A New Year

 So I stopped being lazy and uploaded pictures from my camera....

Here are my new favourite snacks to make! Chocolate covered cherry mice! They are super tasty and ADORABLE! I brought them to Tim's family's Christmas party and everyone loved them. I wish I'd thought of the idea myself, but of course I found the recipe online. They have pumpkin seeds for ears (I substituted those for almond slices because I don't enjoy nuts), Hershey's Kisses for heads, chocolate coated maraschino cherry bodies and frosting faces! I plan on making them for lots of major events (though they are a pain to transport, because they slide together and then their little faces get messed up). I also want to make white ones too.

I got a cork board from Anne for Christmas (which is actually the only thing I really asked for this year) and I am super excited. I pin all my design and writing ideas/inspirations on it, and it freed up some space on my magnetic board.

 This is Artemis....being cute. ^_^ She is getting bigger!

 The lovely wall clock that Mama made for us. It brightens up our drab kitchen! And it's blue, my favourite!

I bought a bookcase from work (normally $140 down to $25 thanks to my store going out of business and the display model discount), so we rearranged our living room a little bit to accommodate it. The two bookcases are now side by side, and we moved the small one over to our half wall. It's opened up the living room and given us more space. Also, I FINALLY bought frames for my Mucha posters, so they are hanging up too. Yay artwork! 

Here are some goofy pictures from New Years. It was a small group of us, but we had a BLAST! (No, sadly I didn't edit these myself. My four years of college taught me very little about Photoshop. I used a Google Chrome app Pixlrmaticsomethingorother to fiddle with these. It's the same effects as some ipad app).
