Adult Toys
So I finally got on with the long awaited task of adding some new goodies to the critter box line……… (about time right?) I’m really excited about the Valentine Craftacular at the High Noon in February and figured that would be the perfect place to debut the new guys, but of course I’ll let you guys take a peek first…… inspired by my trip to California Dolphins Koalas Pandas and my personal favorites…….Snails Anyone who reads my blog with any kind of regularity knows that every once in a while I kinda get attached to some of the critters……you know I love making them more than others and every time I catch a glimpse of them smile like a loon. Well the snails are my new guys for that……….I just adore them!! (many thanks to Kim of lula and deedee for suggesting I make them) I just hope other people will feel like I do about them. So now the countdown starts……….It’s less than 2 weeks for the aforementioned Valentine Craftacular in Madison and I am stabbying away in anticipation for it……. gaaaaaaaaaaaa better get back to it pronto!!!

Well the leaves weren’t all brown (does autumn ever really happen in California?) but the skies were kinda grey (I don’t think I had ever seen rain in California before but I’ve certainly seen it now) and we did go for lots of walks……………so 2 out of 3 ain’t bad huh? In truth we got very lucky with the weather the week in San Diego was beautiful, nothing but blue skies all the way. And I got to reconnect with the love of my life…………….The Hotel Del And we had the best room ever, a complete view of the hotel from the front windows and the pacific and the beach from the side…….it was lovely waking up every morning (not something I would ever say) and falling asleep to the sound of the sea was something I would love to get very used to. San Francisco had lots of highs and lows (barump bum ding) It was around this time the weather changed so we saw lots of rains. It kinda reminded me of British summertime very overcast and rainy but not particularly cold………This didn’t stop us having a great time though, we ate sushi from conveyor boats in Japan town yummmmmm and did I tell you how much I love Japan town? Everything is super kawaii it’s ridiculous, the motto in Japan appears to be be if it doesn’t have a face, what’s the point? I stocked up on much cuteness

But all I caught was some silly love bugs They are pretty cute but they have a pretty effective little bite……….buggers!!! I also made some Valentine candies So basically I am just excited to be going to California tomorrow. The snow is still thick on the ground here, and it’s bloomin’ freezing to boot, the thought of spending some time outdoors on the beach makes me jump for joy. Making the valentine’s goodies did make me excited for spring and Easter and warmer weather though………..alright see you in two weeks.
