new news

The weekend has zipped by way too fast. Perhaps I should write to the President and ask if he could make weekends 3 days long. This would allow for a day of getting things you have to get done DONE, a day for socializing and then a day for relaxing with absolutely nothing to do. Alright, who's writing a letter with me?!

Saturday was a day of errands for me, I got my car oil changed (the light was on for two weeks!) and the day was done without me realizing it! I did however, as I had mentioned, received my copy of World Sweet World:

I'm growing my hair out a bit for the wedding in Dec. I've never had hair past my shoulder before! It should be interesting. It does, however, need a bit of trimming because I have really thick hair so I need it layered a bit. (Urgh, another thing I have to do but keep putting off!)
I did, however, get off my bum and got a sign made for my upcoming craft fairs:
It is shiny and rigid and I can't wait to use it!

Sunday morning, we ventured over to Alberta to indulge in a bit of crepe heaven at Tour de Crepes. Mmmm, the fluffy thin crepes filled with most delicious fillings such as* lavender, butter and sugar* * lemon curd and sugar* *Figs and prosciutto*. My belly is rumbling just from the thought of them!
The fig and proscuitto crepe.


I even had time to make a few new necklaces but only listed this one:
The Private, a military inspired necklace with green tartan grosgrain ribbon and brass chains.



Also, news that I have learnt of for a few weeks now and decided to share with you, that I'll be an Aunt this coming Jan!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My darling sister is pregnant, the first for both sides of the family and I can't wait to see her and the baby! Val was such an adorable baby that hers would be too cute to handle!
My sister

She told me that she had her first scan and it was 3 cm and it was dancing. I'm glad my niece/nephew has my dancing gene but here is something for my sister:
Val, this is how big your dancing peanut is right now. The fish charm is 3cm.

Oh YAY!

I think this is my favorite post you've written....and how could it not be with a new adorable magazine to go subscribe to, crepe's to drool over (I have to show them to my hubs, he is a crepe fanatic), one of my most adored munted designs yet--seriously, tartan!---, AND A PREGGO sister:)

Many congratulations on being an Aunt.. the tiny 3 week charm was wonderful. Your little dancing fish niece/nephew will be here soon and you can make them all sorts of wonderful things. Perhaps this shall inspire you to create a new line of munted children's items???? I can only dream....

p.s. your hair will be cuteness in a longer length.
