knit wit.



because terrorists are funny. and because crocheted terrorists are even funnier.

and, now that i've just been added to the terror watch list, i think it's safe to say this:

i think mahmoud ahmadinejad is the cutest of all the religious zealots.

happy december to all.

you remember when i promised a gift guide, right?

well, i was really planning to do that until it occurred to me that the 500+ posts that so far make up this sad little blog are, truly, a gift guide in and of themselves.

so, tonight, instead of the gift of a promise kept, i'm here to tell you...

...you're welcome.

i just fell in instalove with this.

this is me opting to shop in tonight rather than braving the stores.

have i accomplished anything? no.

high tea.


sorry about the shitty res on that teacup. i got frustrated and gave up on fixing it. anyway... IF anthro had dinner plates for this setting, i would totally be sold because i'm already in love with what they do have (this teacup setting and dessert plates). any ideas on if or where i could dinner plates?

dress-up.

ok, i just completely skipped the holiday gift-giving and -receiving excitement and went right on to the 'let's play dress up' excitement i'm typically more prone to around the holidays.

i am, for whatever reason, drawn to soft, furry things that i never will actually wear because of that 'oh yeah this animal was brutally killed and skinned for my vanity' moral conflict. [i do my best to block out all the thoughts of the poor animals whose hides adorn my feet and shoulder.]

but i could pull off this pretty stole from banana guilt-free, and i like that.

a little wool never hurt anyone!

ok, i am back!

spent the weekend in cape cod and had the very best time. had a hard time getting out of here thanks to a freak blizzard, an intrastate snow adventure and lots of airport chaos. but i made it and want to be back there right this second.
