SHOES!

Aren’t these adorable?! Silly, but adorable. I love them. They’re going to be my go-to shoes this Spring and Summer – which, hopefully, gives me ample time to learn to walk in them without wobbling. :) Shouldn’t be too difficult, as they’re wedges, not heels. So cute, though! And the strawberry bling ornaments on the side?! CUUUUUUUUTE! They’re the Oriento Sun So by Irregular Choice. And I think this is the harbinger of a torrid love affair with Irregular Choice and Poetic Licence shoes. Also, I can’t wait to start sewing up cute skirts to wear with them.

Ugh, and the pagoda carved into the heels just kills me! LOVE IT!

DINNERS!

I have been cooking like a mug. Well, for our household, anyway. (Greg pretty much does all the cooking and dishes, since I hate dishes. I’ve been trying to up my game on the dinner-making front, though; chip in a little more.) Here are some dishes I’ve made lately:

Mushroom Stroganoff (for us and Jay and Lara)

Mushrooms Berkeley (twice in two weeks – once for just us, once for us and Jay and Lara)

Asparagus Pie (for us – next time I will make the béchamel sauce more flavorful, less mild; but it was my first time, and delicious enough)

FOTD: The Lumos Plum (1/11/12)

Now that I think about it – isn’t that weird glowing fruit from True Blood called a lumos fruit?

Anyway, I am SUPER BEHIND in editing pictures, making posts, posting videos for the Makeup Heroes, and ESPECIALLY commenting on blogs – as I’m sure y’all have noticed. Mea culpa. Right on getting that fixed. :)

Sowwy :(

I’m feeling better, but I got sucked into the world of Irregular Choice/Poetic Licence shoes today. And might have bought myself a pair to wear in Spring/Summer. Which means I REALLY need to up my style-game. Um, for Spring/Summer. It’s too cold lately to really care about being cute, especially when it’s hiding under a bajillion layers. Boo. I’m real cute at home, though. But…you’ll just have to take my word for it, I guess.

I got packages to pack, shit to knit, and I need to START SEWING LIKE WHOA so I can wear those serious shoes with SERIOUS OUTFITS in a few months. Holy moley, what have I gotten myself into.
