Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday to ya.
Zoey turned 6 years old on July 1st. Today was her birthday party. She is pictured hugging one of her little girlfriends, Tessa at the party. We had such a lovely time! Zoey is so grown up for her age, observant, polite, empathetic. I look forward to having a wonderful stepmother daughter relationship for years to come!

Yesterday, July 4th was our reception at Dogstar Books. It was cozy and delightful! They have such an elite selection of books. You could get lost in that little bookshop!

Pictured is an Octavian sandwich at the reception, with my friend's toddler Max:



Max is just dear, he is so sweet with the baby! We had a great 4th of July despite the rainy weather. I hope you all did too.

Tonight I finished up a doll I have been working on for a while now...
I am happy to report that I knit her a shawl!



To view details on all of her handmade goodness, go here.

One little find before I drift off to dreamland. These whimsy little knitting needles from loveoneworldzero.etsy.com



Take Care.

Thanks so much for taking a look!:3

Severance Package was pretty funny, but you can completely tell the author is a comic dude who has seen too many slasher flicks. if you're a pacifist, don't read this book. srsly. if dark humor tickles you, check it out.

i work a little bit in this sketchbook every night. it's getting supremely heavy and thick. anyone know where to buy larger bindings for spiral notebooks? yeesh.

currently reading: Taking the LEAP: Building a Career as a Visual Artist by Cay Lang. (suggested by mcdc3s.)
