so much for a t-rex tea party... 02/27/2010
sigh... * * * * * * * * * “I don’t want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic!" My favorite Annie Leibovitz shoot/Vogue spread ever (rest are here). Super excited for Tim Burton's film next week since i'm pretty obsessed with anything Alice in Wonderland. i'm Moulting, Moulting!! Ohhh, what a world! 02/27/2010
Marcel Bonaparte Pelle I i've been on a French macaron kick lately. i used to not like them, then i had some really delicious ones and i realized it was bad macarons that i didn't like, the good ones i like just fine. These that i had today were bof/meh (as should already have been apparent by the bowl of latte they served.) i haven't been satisfied with any i've had in SF. i think they are too delicate of creatures to be made by heavy American hands. ![]() My flower preferences have also recently changed. new bouquet of luminous purple Irises and a bunch of marvelous little white flowers that come together to make a Hydrangea. ![]() i used to always get lilies i think out of Habit (that sneaky Tyrant), but i've been getting so annoyed of (for lack of more genteel language) their sluttiness (yes, i just called a flower slutty). Lilies make their presence in a room immediately known, bright petals spread wide open exposing their pollen, and nearly assaulting the nose with their strong perfume. Unlike the more demure Hydrangea and Iris that compel one to linger near them, lean in closely to enjoy their innocently alluring scent. (lilies beside a lambchop i taxidermied this summer) My souls getting restless. itching to get out like this little cicada bis dann... Fighting Gingivitis is a Full-Time Job 02/03/2010
cool new soap dish (it's actually a nut bowl but I think he's better suited in the watery bathroom) and Christmas card I got to sent to Frau Mommy und Herr Ahpa today. (Ahpa means dad in Korean..and X-mas cards are 90% off at Pier 1!). Guten Tag! I wanted to wish you both a very Merry Christmas which I assume you are aware is scheduled to occur the twenty-fifth of December this year... O hostile Fate! 02/01/2010
little chocolate covered cherry mice I made to send my sister along with some CowGirl Creamery cheeses since I found these great goudas I think she'd like. Their names are Mik, Mak, Nik, Nak and Jonathan. The last words we heard squeaked from inside Pelle's jaw: "Yet in spite of the divine nature radiating from me, long-tailed spirit of light that I am, do I not partake of the fate of all mortals?" Jonathan, Mik, Mak, and Nik mournfully bid what remained of Nak (a cherry stem and pit) their most respectful adieus before sending him peacefully down the garbage disposal. adorable, almost-a-dozen cupcakes my sister made and sent last week. This one was my favorite: |
