Julissa and Ed Dyer's Wedding Bachelorette Gift Random mask my friend asked me to make for party.

Lauren's Wedding

Wedding mahem... here is Amanda's wedding. I did the decor and the flowers.

I began my hunt for a garmet bag long ago.... but then it became a necessity as the annual summer conference approached. Since I couldn't I find one that wasn't below $100 and was incredibly ugly, I came up with a brilliant plan. I could make my own! So... off I ran to the fabric store and for $50 and 4 hours later, this is what I came up with!! (It's my first zipper that I have sewn : ))

Oh yes.... and I have been eating and baking 'till hell won't have it. This is my newest recipe that is SOOOO YUMMY!!! Taco Casserole: In a Pyrex type pan, throw down some green taco sauce. Then line the bottom of this pan with corn tortillas. On top put a full layer of sour cream, cheese, chicken, green taco sauce, and repeat this all over again.... tortillas, sour cream, cheese, chicken, and then salsa. Top it all off with more corn tortillas, cheese, olives if you like them, and green chili sauce. Cook on 350 degree for 45 minutes. This was so easy, I just bought one of those pre-cooked store chickens, and within 10 minutes it was in the over. SO YUMMY- you have to try it!

This is my latest creation.... seen at a show I went to. It was $500 and I just was not willing to pay that much, so I only paid $80 in materials for wall art! For a birthday... hope he likes it!

Here is how I made my cool pot..... Pots with Pizzazz! 7 parts peat moss 7 parts perlite 3 parts vermiculite 7 parts Portland cement 9 part water Supplies..... Molds (inner and outer) WD-40 Duct Tape Wire Brush Heavy file or rasp Cement Dye (optional) Directions: Mix all the dry ingredients together ina wheel barrow. While mixing, add all the water until the mix has the consistency of pancake batter. Add cement dye if alternate color is desired. Cut the inner mold's rim off and cover all bottom hoes in both molds with duct tape. Spray the inside of the big bowl and the outside of the small mold with WD-40. Press the mis into the mold, making sure to press the materials tightly together. Allow to dry for 48 hours. When dry, carefully remove finished pots from plastic containers. Drill drainage holes in bottom of the pot. File or wire brush the pot to a desired texture. Spray with a strong stream of water and install plants!

So.... the number one thing you look forward to as a teacher is... SUMMER! But, now that it has happened.... I have found it to be rather, well, boring. So, I have had to be creative in how to entertain myself (outside of tanning and working out, which I got very bored with both). Here is what I have came up with so far.... enjoy!
