Bit of Ivory

Valentine’s Day for those of you out there with a significant other, and Single Awareness Day for those without. I, unfortunately but not surprisingly, fall in the latter category. Oh well. I’m not bitter about it this year, unlike past years. Valentine’s Day is expensive. Besides, I have all the flowers I want (even if […]

Corsages and boutonnieres were great. We made a rose boutonniere, a carnation boutonniere, a daisy mum boutonniere, and a 3-rose corsage. All mine are white so I can actually use them at the dance.

Because of the eucalyptus oil that I can’t get off of them. Yes, it was another floral design lab today. My gift basket is lovely. Pics coming up. For the flowers in the vase, I wanted to do Ravenclaw blue, but unfortunately that idea didn’t pan out. Everything that was in the blue-spectrum looked really […]

So yesterday I mentioned my Penelope Clearwater Barbie doll to some co-workers, and for some odd reason we started to talk about ’80s toys. I think it was because we’re trying to scope out the perfect Ken doll to be Draco Malfoy. Anyway, I was suddenly reminded of a whole bunch of ’80s toys I […]

Pics will come later, but I have to blog now. My roommate just gave me and my sisters our Christmas presents. Now that I see what they are, I know why it took so long. Back at the beginning of January, Jen came in and said “your Christmas presents aren’t done yet, but here’s a […]
