Summer Day 24: HP VII PART II

Just a quick post before I am off to the midnight viewing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2! I have cried throughout the day thinking about how the end of my childhood is officially over. Literally tears running down my face! Anyways here are some quick (and poor quality :( ) pix we just took! Boy is Dumbledore and I am a deathearter!!!!

Summer Day 23: Heartland Humane Society

Today the Boy and I went to a volunteer orientation at our local humane society. We are both huge animal lovers and decided this would be a great way to spend the summer.

Do you do any volunteer or community in service work?

Summer Day 22: Habitat for Humanity ReStore

Today the Boy and I dinked around town, went in search of an elusive water tower, went out to lunch and treasure hunting at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore. Its a place where the public can buy used and surplus parts, tools, appliances and building materials, and it is quite fun for those of us who like to craft!

Summer Day 20: vegan pizza night!

 Every good vegan knows how amazing Daiya is! If you haven't had it- try it!

Pizza and beer. Who said vegetarians and vegans are limited to eating plants?

Summer Day 19: Something Wicked This Way Comes...

HP VII part II is coming up soon! If you can't already tell by my tattoo below I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan. For this premire coming up on the 15th I am dressing up as a Death Eater. For HP VII part I I was Luna Lovegood (hello- the hair!). Anyways today I went to the fabric store and bought the material to make my cloak and the Boy's Dumbledore's costume!

 Unlike the smaller projects I have been working on lately this job required a sewing machine, so I pulled out my not-so trusty Dressmaker (I believe its a 998 B) and after an hour of messing with it got the damned thing to sew. It still has tension and jamming problems but I'm getting the job done. Oh, ALSO I no longer have the pedal so that sucks extra golden snitches.

I will show off my completed look next week when its time for the midnight premiere!

Summer Day 18: BBQ

We had a nice little vegan barbecue on the back patio. Here in Corvallis we have been getting such wonderful weather- today I had a nice long nap poolside and got my tan on. Thats all for now my fellow fingernails.
