Craft for April 9th: Rough Sketch

I don’t have a finished craft for Make Something Cool Every Day, but I can show you the progress on my main craft for this month.

I’ve been working on this darn elf for a few weeks now. I originally did it in pencil, but I erased so many times on the paper, [...]

I’m getting back on Etsy!

My poor little Etsy account has been collecting dust for a few months now. It’s about time I cleared some of these yarn doodads outta my house and onto the internets. I only put five up, just because that’s all the time I have for at the moment. There are 5 more [...]

April Challenge

I had been hearing about a neat idea around the internets for a few days now and once Dot Dabbled got involved, I knew I had to try it. Hit the link for all the information. Long story short, it’s called “Make Something Cool Every Day for April.” It can be anything! [...]

Fuzzy Wuzzy Gaming

Thanks everyone for all your kind words last week! The surgery was super tiny so I’m already pretty much better. I’m glad it’s all over with. The pain pills were making me stupid! Have you ever annoyed YOURSELF with the dumb stuff you were saying? Words would just fly out [...]

Gamer Drink: The Moogle!

I promised you a girly drink, so here it is! In two varieties no less. The Frozen Moogle and the Moogle Straight! (For those of you that don’t know, a Moogle is from the Final Fantasy series.)

For this recipe, you’ll need a blender. This makes enough for 2 people. Fill [...]

Green Mana Bag

I was experimenting to see if I could make a toboggan (or beanie, depending on where [...]

Here’s another video of the Professor laughing at the Wii. This time, it’s all the Wii Fit Balance Games that drive him crazy.

Hope your Monday is going well!

Gamer Drink: Zero Suit Samus

Sometimes mixology (that’s a real word, I swear!) can be dangerous, even deadly. We didn’t really expect to live through tasting this latest concoction. Alex and I were both afraid of gin because of its incredible ability to slap us around. And usually neither of us like gin based drinks. [...]

Knitting Practice

I have a lot of knit projects I want to do, but I kinda suck with the two color knits. So I’ve been practicing!

You can see what I mean with sucking with the two color thing. How did one of the eye on the first space invader just disappear and the other kinda [...]

Gamer Drink: The Triforce

Happy Friday! Here’s a Zelda themed drink to start your weekend:

So all you Zelda fans know the Tri-force has three parts. Link (courage), Zelda (wisdom), and Gannon (strength). That was the inspiration for this drink. I chose a dark Rum for Link, since he represents courage, and the nick-name for rum [...]
