Crawfish Boil 2012
A funny thing happens when you enjoy yourself at your own party...
it's a strange way to start blogging about a party, I know. But, this year, for our 8th annual crawfish boil, we had to the party: lots of crawfish, lots of friends, and lots of babysitters. Instead of running around with the camera and taking pictures of all of my decorations (which, of course, were meticulously planned and looked pretty cool), and friends, I just chilled. I actually ate some crawfish. Thankfully, I did remember to take the one traditional photo...
Here's what they looked like in one piece!
I had a great time, but I do miss looking through the pictures. So, next year, in addition to the friends, crawfish and babysitters, I think I'll hire a photographer too!

NOW I am famous.
I am on Tori Spelling's blog!! Well, not ME, but my hands. And also, some of my craftiness. YEEHAWW!
Look here if you don't believe me.
How did this happen? It actually comes from being friends with a celeb... Stef Pollack who writes the amazing blog Cupcake Project came over one morning to do some baking while I was working. It was fun! We listened to polka music because there was nothing else on. She needed pictures of her creations, so I got to be her hand model. Here is my hand:
Really, it's my hand!
Also, her super delish cupcakes were baked in eggshells, and to pretty them up just a little more I made some little flags she stuck in the top.
I guess Tori thought they were pretty cute! 410 people repinned that little picture of Stef's adorable cupcakes and my little flags. That makes me happy.
