A place for posting random stuff about me, my website and creations, cooking, trips, make-up, beauty and possibly a bit of fashion, projects I participate in, various finds and any other randomness I come up with :)
Don't forget that Spiceycreations.com does custom orders. The new collection of pretties is out for spring/summer, but remember I'm happy to do them in the color of your choice.
We've been experiencing unseasonably warm weather. Today the April showers seem to be back with a vengeance. Although, I did manage to get a good walk in between showers. :) Oh, well, it's back to jacket-wearing and to wishing for dry days in the park like this:
Some say baking = love. Well, not sure how much of that is true, but I certainly enjoy baking for loved ones. Here's some things I've been baking lately.
Chocolate chip cookies
M&M cookies
Pear and almond cake which looks a bit like a giant cookie from this angle. :)
I'm also cooking up new items at Spicey Creations so stay tuned for an update. :)
I am currently working on the final touches of a Lil Bit of Spice zine. It will be completely finished soon! Lots of goodies and lots of fun. I'll post as soon as it's done. If you are interested in reserving a copy, please email me at sp1cey (AT) yahoo . com and let me know if you would like to purchase or trade. If you want to trade, please send a description of your zine or a link to more information. Happy Friday! :)
The sale at Spicey Creations has been extended til November 1st. Save up to 60% off off select items. More sale items have been added and some new items as well with more on the way!
I wish I could say that this was the result of my craving pizza and whipping this up as a result. However, it's really more the result of leftovers plus freezer clean-out.
The photos aren't as good as I'd hoped so you'll have to trust me that this was really, really yummy!
Wear it on your zipper for example on your camera case or backpack
Sorry for the bad lighting and blur. :/
I plan to get the charming turtles in the mail tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest. Hopefully they will make the deadline. Otherwise they'll be for November's Sampler.
Here's a necklace I made for a swap I did on Craftster.org. The theme was One Tiny Thing. We only sent 1 item which was really difficult for me as I tend to send more than a swap requires.
Photo of partner wearing the necklace. It looks great on her and she said it's just her style. :D
Okay I feel that I need a pair of shoes like this if for no other reason than their being ridiculously cute. :> Choosing a color is the only thing holding me up...
If you're ever in Paris, you must check out the green spaces. Our favorite is Jardin du Luxembourg. It definitely has sentimental value for us, but that is not the only thing that keeps us going back. Even when it's filled with people, we always seem to find a quiet spot. Well, maybe not quiet, per sé, but calm enough to where we can mentally block out the noise. ;)
Here are a couple photos that, of course, won't do it justice as it only shows a very small part of the gardens.
