puppy love


So I am just sitting here waiting for Thanksgiving break to begin....listening to this beautiful music you need to hear. Ahhhh....so lovely. Be sure to listen to "Thanksgiving". It just makes you swooon.
Anywho.... here's a picture of Ty with my new crush the afforementioned Butterscotch the Pony. I freakin love that thing.
I made the best soup last night from Kara's recipe. I will post it soon because it is just so good everyone needs to make it. Squash and apples and curry......mmmm.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

It's Not Over Until It's Over

and it's over!!!! Yes ....I am finally finished with the hell they call the GRE!!!! It's been hanging over my head for at least a year and then I put it off and postponed it and the finally the dreaded day came yesterday. I had studied and studied and studied and when I got there it all looked like some strange alien language but it's over!!! I did average... I do not want to be average...but for something so ridiculous .. average will do.
So I am basking in the wonderfulness of not having something so scary hanging over my head like a giant grey storm cloud....so I am making a list of things that I know can fully enjoy without reservation:

1. Listening over and over to "Oh Valencia" by the Decemberists
2. My favorite shoes...black cherry Danskos clogs
3. Daydreaming and laughing about Butterscotch the pony that I saw at Target.
4. This girls blog that I love and wish I could be her.
5. Getting ready for the superfabulous Craftland that I am taking part in...opening December 1st in Providence. What will I wear to the party???


I'll post pictures of my new trivets and magnets soon.

Under Pressure



OH yeah....it's been awhile...I know I know. I'm terrible. Honestly, there hasn't been a lot to tell you about. I have been a slacker and not done a lot.
But now I am totally stressed. I have to take the dreaded GRE in two weeks and I am completely lost in the math ....lost I tell you! It's like I never took high school math!! Thankfully the wonderful Kara has offered to help me study. I also am preparing to do Craftland, the amazing craft show in Providence which begins in early December. I am trying to make tiles and cupcake plates for that. I also have a small solo show in February to prepare for. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...how does one get all this done?! I have no idea...and basically am just shutting down, eating candy and hiding in bed.
However, here are some pictures from Kathleen and Matt's wedding and me and cute boy's trip to the apple orchard. More to come as work gets done (hopefully) Send your mathy vibes to me!!!!
