Priscilla's Earthly Delights


This caught my Fancy...
I was like, oooh, Faaaahnceey!
Sneauxflakes are unique.
I like Unique.
It's not Vanilla.
It's Neapolitan.

Not only was this piece.....wait for it.....CooL;
so was the packaging.



Recycled.
Always a bonus!


Priscilla says "not to mention but will....
it was wrapped in Pink.
Everything Wonderful in this world is
Pink. "





It was described as French Paste.
I think it's LoVeLy.

Fire ~ Arcade



Happy Birthday to Me!
I LoVe Cakes...
Looking at them,
Making them,
Eating them.
Give me a Homemade Hershey's Cake
and a Star Trek Marathon, 
Be Still my Beating Heart~ it's a thing of Beauty.


What better way to show cakes off than this Vintage Cake Tin.
Instead of a RaBBit and a Hat,
You have a Cake and a Carrier.

I LoVe You, Mary Jane!
This is the CheRRy...

Happy Happy, Joy Joy...
LoVeLy vibes for the 60s Inner Child in Me.

Stephanie Plum Series






An action packed,
hilariously good series.





Stephanie Plum by Evanovich.
I was hoOked from the first boOk.

Evanovich does a grand job of portraying the characters.
They are so believable, you'll think She's writing about your own family~
You really get a feel for their personalities.

There is much laughter hidden in these pages.
I read the whole series and was thrilled to find  out, 
THEY ARE MAKING A MOVIE!

Then I crashed and burned when I found out 
WHO THEY CAST!

yep, sad to say....they went will all the wrong people.

Katherine Heigl ~ Stephanie Plum...........NOT.

Daniel Sunjata ~ Ranger...........NOT NOT, but HELL NOT!

Jason OMara ~ He might be just unfamous enough to pull it off, but he doesn't fit my idea of Morelli.

I truly feel this movie adaption would be way better off with unknowns, 
or somewhat unknowns to play the parts. 
Sunjata is too arrogant for the coolness of Ranger. 
I just can't picture Sunjata running around saying "Babe."   
Ewww.

I like Heigl, I do. Just not for this.  
Nope, uh uh. 
I hate when actresses have to "act" bad ass.
It's like watching a film where the soundtrack is off....

In boOkLand, many fans are voicing their opinion
that it's time Ms. Plum make a choice between
Morelli and Ranger.
That's the biggest downside of this storyline;
enough already, Pick One.

Get thee to the nearest Library, boOstore, or Amazon,
and score you the whole series.
With Spring Break, and Summer just a breath away,
this is my recommended great read.

My "VinTaGe" Art....or work i've done in the past



 This is by far,
my favorite painting.
It's testament to my grief
and my desparation to connect with those
on the other side.

My dad
My grandmother
A friend

I don't have bad feelings
or sad feelings,
just,
wanna talk.


Three tiny figures are aboard,
and the Secret Dream Communicatore
aka: phone,
awaits in the shadows.....

O'Lo?
Anyone there?
Hello?

My FaVoRiTe tOOLs ~ Heat Gun

 My heat gun.
I don't know how I got along with out it.

It helps me out with those pesky resin bubbles
by gently busting them into oblivion...
 Occasionally, they will help to hurry along 
the drying process
of my trusty glues

I also have found a new use for my heat gun,
although I have not had a chance to try it:
Adhering my Herbs and Flowers to
my Magical Herbal candles.

I've on occasion,
used it to dry my hair.

nuff said.
