The Exorcism of Anneliese Michel

Last night, Rob took me to see The Exorcism of Emily Rose (or did I take him, hmm…) I loved the movie, but I’m a sucker for god vs. satan horror; my favorite movie ever is The Omen. As this movie claims to be based on true events, I put together a little list of links that refer to the […]

Saturday

This morning I went to the MUST SEE event of the year, er….week–South Carolina’s Largest Garage Sale. It’s held in a 4-story parking garage by the Pavilion Amusement Park. I bought one of the most seriously bizarre pictures I’ve ever seen–for a dollar. I should post a picture of this unique find; it is completely perplexing to me, and maybe […]

Hot, Hot, Hot!

I thought I’d share a few of the handmade things I sent to AmandaJ for the August Swap of the Month–Favorite Fruit. AmandaJ’s favorite fruit was the Hot Pepper. I had so much fun concocting stuff for this swap; I love hot peppers too!

Mirza Ghasemi

When I was living in Durham, one of my favorite restaurants was Cafe Parveneh in Chapel Hill. Serving traditional Persian cuisine, one of my favorite dishes was Mirza Ghasemi. i submitted my own tasty version of this veggie treat to the vittles.

Olmsted Stamp

This shouldn’t really count as a craft, but I have a lot of things to post over the next days. I got these Frederick Law Olmsted (the founder of American landscape architecture) stamps and framed them to send to a few friends from grad school.

Yesterday, while driving up to Shallotte, NC to see Redeye (great thriller btw), I was watching the crazy cloud formations only to discover a tiny rainbow. As we drove further North, more of the rainbow became […]

Rob’s Haircut

Well, It has been quite awhile since I’ve posted. My life just keeps on getting busier & busier. My time is totally taken up by non-post-worthy activity. However, this past Friday, an epic event of groundshaking proportions took place. My boyfriend got his haircut. before: AFTER!!!!! I have to admit that I was quite shocked at first; now that my […]

Alligator Adventure

Yesterday, I took an afternoon fieldtrip to Alligator Adventure with my mom & cousin–Kalliemarie. It was hot, hot, hot but we had a lot of fun as we melted. They have 800 alligators that range in size from babies to huge 13′ adults that weigh 500-600 lbs, UTAN the 20′ “King of the Crocs,” and many other reptiles, birds, river […]
