here comes the Blythe

I finally got a Blythe doll! She's "prima dolly violet" and I call her Magnolia. We have so much in common: she prefers to wear skirts, she won't eat alfalfa sprouts and she loves Coronation Street.

Here she is at her first SnB. She likes to have handmade clothes but doesn't like to make them herself, so I'm making them. Here she is in the mod-a-go-go dress she came with and a scarf I knit:


Here she is at her first Oscars party. The other gal in the picture is Nancy, the Librarian Action Figure. The delicious tempeh and soba noodles with peanut sauce were made by Weibke, I just met her and she's great.

And the TVP tacos were made by Debbie. My lazy contribution was take out from Bo De Duyen.

Linden MacIntyre is a good sport, check out this Rick Mercer Report clip!

Did you see what happened to The Revue?

happy valentines day

I made chocolate peanut butter cups from Brenda's recipe:

"this is a library"

Oh the odd questions a librarian gets. Funny, but I still don't want to buy a car. How many stereotypes can you see?

baby, it's still cold outside

Brrrrrr! Holy moly, it's cold. I took off my mittens long enough to take a picture of this tree with big hearts in it. I don't know what it's for, but I dig it.




It's February so I'm back to listening to mixed gender music, and one of my favourite songs happens to have a wintery video!
