Wine in These... Yes Please.



We love these Italian Wine glasses and would feel fantastical drinking from them anytime.
I still can't figure out the different types of glasses you should use to drink with each kind of wine. So, these would be the perfect amount of festive and we would use them for everything!

The Length of My Heart


I am loving this measuring tape heart!

Handmade with love by Victoria Mason:

"Some of my favourite outfits were the ones my mum made for me. The final stage was checking floor-to-hem with her tape measure. It had black centimetres on one side and red inches on the other but she only ever measured in inches."


Somewhere Over the Rainbow...Cake

Megan promised that she would attempt to create a rainbow cake for us which we loved from http://omnomicon.blogspot.com. (you can visit this link for the full directions)...



The cake is super festive and really fun to make. Each color was mixed with icing dye instead of regular food coloring.



As you scroll through this awesome display of bakery... you may say to yourself... is that cake overflowing and spilling into the oven?




Why, Yes... Yes it is... but that's what happens to true hardcore bakers... there is always a mess to clean up!



What started out as a two tier cake became this masterpiece. Megan used confetti icing for extra color and splendorous yumminess. The report came back that it was delicious and that using 7-up instead of eggs and oil was awesome!

So, we say to all you who have those winter blues... cheer up your life this weekend and make this... I mean who wouldn't smile stuffing this in their mouths?

I Want to be a Yarnbomber!


via (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/)

Okay, so I want to be a yarnbomber! I have tons of oodles of unused knitting projects. In fact I don't think I have ever finished a knitting project to date. But see that bus right there is a gigantic knitting project... So, I guess I'll never be a bomber, plus I would probably get arrested.

This is Pretty Interesting...
