Today

Today...
I feel HUGE
is a good day (no more jet lag)
is filled with cuddling with Mister Z.
the weather is perfect
is a slow/relaxing da
y
is going to be the 1st day of my craft projects (yes yes finally I had to put it on my blog to hol
d me accountable for it.)



So back to when I said "I feel huge." I really do feel huge. When I look down, I can't see most of my legs and before I know it I'm not going to be able to see my feet! Yikes! It's a good kind of yikes though. I don't have a lot of 'huge' complaints when it comes to this pregnancy which I'm grateful for. *knock on wood*

That being said... I still haven't done anything creative lately. That is why I'm letting y'all know that I'm going to start TODAY! Even if it's 5 mins. of creativity. I know my readers will definitely hold me accountable.
(note to self: maybe this is a bad idea)

What I did do today...
I cooked!
I made Tom Ka Gai
(Thai soup; creamy coconut base broth)
I feel like the coolest/awesome/amazing wife today because dinner was ready before husband got home. Go me!


Please forgive me for not giving out the recipe. There's no secret to this amazing soup. It's just that I don't measure anything when I cook. My disclaimer has always been "If you like it this time enjoy it cuz next time it won't be the same."


So what did you do TODAY? I hope you had a great day!

Aaahhh Reality!

Some of you may wonder why I've been neglecting my blog yet again!
We took a family vacation to Thailand and now we are officially back to reality!
Sad sad day ...


Good bye Thailand! The land of smiles! We missed you already. Mister Z mentioned you already several times since we got back!

(We got a little bit of color... notice even white folks aren't that white any more!)

I will be posting something soon I promise before this month is over at least. This jet lag thing isn't fun but this vacation was worth every jet lagging moment!

Love is in the air...

Teresa just informed me that I haven't posted anything for a month! Yikes! My blog needs some lovin'
(I am busy growing a person...)



Valentine's day is just around the corner and here are some inspirations for my readers.



No. 1 - In Love Mini/Card; 6"x9" cardstock & some scrap pattern paper


(This heart was made from a plastic box that my Cricut cartridge came in. I used Tim Holtz's embossing folder, rubbed some black & gold acrylic paint and red stickles, add black & white enamel for more texture.)

No. 2 - "U R My #1 Fan" tag

If the love of your life likes to read this would make a perfect surprise to sneak in his book. Make sure to add some hand written notes to the back of the tag!

No. 3 - Nails Art

If I can do it you can! Make sure to take your time ... you are not winning anything here for being speedy!

Like I said I haven't really done much as far as crafting goes much less anything else.



Oh and look what's still on my desk!!!!
I have so much to catch up with. I haven't even printed out any Christmas pictures for the mini yet. I might have to save it for next year. I'm really not in a Christmas mood right now even though I love Christmas!
