The "highlight" of the day.

I wore this. I brought out the ole' galaxy skirt and paired it with this amazingly bright, SUPER soft sweater. To make this little cableknit/ angora like number even more a hit...IT HAS A BOW.

Also I bought it from H&M kids...size 10-12yrs. And people don't believe me when I say I stopped growing in grade 6.  And yes my feet are even 5.5. Destined to be Pre-Teen forever.

Hello My Name is Busy Bee

OH. MY. LAN.

Ok this post will be quick, yet quite newsworthy. I have been up to my eyeballs/occipital lobe in work. It's that cheerful, wonderful time of year that I love but never ceases to be quiet.

I have been basically living off of boiled eggs, spelt cereal & tomatoes because I haven't had time to cook a proper meal in weeks. And trust me, the jumbo shrimp and ground turkey in my freezer I bought over a week ago is screaming at me to be made into a meal.

ok in point form--why am I so busy:

1. Work is busy. 8, 10, even 12 hour shifts. Not complaining as I LOVE my job, but it just makes it slightly difficult to manage everything else in my life. ( hey laundry after 4 weeks! yup that happened)

2. I am opening up my own boutique in T-minus 18 days....like an actual store front that people walk into and say.." oh my lan that is so cute may I purchase this?" Trust me, starting a new business is not about just taking a cute key and putting into the lock and twisting and pushing the nicely framed door and then exclaiming " oh look it's my business all set up and ready for me!" --More on this later as I will be going into MUCH more detail about my new life endeavor. A post focused JUST on this awaits.

3. It's christmas time...flights to book, people to shop for, eBay listings to get up at 2am for to make sure you win.  ( note: I won)

4. I am apart of the Movies and Makers Holiday arts and craft show THIS saturday ( the 15th) at the Fox Theatre in Toronto...in the beaches. So on top of everything else...I have been preparing like mad for this, stitching my little soul out...getting things printed...and I still don't feel prepared. ( just a lot of little things I usually make a checklist for, but have come to realized my mental checklist was lost weeks ago and I can't seem to find that slip of mental paper anywhere...


I also fly home on the 19th so until then I will not be breathing.

On that note...check out some little tidbits of things I will be selling this weekend!

Don't Rain on my Parade

After three days of trying to figure it out, Mildred finally understood how to use an umbrella. Her fears of someone raining on her parade were finally put to rest.

Oh Penny Poo.

Just a light post of how much I adore my cat! It was almost a year ago that THIS happened. So I began to do things such as THIS. 

But she has grown into such a gorgeous little girl. Long ago are the days when she resembled a hairy, yet loveable rat.
