File Under: Things That Have Just Occurred In My Kitchen. Reese’s Puffs Marshmallow Treats!

I am forcing myself to wait until Adrian gets home from work, so’s I can dig in with her.

On Gender Confusion.

Fri, 26 Apr 2013 20:57:19 -0400

So today, at work, I saw a very interesting parenting choice. It upset me to watch it, too. Not greatly, the kid wasn’t being beaten or berated. But it was frustrating to see it, and think that this cycle they had created, would likely continue.

Here is this Dad, and presumably his mother, walking around this fancy-ass grocery store with his two little children in tow. The elder still probably not in school, was trouncing around shouting “I WANNA BE A PRINCESS!!” whilst the father was picking up various items, cooing at his newborn, and chatting with his presumed mother. All the while they would, both adults, correct this little boy “Prince! You mean you want to be a prince!” ”NO! I WANNA BE A PRINCESS!!” ”But you know what a princess is, right? That’s the girl prince! You mean you want to be a boy prince!” ”NO! I WANNA BE A PRINCESS!!” Then they would both sigh in exasperation.

Poor little dude just wants to be a princess, folks, let him be a princess! Don’t fear him or his attitude! I wanted to shout at those adults, and shake them.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Fri, 12 Apr 2013 20:10:40 -0400

So, today is my birthday! On a day we both had off, I celebrated with Adrian in my own fashion: we went to the American Museum of Natural History, up next to Central Park, and then to dinner.

So far I’ve received WAY too much money from my family. As well as some of my books from my library in Richmond. But my favorite thing is the noise-cancelling headphones my mum got me. They work so damn well! This city is extremely noisy, and I often have trouble hearing, so being able to get rid of a lot of the background noise is super helpful!

Also Bender. He talks.

I’m still waiting on one more thing from my mom, another box ‘o’ books via my aunt, and whatever it is that Adrian has for me. But, all in all, and despite the fact that I had to work on what should be a National Holiday, it’s been a great birthday!

I’ve got everything I want from life, right now. I’m as surprised as you are! Things are, shockingly, working out.

I got a new kitty :D Still deciding on a name for him though

We got Adrian’s cat, Lily, a friend. I’m calling him Farnsworth. He is super affectionate, and has a funny chirpy meow! He doesn’t even have a problem with Lily currently despising him and growling at him through the door!

The sight of a dedicated craftsman seemingly contentedly overcoming the vicissitudes of rural poverty to produce such simply styled, yet beautiful objects seemed deeply romantic to Clissett’s admirers, who saw his furniture as a sorely needed antidote to the kitschy decorated factory wares of the era.

Yup.

Only 42 notes? I mean, I know we aren’t Sam Spratt or anything, but we can do better than that!

thedesigndivision:

It’s time to finally give a cup away.

Sometimes we don’t make stuff perfectly (hey, we’re only human!), and while they’re acceptable enough to own, they’re probably not good enough to sell. So we’re giving one away.

This lemon coloured baby has some crazing in the glazing, and the concrete had some, err.. shall we say ‘consistency issues’. It’s all good, it’s rustic! And it’s free!

Want this cup? Like this post! Reblog this post! And make sure you’re following us. Yep, just like your favourite teen-fashion blogs, we’re doing a giveaway that is purely designed to make us feel popular.

The more notes you leave us the more likely you are to win - we’ll randomly pick a number in 2 weeks, and the winner will be whoever left the note that corresponds to the randomly chosen number. Hmm… Thats confusing to explain.

Note: we can post this anywhere in Australia for free, but if you happen to win and live internationally, we’ll have to sort something out. It’ll cost ~$20 to ship it to most places, but maybe we can make it worth your while.
