Fourth Doctor Scarf

Good evening everyone! And happy Thanksgiving (if you celebrate it)!

So my SO is a big fan of Doctor Who (as I have become), and he looks an awful lot like the Fourth Doctor. So, inspired by my wonderful roommate, who made a scarf for herself last year, I started in on a scarf for my SO's 24th birthday gift. It was a long, and very hard process, but I am so proud of myself! The finished project is lovely, he likes it, and I feel very accomplished. (:

Here are some pictures - I think they came out quite well.







Cheers!

Hello 50 mm!

Good evening everyone!

Today I went on a little adventure and used my 50 mm lens for the first time. It was fun, but I don't feel completely confident in my use of this new piece of technology. I'm sure I will. Anyway, I thought I would share with you what I took today. Not my best pictures, but I actually do like them. I've talked enough now; take a look at my pictures!

Cheers!

New Photography!

Good afternoon everyone!

I know I haven't posted in quite some time, and I apologize for that. It's been pretty busy - I'm in my last year at Uni, I got a promotion, moved into a new apartment... And I got a new camera! That's not so much part of the business, but boy am I glad to be taking pictures again.

Last weekend my lovely SO Nick came to visit (not only to see all of us folks in Minneapolis, but also because our friends were getting married!) and we had an adventure that involved walking along the path by my apartment, exploring St. Paul campus, busing over to the Minneapolis campus and seeing the Civil Engineering building and the new CC in Coffman, and finally ending up at Annie's Parlor (one of my favorite eateries around campus).

Even though it was quite cold outside and we were sorely under-prepared for the weather, we both had a lovely time. I brought my new camera with and was able to snap a few pictures that I really like. I feel pretty rusty, since I haven't done any photography in so long, but it was wonderful to be taking pictures again.

Anyway, I think I've chatted long enough! I hope you enough the photos!

Cheers!

Vintage Recipe Tin






Dzień dobry! (That's good afternoon in Polish!) Today I worked another exciting shift at the Village, and I came home with this treasure! I originally planned on spending no money at all, but I found this and a cute little mug for my mother (since she has one that matches already). I've been looking for a cute little vintage tin for my recipes, mostly the ones I collect from the internet (so I don't have to print them off and keep them somewhere, and also so I don't need to be on my computer to look up/use the recipes) and I found one! Yay! And for only $1.69! I am quite pleased indeed.

And now to make some treats for my Uni's Vday party on Tuesday (I'm excited to try some new recipes out)!

Weekend Adventure

Xin chào! (That's hello in Vietnamese!) My mother and I took a trip to Northeast MPLS this past Sunday, and while it was rather chilly out I enjoyed our adventure! We visited Fried Bologna Vintage and I discovered that the owner visits the thrift store where I work a lot! Small world, eh?

Well, I didn't get any pictures of my outfit, buuuut I did snag some pretty awesome photos of the scenery. Enjoy!
