Wishing everyone and their loved ones a very merry and blessed Christmas. ♥

In case anyone had wondered at my general online absence over the last 1.5 weeks, let's just say it may have involved some of this:



Plenty of eating of sinful dishes like this:



And possibly not quite enough of this (I blame the cold):

Things have finally wound down some, but it's still going to take me a while to catch up with everything, so please bear with me if I owe you e-mails and such and am slow to reply.

(Also, not a word about photo backlog, please. I'll just, erm, sit here and ignore the ever-increasing mountain of photos I still have yet to wade through.)

I was planning on modding her at some point but I decided to do it sooner than later. I really wanted her to be a 40's pin up as most may know but still be very unique and not like any other Jessica's so I modded the crap out of her to be unique and I really hope she does look unique O_O I worked so hard on her and I am not done yet, I plan on separating her fingers so she can wear gloves.

Mods done: I slightly closed her eyes, sanded her some cheek bones along with her nose, jawline and shortened her chin. My inspirations for her come from several sources, Brows: Lauren Bacall (they may need to be a bit thicker) Cheek bones and mouth: Veronica Lake (LOVE HER) and her over all look (wig and way of dress) Betti Page. I'm pretty happy with how her cheek bones came out XD

Anyways, I hope you like her. I am also working on a doll project unlike anything I have done yet and very excited!

I need the monies as well as downsizing.

Wish me luck!

I wish you could see him in person, he looks soooo cute but my pics do not do him justice, maybe this weekend if the sun comes out I can take full body pics outside! I got his awesome outfit off of eBay but it was meant for sd13 but I really had a vision of Poe wearing it! I'm thinking he dresses up like Santa's little helper at X-Mas and passes out toys for the little needy children that live in his hometown of Grief.

Lulu likes to play dress up and Bowee likes to play with Lulu. Lulu in her new SODA dress :)

Also I am looking to sell Harley, I do love him but I just don't ever do anything with him anymore. I also will be listing my Dreaming Roda on eBay within the next couple of days as I need money. Still thinking about Bailey also along with Loki's head...

Midnight now, at last! And since I really need to be scooting off for Paris very, very soon-ish, I'll just post this now and keep this as short as possible (which seems rather impossible, given my natural tendency towards verbosity, but try I shall):

This month's Daring Cook's challenge was hosted by Simone of Junglefrog Cooking. (Thank you, Simone!) We were offered a recipe choice of either salmon en croute or beef wellington, and I went with the former because a) I adore fish, and b) I really dislike beef. << is a picky eater, why yes she is indeed


Salmon en Croute

( food talk and a few rather sad pictures )


Blog-checking lines: The 2009 Daring Cooks challenge was hosted by Simone of Junglefrog Cooking. Simone chose Salmon en Croute (or alternative recipes for Beef Wellington or Vegetable en Croute) from Good Food Online.
