Cookie Cutters Unite

Last Thursday it was time for my annual Ladies only Cookie cutting and decorating party and this year the ladies ignored the horrible weather and one by one they walked in to our house and filled it with the usual sugar and spice and everything nice. Candles were lit, the spiced wine was heating and Boys II Men interpreted Christmas on the speakers.

This year, more wonderful ladies showed up than ever before, which makes me truly understand how many great new friends I have made this past year. Good times were had, about 3 gallons of wine was consumed and everyone's decorating skills were put to the test.

(yummy spiced wine, scandinavian style - thanks for the gløgg, Lisa!)


(Jenn had spent half the day at work making drawings of the cookies she wanted to cut)

(icing in holiday colors)

(and tasting, of course!)

I bet you wonder how our delicious treats turned out, eh? Well, you can click yourself over to our house and see the wonderful results. I bet you wish you were there, and if you have a vagina and you play nice - you'll probably get an invite to next years event.

Samurai Unite

Lichiban's 'The Secret Lives of Samurais From The Land of Eternal Love' was in full swing at YUME.

Check out some snapshots:
...havent seen Diamond Girl in a minute. Check out her blog on FormatMag. She also contributed a piece to the show.
The turnout was great. It was especially nice to see a few folks that have been hidden in their dungeons for months come out to support.

The energy in there was nothing but love.
Jason [ of The Shadow Plastic Label ] rocking their silkscreened tee.Yay - that was fun. This was my very first piece up on a new york gallery wall. Im so glad Lichiban included me in her show. Thanks darling.

stay tuned,
