snowy

i keep forgetting to upload my photos onto my computer before i leave to get internet (since i don't have it at my house)! but, luckily a recent Poor Lost Bread convert has taken a photo of her pink bulb ornament in her pink holiday tree! (thank you Sandy!)

nothing like a pinky photo to help me forget about my $30 parking ticket and the dread of oncoming "snow showers."

this past weekend there was SO MUCH SNOW. luckily one of adam's two weight-lifting room mates was nice enough to help me rescue my car. and adam helped too! my keds became swamps though, and now they're crispy from all the salt...

but i did order some boots yesterday and they should be getting here tomorrow! yay! i'm having everything i order online these days shipped to adam's house since i suspect somebody STOLE my yellow reebok's, of which i have still not received a full refund, but i talked to a reebok rep last night and he said it takes up to 30 days. boo hoo.

speaking of 30 days. 29/30 days until i fly away for France!

and... less than that to make presents for everyone i love! yiiiikes! jo ann's here i come, oh, and i have to get my oil changed, bah!

but no, i have lots of ideas for presents, although most people i'm making them for are going to be snooping around here so i'll be posting them and how-to's AFTER the 25th, but more sweetie photos to come, including my recent project at kinkos involving vintagey stationary and a color-copier!

brrrr

Since updating the shop I've been busy printing a lot of new faces and piecing together patterns and designs that I've been wanting to for awhile now. Also I shipped a large box of croissants to Shanalogic and I'm currently in the process of getting together a box of goods for White Rabbit in Iowa City.

In the past few days I've made a set of pigs in a blanket and, a very handsome carrot.

Time's running out and I only have about a month until I leave the country, but I'm excited for when I get back. I have big plans to get a business license and learn more about the business world, and also perhaps invest in a serious website. poorlostbread.com? Hopefully someday!

I recently started compiling a wish list for the holidays, which I haven't in a long while since I always feel uncomfortable telling people what to get me...

If only it was realistic for me to wish for a baby ant eater :


Also good :

real quick!

I've been up all night loading up my etsy store and flickr site... So check those out if you're looking for some REAL updates!



Day 1 of the High Noon Craftacular.



Day 2 of the High Noon Craftacular.



My personal haul from the Craftacular.



AND still enjoying leftovers.

Please forgive my tiny entry, I'll go into more depth about how the Craftacular went (besides AMAZING) and other exciting upcoming events soon!

ça va!

I bought these little Cram Cream cuppies at The Glitter Workshop this earlier today when I dropped off some little cards and mini candy canes to go into the goody bags for the lucky first 50 people who come to the High Noon Craftacular this weekend!

I'm officially finished with school stuff for this week, although I have a take home test, and a few assignments (including recording myself reading an excerpt Le Petit Prince by next Monday... + 150 pages of le Passé Simple, but I don't have to worry about that NOW! Because it's almost Craftacular time! I have a ZILLION things to stuff, many photos in the coming days should be expected.

Also, for anyone interested in buying stuff from my etsy store, you've probably noticed it's empty....

I'm going to refill it as much as I can sometime early next week. Hopefully Monday, but Wednesday at the latest!

Yum, stuffing. Oui, ça va!
