crafternoons!

this weekend was my niece's birthday party. we had an "ice cream social."

i crafted a few popsicles and giant cones out of scrapbooking paper for decorations...and must say, i was quite pleased with the outcome!


questions


1. what do you think is sold at the going out of business store?

2. why would you bother spending money for that massive sign?

goodbye, swatch


pour some out for nicolas hayek, founder of swatch watch who died this week.

yes, i still wear one. and probably only will.

overheard


"wow, that is a big ass fish. lots of omega in that."

this little gnome...


is heading south for a 1st birthday party. have a great weekend!

walk this way


this arrow (formed from a small drip from an air conditioner) made me smile on my walk to the subway this morning.

new & old


i took this pic of my new duvet to show my mother. when i took a closer look, i realized that in the lower left corner you could still see my 13" TV+VHS combo. yes, i still have it...BUSTED!

time warp

i never know what time it is. case in point, the following times were all recorded at the same moment yesterday:

9:50 / cell phone
9:51 / computer
9:52 / blackberry
9:53 / desk phone

i don't really need kids mats, but i do like the idea of being able to "do something that seems relaxing."

excellent question


spotted the above in a concert venue's FAQs...i didn't even ever think to try to wrangle a press pass! "hi there. i'm blogger-in-chief of - ahem - twofishandaflame..."

who approved this? (sleepytime edition)


this mattress retails for $49,500. no...that's not a typo. who approved this?

ps - incidentally, it is made with gold.
