WEEKEND

and finally it is here - the weekend with amazing, but cold weather.

Brian was out of town for 9 days and I'm so glad to have him back. I hate being by myself at night. Also right now there is not really any reason to be scared in our neighborhood at night. Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn are filming "Neighborhood Watch" across the street from us (3pm - 6am) and the police is EVERYWHERE.
Yesterday I went over there with my american-mom Bj. It was fun, but freezing cold. Ben Stiller had one scene he was filming over and over again and we had to scream NO MORE MURDERS.

That was the view we had. Ben Stiller is the guy next to the E with the blue sweater and the white print.

We might even be on TV for about a tiny second when it comes out. After two hours of mostly waiting, we decided on going home. I heard them from my bedroom till well after 4am.
  
While Brian is now completely exhausted from working like crazy, he fell asleep the minute he saw the bed! :)

So I'm in blogland, looking for some new project to start on. Right now I'm working on my first Christmas present for the year, which I can't share with you until Christmas of course. 

But since I can't work on that project 24/7 I was thinking of improving my cake pop skills. There are so many awesome ideas out there and I just cant figure out how to create perfectly shaped figures. So for the next couple of weeks I will just try to make fun colors and cute decorational ones with different kind of cakes and hopefully get the feel for it to move to the advanced level. I have to say, they are already super delicous and I could eat about 20 a day. 

Hope you are enjoying your weekend!

Wing Chair Recovery - Part II

Image
Only for those of you who already forgot how the wing chair looked when I first got it, here is a picutre which I took in the thrift store! For the amazing price of $18 it is all mine.   Too nasty to sit in, I first ripped off all of the fabric, (I'll spare you the details, since I blogged about that before ) layed the old fabric out, cut the new fabric pieces a little bigger than the old ones and made little fabric piles. I bought about 9' of fabric online at http://www.fabric.com/  I kept all of the old buttons, cut little circles and sewed fabric on each of them. I can tell you, that was my least favorite part.    After all 27 buttons were done, the back seat was the first piece that I re-buttoned.   The buttons go all the way through the fabric and cushion - the back part gets spread apart and rests on the foam. I put the cushion in place and stapled it firm to the back. Repeated all those steps with the seat. For the arms, I had to put some more battin

My new toy..

Last week when we picked up our new dining room table at Borders, I became the lucky owner of a CRAFT ROOM! I’m still so excited about it. My own private room where I can have all my little projects lined up and organized, or just all of them messy, laid out in the room with the door shut. You already think, what does this have to do with a new dining room table? Let me tell you! J We had this spare room before and couldn’t decide what we are going to do with it. We have two guest bedrooms upstairs, one already furnished for guests the other one empty. We were thinking about renting one room, but I’m just not that kinda girl. I need my privacy and want to lay on the couch whenever I want to, without a stranger in my house. I thought about a baby’s room – but I guess that is a little too early. SO I came up with that perfect idea, since the room is empty anyways to have a craft room! Brian gets the garage and I get a room for myself! Deal! So last Saturday when we picked up the table,

The Nursery - Final reveal

Image
  I know you couldn't wait any longer to find out if we are going to have a boy or girl. I don't keep it any longer from you, I promise.   Both of us wanted a boy, but really just a healthy little baby is all we asked for.   Since I don't count to the younger childbearing generation anymore, there were some tests that I had to do. One of them is for down syndrome. Scary stuff, let me tell you. With that test though, you can find out the gender and when I received the call with the results, I immediately started crying. Happy and over the moon that the baby is completely healthy but totally in shock that it is a.... CAN YOU SAY BOY???   No wonder I have hair growing like crazy in my face, all this testosterone in me probably doesn't help the weirdest pregnancy outcomes. At least (so far) I haven't been too bitchy, hormonal. Don't ask Brian though, he would probably tell you differently.   I called Brian to tell him and the only thing he said wa
