Week of Bollywood

Ok, so, I created a monster. I was at my parent's house all last week playing nurse for my mom who just had surgery. Well, what did she want to do? Watch Bollywood movies. Like hell I was going to argue with that. So, Tuesday through Friday we watched AT... Read more →

Cutting myself off + BW Reviews

omg, it is bleeding hot in here. 9:30 at night, no lights on, A/C on ALL day and it's over 80F!!! I HATE Texas. Ah, I caved and bought Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. It was only $10. I'm cutting myself off now though, I've bought 9 bollywood movies in the... Read more →

Sewing Project: Hawaiian empire

I thought I needed a reminder about why I don't buy, or even look at, babydoll/empire waisted clothing. Most of the time, they just make a person look pregnant. I'm no different.

QotD: I'm Not Telling

What question do you hate being asked? It's either 'Do you have a job yet?' from my father. If I hear it one more time my head may explode. Or, after someone finds out that I just graduated with a PoliSci degree, 'So, what do you want to do?' Those... Read more →

Bollywood Review

I pulled a muscle in my back today, so I decided to watch a movie since I couldn't move. Veer-Zaara Veer-Zaara I've watched a couple movies since my last post, but haven't really been floored enough to post about them. This movie, however, was fantastic. It's been sitting there for... Read more →

Long Skirt

Nothing terribly exciting. I finished this about a week ago. I haven't got around to hemming it....and I may not. That fabric is a pain to hem. I may just zigzag a bit around the bottom....Maybe make it a teeny bit shorter also... But, other than that, I'm happy with... Read more →
