for me since I am weird about having people in my house but it went well and now I host a near monthly D&D-type game.  Yes, I am a nerd and geek. :) 

New Year's Party

I even threw myself a birthday party in February!  Sadly, I did not take pictures of either party because I have a really hard time remembering to do that.  I did manage to get a picture of my macabre cake I made for my birthday party, though. :)


The cake and frosting were flesh tone and had cherry "bloodclots" in the center :)


Hubby and I managed to go on at least one road trip.  As I've posted before, we often choose an interesting sounding name on the map then find a backroad way of getting there.  This time it was Eclectic, AL.  :)  On the way there, though, we stopped at a park just outside Tallapoosa, AL and I got into a little trouble!

When good road trips go bad - next on FOX!

I ended up being on Grand Jury for 8 weeks after the beginning of the year and used my $25 a day to add to an existing tattoo I have. :) 
 

Action shot of Flaco Martinez of All or Nothing Tattoo in Smyrna, GA working on me - he is super cute so I was happy to have my hand resting on his thigh ;)
  
The patchwork heart and skull were existing.  Flaco added the art supplies around it for me.  I am really happy with it!  He's going to touch up the heart and skull for me after the rest of it heals.


So, yeah... that's my recap of the last 4 months.  I told ya not much was really going on.

I've been in a bit of a creative slump but I can feel that starting to starting to lift.  My 1-year pledge of no new clothes ended march 1st so I got some pants and a few tops which I am going to refashion.  I also have some fabric that is screaming out at me as well as some cute little 4x4 canvases that need to be painted. :)  Hopefully, soon, I will have those to post for you!

  1. Gorgeous tattoo! I was a bit worried that I hadn't seen you around for so long. It's good to have you back!

Got something to say? Then I wanna hear it! But if it's mean or an ad that doesn't fit with my blog theme, it may not stay for long. Just sayin'. :) And sorry about the word verification. I'm just tired of spambots invading my happy place. :P

New Apron

Still alive and still cooking A LOT!  The food blog has really taken off which isn't leaving much room for much else.  I really need to get crafty some time soon. But, I did recently find some time to design myself a brand new apron! Here's a more detailed image of my design: At least I am finding ways to combine my 2 passions! :)

Mmm, mmm, good!

There has really been nothing remarkable going on the past few weeks.  I've made a bunch of yummy food but by the time I am done cooking it, I am so excited to eat it that I forget to take pictures until I am putting away leftovers. :P  This is the only meal that made it and it's probably the most boring visually.  LOL  It was absolutely delicious, though!  I present to you roasted tomato soup and grilled ham & cheese on homemade bread!  I am not a huge fan of soup and never have been.  Tomato soup is one of the few I enjoy because it is creamy and smooth and doesn't look predigested to me.  Now that I have had this, I will never, ever be able to eat canned tomato soup again.  Ever. You can find the recipe for the soup here.   I will also be adding the Pumpkin and Mushroom Lasagna, Shepherd's Pie, and Cherry Bread recipes soon.  Even though the temps are still in the 80's (upper 20's celsius) here in Atlanta, I ...

Sashi Goes On Vacation

I decided I really needed a vacation yesterday so I took a quick trip around the world and got some nice locals to snap pictures of me here and there.  I decided if I was going to go on a trip, I would go in style so I took off in a stretch limo.*  It had a bed covered with kittens for napping between stops, a full stocked bacon bar, and the entire Murder, She Wrote series in the DVD player.  I was set! pic source My first stop was to check out the nightlife in New York City.  Times Square was amazing and I met the nicest man who demanded all my money.  I offered him bacon instead and he was happy enough to take this pic for me. pic source I then skedaddled over to San Francisco to see if the sisters from Charmed were home but they must have been out fighting demons.  I even looked for them at one of their favorite hangouts. pic source From there I bounced down to Brazil and met a wonderful group of kids.  Their teache...
