I realized I was almost grey from head to toe and couldn’t resist the fun with the 50 shades reference, but I didn’t actually ever read it so, I’ll probably have to leave it there. Continue reading

Reminders of Home
I had to smile when I saw the new Hana sweater from Redgrave. It made me think of my mother and the wonderful Scandinavian knit sweaters she would knit for me each year. I had one very similar to this one with the Yule pattern. Mine was knit with silvery gray, white and a dusty rose yarn with several rows of geometric patterns from the neckline and down the yoke with a solid silvery gray from the yoke to the bottom. My sweater was full length though I kind of replicated that with the tank top underneath. I loved my sweaters and always admired my mother’s ability to knit such delicate and intricate patterns. Of course, since it took so long to make them, I was never surprised at Christmas.
Indecisive
I couldn’t decide who I was today in SL. What is brilliant is, I don’t have to. New slacks and a sweater from Baiastice and gorgeous new shoes from Miamai. Really. Perfect day.

It Was a Dark and Stormy Night
Searching for land is nearly impossible. Not because there isn’t any. I am old enough to remember when people made fat cash off of land. But now, it’s because, there is so much – how do you wade through it all? Whole continents for sale 512 at a time? It’s mind boggling. Continue reading

So I Had a Birthday
I didn’t mean to not have a party but I didn’t have a party and then it came and went and I was like FUCK IT. No party.
But I do have a dress. A party dress, to be exact. It’s from DCNY and if I WERE to have had a birthday party then this was my dress of choice. Continue reading
Almost Bald And No Edits
I was in a bit of a rush this morning so first of all, I was in a dither. I had the new hair from D!VA which is PRECIOUS at Collabor88 except, for some reason this one just doesn’t suit my face. D!VA makes PRECIOUS hair, and it’s exactly the sort of hair I WANTED so, I dug out a style from a month or two ago. VOILA.
But then I was a lazy blogger and just decided to edit in aviary and waddya know with the clock ticking, Aviary was down. Continue reading
Pistachio Pudding
Through the whole of my childhood, the bottom shelf of my grandmother’s food pantry was stocked with pudding and jello and marshmallows. Predominantly – PISTACHIO PUDDING.
This was because she belonged to 800 women’s clubs, from Eastern Star, the Martha Circle at church, the Women’s Republican Club, yadda yadda on and on. She also once belonged to the Women’s Christian Temperance Union swearing that alcohol would never touch her family’s lips. That one didn’t work out so well. But she needed the pistachio pudding for her signature dish at the many pitch-ins these groups held (called potlucks outside of Indiana). Continue reading
