Parfait!

National Parfait Day

Here's what Penny came up with.  According to Cute Calendar:

National Parfait Day is celebrated on November 25, 2015. Parfait is a French word literally meaning "perfect" commonly employed to describe a kind of frozen dessert, beginning in 1894. 

In The United States, parfait refers to either the traditional French-style dessert or to a popular variant, the American parfait, made by layering parfait cream, ice cream, and/or flavored gelatins in a tall, clear glass, and topping the creation with whipped cream, fresh or canned fruit, and/or liqueurs.

In the northern United States and Canada, parfaits may also be made by using yogurt layered with nuts or fresh fruits such as peaches, strawberries, or blueberries. (With material from: Wikipedia) This text has been taken from www.cute-calendar.com

Life's an adventure...you never know what's just around the corner.

Bad Day

Having a Bad Day


Sick in bed with a terrible cold, Brock has decided that this is the definition of "having a bad day".

Brock wants me to tell you that her nose isn't REALLY that big, or that red. I found a fun effect on PicMonkey, called "Cherry Nose", that made it look like that.

Fun and Games

Games and Puzzles


Life is more fun when you take time to play games. (I should know! I play Words with Friends and Candy Crush every day, and I'm super happy!)

They are I Love You it's True, and Raspberry Sorbet.

Go Away!

Bonnie wonders...will this rain ever stop?

Bonnie is a Raspberry Sorbet Blythe doll. She's wearing a hat and sweater set I made for her from brown and pink variegated yarn. Her scarf was a recent experiment. I like it, but I will tweak it a bit next time...maybe a bit narrower and a bit shorter.

Not Bad!

She seems to be wondering if she feels more like a "Harriet"or a "Lilly" today!

These hand-embroidered Blythe panties were a recent custom order, and I'm showing them off here because I am especially pleased with how the lettering came out. It can be tricky to get the same slant on all those little letters, and to get them to line up evenly on the bottom. I always re-do some of the stitches as I go along, and sometimes I have to take out and re-do entire letters...these names were no exception.  I am so happy that the extra effort paid off! (I think Harriet and Lilly's "mom" will be, too!)

After writing this post, this customer asked me to add one more to the order. So here's Delphine!

A Little Update

You might remember that I wrote recently ( HERE )  about my experience with a Japanese customer on Etsy. The package reached her very quickly, and I'm so excited that she sent me this picture of her dolls wearing their new outfits. She's happy and so am I!

Circles

Look for Circles Day


Merry's deep thought for the day:

"It's easy to find that which you seek...as long as you know where to look." 

Today she looked for circles, and easily found them in her wardrobe, and on the wall.

Merry is my Prima Dolly Marigold Blythe doll.
