Late Nite Trims

My husband always asks me to cut his hair right before I want to get in bed, and 
70% of the time I do it every time. lol He deserves it though <3

It's pretty cold outside and if this cute little dog of mine didn't need to be let out, I'd gladly stay in bed.

New Nook

Pulled together this reading nook.  Just repurposed a beat-up cozy, reclining 
chair with some vintage fabric and added a lamp so I can read into the night.

DAY 018/365


There's a Cocktail Conference in town this weekend, and so there's a bunch of beer/alcohol tastings go. I was asked to represent a local brewery and pass out some samples of their beer, for which I'd be paid. It was an offer I couldn't refuse. The brewer decided he wanted to pass our their SOUR beer, apparently sour beer among craft beers is a tricky process to master. Anyways...I felt as if I was on candid camera because everyone that tasted it hated it, just a few wanted more. It became entertaining for me to call people over and try out wonderful beer. Everyone compared it to pickle juice. Once the sour beer ran out, we poured a stout and that wasn't as fun. haha. Great experience though.

Such a treat, I whipped this all together in no time and it tasted perfect.

 Another Hecho-a-Mari canvas tote, with Vonnegut inspired art.
This is another bag I plan to gift. She has this exact tattoo so I 
hope she loves it, plus I think red is her favorite color. Hi ho.

Hecho-a-Mari canvas tote with Kurt Vonnegut inspired art.
The middle one is how the colors appear on the book, and with the 
bookended faces I had fun playing with different color combos. 
This is a hand-painted gift for a friend of mine, I hope she loves it!

Feliz Año Nuevo!

Ringing in another year on my rooftop.  First time in seven years one of my neighbors went blazing bullets in the air, we heard six shots with the sound of the gun cocking back between each shot. Crazy.
