"You are a douche."

February 9, 2009

I was reading another blog call "Verbatim" and came across these cute cards.




Aren't they cool? If you're interested, you can get them at "ORANGE32" available here. I think they are cool. As Verbatim writes in her blog, "Tired of arguing with complete morons? Simply hand one of these cards to the a**hole in question and walk away." Perfect!

Question of the day: Can you freeze butter?
Answer: Yes. I searched online for an answer because I have been buying butter when they are on sale and freezing them and worried about the expiration date. Serious bakers might argue differently with this. But since I am not a hard-core baker, I think it's fine. Put the butter in the original box inside the freezer. You may want to wrap it if you have opened the box.

Below is a project that I started earlier last week. It was suppose to be from a pattern that I bought called "Bali Bowls" by "Aunties Two". After struggling with it, I gave up. The below project is a small bowl. The instructions are from a book call, "It's a Wrap: Sewing Fabric Purses, Baskets And Bowls" by Susan Brier. She has her own website which is called "Susan's Stitches". Below is a fabric bowl, approximately 7 inches in diameter used with batik scraps that I have. This is going to be one of those "emergency gifts".

*Update March 3, 2009 * There is a tutorial available online on how to make these fabric bowls. Have fun.
