Felicia Day, or as some of us call her, the Queen of the Geeks, is one of my favorite celebrities (besides Jen Yates, of course). I started watching her when she created The Guild, and have followed her ever since. I love her new YouTube show, The Flog, on her channel Geek & [...]

If you know me in real life, you know how much I adore Jen Yates. She is the creator of CakeWrecks.com and Epbot.com, two of my favorite websites on the entire world wide web. She’s hilarious, creative, sweet, talented, humble, and a huge geek. If you don’t read either of her sites, [...]

I’ve been looking for a nerdy tree topper for years. For a while, I had Godzilla, who was nice, but I felt it was time for a change. I needed a little more Doctor Who in my Christmas.

When I thought of this a few months ago, I thought I was being SOOOO original. [...]

My husband is a pretty silly guy. One of his favorite movies of all time is Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. After he got it on Bluray, he became like a Scott Pilgrim evangelist. Anyone that stepped foot in our house that hadn’t seen the movie, was forced persuaded to watch it. [...]

I love Etsy. Whenever I get bored, I’m usually window shopping there. So much creativity in one place! Also a lot of really crappy stuff, but I’ll leave the commentary on those items to Regretsy (another site I spend a lot of time on when I’m bored). This week while looking [...]

So there’s this kid, right? And he is awesome. Like super awesome. This dude loves robots, so his parents asked for a robot cake. I was more than happy to oblige!

Ignore that stick coming out of the top of his head. It was just for extra stabilization for the [...]

I’ve made a foray into amigurumi recently. I have an idea for a huge project for after I finish working on The Gearheart, but I’ve gotta design some amigurumi for it. It’s a lot harder than it looks! I have made a head (whoopty doo, it’s just a ball) and I’ve been [...]

Have I mentioned that I have some really freakin’ cool new friends since I moved to Huntsville? This is what my newest crafty bud, Misty Granade, finished last night:
Bask in the awesomeness with me! You should also go to her and her husband’s blog. They are hilarious and have great kid stories, [...]

This is the first of three favor tutorials. I’ll have the others up as soon as I can find the pictures…. I think they may be on the laptop which Alex ran off with today.
First off, I got the idea for this from a tutorial I stumbled across at a craft blog called [...]

I finally get to show everyone the groom’s cake I made!!!! It’s been a super secret project so the groom wouldn’t find out, but now that he’s been officially de-bachelored, I can unveil it.

The groom is one of my best friends on the planet and I’ve known him since high school. The Bride [...]
