Things I’ve Made Lately…

I’ve been so fortunate to be very in-touch with my crafty side recently.

In August, I took a Wilton cake decorating class.

we made cookies first…

then we did a cake!

Then we did cupcakes, but I never got pictures of those…  For our last project we got to decorate a cake however we wanted to. Since I has been taking all my goodies to work, I decided to make an Artistic Tile cake!

 

 

I also made a laptop cover for my new computer. Apparently bags/sleeves are impossible to find for 17” laptops, so I had to make my own. I’m very happy with the finished product AND it was fun to make – I want to make more!  … Anyone need a laptop sleeve?? I can make them for any size laptop…

 

When I came home today, I found myself face-to-face with some furry friends in my backyard…

Another one of those nature-y moments in good ol’ New England!

Blueberry Picking

Wednesday I got to go blueberry picking with some people from church. I LOVE doing quintessential new england-y things!

 

Some pictures…

It was Sasha’s first blueberry picking experience.

and she loved it!

YUM!

continuity.

in this post, there is none.

Over the past couple months I’ve taken pictures that I keep meaning to post, but never get around to. So, this one post will contain all of them, and I warn you:  they are varied in subject matter and meaning.

 
yes, that is a dead squirrel on someone’s windshield. sick.

A genuine AR wall cloud. Probably one of the most incredible things I have seen in awhile.

Graduation day with my suite! I was so blessed to have them this year! lovelovelove.

Hot Rize with my loves. Yes, we always eat at exactly the same pace, and no, there is nothing strange about these photos.

 
I had a wedding planning day with my lovely engaged friend. We did lots of secret wedding things and it was wonderful.

We found a bird’s nest outside. Awesome!

 
I grew this basil plant from a seed.

 
and this pepper plant too!

I bought my very first pair of TOMS!
best shoes ever.

 
Aaand, I made an apron. For the cake decorating classes I plan to take in August. I decided to post the b&w picture because my lighting was bad and it made the colors look terrible. I also made a fabric necklace, but I have no pictures of it.

Finalllyyyyyyyy

I’M GOING TO BE AN AUNT!!!!!
:-)
(I don’t have a picture for this yet… but soon I hope to be posting a multitude of pictures of all the things I am making for the baby. (i.e. booties and stuffed animals and burp cloths and toys galore.)

Aaahhhh I am so excited!!

Update on my life…

Oooh, the joys of graduation!

#1 – income

#2 – no more homework… EVER

#3 – freedom

 

Right now I am working for Artistic Tile and rediscovering my hobbies that I have missed for a long, long time. Hobbies like reading, sewing, and doing art for FUN.

Plans for the future:
Find a “real” job… maybe
Have fun
Go on dates
Visit friends
ENJOY life

:)

I like this graduation thing.
