Martha who?

I've always felt pretty indifferent about Martha Stewart. I find cute stuff on her website, but I've never seen an episode of her show. I'm not sure I would find her entertaining. I like my TV hosts to be more charming. Kind of like, I don't know......ME! I think I should get Martha's job. She's a total dud! See there, I'm no longer indifferent.

I had a fun baby shower to attend last night for one very special boy. First up, I ironed on some cute things to a onesie. No real talent required here, but still cute.




Then, I made a fitted crib sheet. They are super quick to sew up and the fabric is usually cheaper than buying them. PLUS....pretty much the only thing you can find in boys' crib sheets is teddy bears or footballs. These are way more fun! It's flannel and really soft and cozy.


When I bought the onesies for the iron ons they came in a pack of 5. So, I had 3 left that I had to find something to do with. Thus...a lovely onesie flower arrangement.


Finally, my absolute favorite. Something I know for sure that Martha could never make!! The awesomest little crocheted shoes ever! I have no idea how "user friendly" they are. For all I know, they could never possibly fit a real human. But, damn, they are cute!!



Finally, today I got a wild hair about cupcakes. Not just any cupcakes but some cupcakes I saw on the Bakerella website a few days ago. They looked so fantastic I could not get them off my mind. I gave them a shot today.


They turned out okay. They look pretty good...though not as good as the original. I have to say though, I was quite disappointed with the taste. Nothing really to get excited about.

There ya go...there's my weekend. Suck it Martha!

Yeah, I got a car for my 16th birthday too...

I'm a bit spoiled when it comes to birthdays. Generally speaking, if I ask for something reasonable, I will get it. This year I really wanted a Kindle.
So after a fabulous day of many birthday wishes, off key singing, Chuy's and cookies, I opened my present. A Kindle indeed!

However, being that I am me, I was unable to sit down and read this evening. My Kindle was naked and this had to be fixed.

Tomorrow I read....and read....and read.



Thank you to everyone who made my birthday so special!

I'm not sure what her wish was, but mine was for a million more days like today.
