But here I am with time to blog, and no camera to hand, so I am going with the fact that it’s probably better to get a post up than not, despite the lack of eye candy.
Oh wait – a crappy picture is better than none, right?
Look! It’s my thumb, but also LL holding a first place trophy! Woo-freaking-hoo LL! If she earns two more of those before May 1 2012, she will be eligible for 2012 North American Nationals in Chicago in July. Here’s hoping!
In other news, may I introduce you to some chocolate that is perhaps the most divine chocolate I have ever eaten, ever? And I have eaten a lot of chocolate! It is raw, gluten- and dairy-free, ecologically sensitive, and screw all of that, it tastes divine. The name of the company is Gnosis and it gets the MBT seal of approval. I tasted it at the Chocolate Expo at the Meadowlands about ten days ago and wish I hadn’t cheaped out but had bought some more. It is not a bargain by any stretch but it was so delicious a square at a time was enough, so the smallish bar I bought lasted three days which is practically unheard of at my house. I had the Fleur de Sel flavor but am looking forward to trying more.
We went to Chocolate Expo so LL could meet Buddy Velastro of Cake Boss fame. She did, he was charming, and I will talk more about that when I am near the camera because I actually did get some good pictures of them together.
In other news, in case you hadn’t heard, I decided to stop producing new episodes of Getting Loopy. I am at peace with the decision, but last night I didn’t quite know what to do with myself around 8:00 PM on a Monday night. I kept feeling like I was missing something – that I should be somewhere else! But I will get used to it. You can still download all the archived episodes at ITunes, now and forever, but I will be dismembering the GL website and premium account at BTR shortly before the end of the year.
Working hard on some new submissions, waiting to hear on the fate of some others, and have many many new patterns coming out in the Hooked for Life pattern line soon. Sometimes change is good!
She looks so Cute! But do you have to curl that hair for every compitition? WOW!
Yay for a new post! And here is hoping like crazy that you get to Chicago in July, because we will have to do dinner then!!!
