.......A very belated christmas and a happy new year

           I have been away and not posting due to my previous post about my picture uploading dilemma.

The very helpful Amy from the blog, Amour Et Chocolat  brought to my attention that I can use a image hosting online site to upload my photos, which had not occurred to me. It does add an extra step, but I am oh so thankful that she helped my panicked self realize a way to solve my problem, the free way. 

:-) 

Thank you Amy.

Anyway, here is a short account of my laid back, lovely simple Christmas.

We didn't have a tree this year, and my brother ripped apart all my fancy wrapping before I could take photos.

We ate yummy veggy food, and I very happily stuffed myself to the extreme  :-)

I received a gift card to TOMSshoes.com,

a red Kat Von D lipstick, and cute yellow and red fingerless gloves.

Also this is a semi outfit post of what I wore on Christmas.

My kitties Alice (black) and Chubba (gray)

My "famous" brussels sprouts



Lots of garlic

Cannot post any more photos

So, the weirdest thing happened. I tried to upload some photos to my post and Google pops up a little message saying that I

"used up all my free 1 GB of space"  and wants me to "purchase more"  WHAT?!?

I didn't know that I had a limit on this blogger site?

I just wanted to ask anyone if they have experienced anything like this.  Any input would be incredibly helpful.

.....Snow and rain and blur

It's been on and off alternating, snow and rain for the last two days and I think it's the strangest thing.

Work is cutting back hours, ahhh I feel the pain.

And so I leave you with two random photos I took, enjoy.

......White Christmas

It has been snowing non stop all day today.

And it is lovely.

I got this really great Christmas sweater at the thrift store, and just in time!

I must say I'm happy with my find. It reminds me of the latest Urban Outfitters catalog.

Also, I made my friend vegan green tea cupcakes for her birthday.

=)

......Dreamcathers

Today I finally had a spare moment to add 11 new dreamcatchers to my shop, Wendy Helene.

I'd love you all to go take a look and maybe find one you like :)

 

......Large sweater

One of two I found thrifting the other day.

I love over sized sweaters.

Don't you?

It is so incredibly windy today, I'm amazed I didn't blow away.

It is also the reason I won't be able to photograph the dreamcatchers I wanted to add to my shop today, I made about 11, so once they are all up I will post about them.

.....Stars

Again.


First two of myself, last of a friend.

......Sleepy skies

I planned to do an outfit post today, 

since it's my day off from work and I was relieved of my blah dress code.

But then I fell asleep. And the sun went away.

So I ran outside and snapped one, I didn't capture the outfit as I'd hoped. 

I'm still getting used to using flash photography.

                                                                
                                                                

.......Tricky haircut

Today I went in for a haircut, well, a trim. 

But when the lady went to frame my face, I told her an inch, maybe two, and she cut about SIX.

You can imagine my horror as my hair dropped to the floor and I realized it couldn't be fixed.....

The result? I actually, surprisingly, like.  

It doesn't look freakishly weird that the front length differs drastically from the back, it's actually kind of pretty.

And oh so voluminous! So I can't complain.  

And now I know what I look like with short hair, and I think I like it.

Hmmmm.....

......You are beautiful

New Free People shirt.

And new shades.

 Despite the snow, I wasn't cold at all. 

It was actually warm with the sun.

That strip of hair color? Yeah it's a tester of what I want my whole head to be :)

.....Thanksgiving

How was everyone's Thanksgiving?

Mine was lovely!

I drove to cali to my cousin Lina's house for my Thanksgiving and got to see all my great family and friends, and eat lots of yummy food! I had this amazingly yummy tofu "turkey" as we call it, my mom makes every year and some different vege-loafs and all the wonderful sides, including this amazing sweet corn cake mexican stuff.

I made two vegan pies to bring, apple and pumpkin. (the two furthest in the back in the photo)

Their house was so cutely decorated, with bunting and flowers.

 Also a few pics of Lina's room and all her darling details and collections.

And the mini dreamcatcher I made her. :)

The last photo is of my brother, he just learned to play guitar.
