 Next Bead Shoppe update: TBD
  
  
August 19, 2008
You know what time it is??
It's POTSTICKER TIME!
God, I love potstickers (aka dumplings). I don't even care that they are a wee bit
fussy to make. (Although this batch wasn't too bad - 40 min. from
mixing the meat to pleating for 43 of them. Not TOO bad, right? I had
the Sirius radio going w/Howard so I didn't get too bored standing
there. The wrappers were bought pre-made OBVIOUSLY. I made my own wrappers once. ONCE. *ahem*) These are pork ground turkey ones. Pork would have been better but I didn't have any in the freezer. So turkey it is.
These
are all off cooling their heels in the freezer now. NOM NOM NOM for
dinner. (For some of them - the rest will stay in the freezer for next
time. Snacking time. Breakfast time. I just plain ole feel like it
time, etc.)

New beadies are up!
Whew! Took forever today, it did. I think at one point I wanted to take a hammer to every single one of them out of frustration with my camera/pictures. We worked through it and no beads were harmed in the making of this update. :)
Just a little HORMONAL today, I guess! lolol Or a little tired. The Olympics are KILLING me! Staying up late to catch the primetime stuff and then I'm up early so I can watch the equestrian stuff live online. (WTF is up with none of the equestrian stuff being on tv aside from a few 'highlights'??? PFFFFFfftttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Today was a nail biter as we tied with Canada in team jumping for the gold and they had to have a jump off. A jump off! Is that like a Zoolander dance off??? lololol Oooooo, it was exciting though! And not just because we ended up taking the gold. :) Equestrian is one of my favs. When the Fair starts in a couple week I will be at the horse arenas watching lots and lots and lots of horsie type stuff, oh yes. :)
Who else is bummed over the Half-Blood Prince movie being delayed by almost a FREAKING YEAR? A freaking year! Argh. Stupid WB. *kicks*

Is this month flying by or what? I can't believe we're almost halfway through it.
Anyhoo. New beadies will be up next Monday. This week hasn't been so hot so I'm behind in doing new stuff.
I finished up all the orders over the weekend and took Monday 'off' but it wasn't much of a day off because Maggie has been sick. She started throwing up her medicine every time we gave it to her and stopped eating/drinking over the weekend. I had a hunch she wasn't sick-sick, just psyching herself out to think she was sick-sick. And/or was getting stressed at having to take funky tasting meds twice a day. Cats can be little drama queens like that, I've found. She seems to be feeling better today but the last few days have been a maelstrom of scrubbing carpets clean, mopping floors, giving butt baths (NOT MY BUTT!) in the sink and accumulating a growing pile of dirty towels. And even after all that I still feel like everything that isn't nailed down needs to be steam cleaned with the rug machine or doused with bleach. OH SO GLAMOROUS stuff. *snort*

Working on those orders! Y'all are keeping me busy. I hope to have this set of Halloweenies done by Saturday so then I can get started on even MORE new Halloweenies. :)
Finished my Fair sockstoo! (Or Fair Socks Pair #1. Because I signed up for two entries so I have to whip up another fabulous_amazing_terrific pair before the end of the month. Wish me luck! lolol)
The yarn has real strands of sterling silver woven in with the yarn, makes them very glittery and shiny. *pets* Doesn't show up all that well on camera though. :(
