i love soup.

Monday, March 31st, 2008

OK, I just had to share. The hubs and I became a bit addicted to this show, “You Are What You Eat” on BBC America a month or so ago. We decided to make a bit lifestyle change with our eating habits to get healthier. Anyway, I made one of the soups from The Plan this morning and I just love, LOVE… LOVE IT! It’s too bad you can’t lick the screen to get a taste.

So it begins… finally! I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time now, trying to build up the courage to just do it!

Although my background is in Graphic Design (which I adore), I’ve somewhat recently stumbled into this wonderful world of sewing! I am certainly still a beginner, but I am just completely obsessed really with fabrics and the potential that lies in them. What really gets me excited are the possibilities of marrying my love for design and sewing!

I am also a passionate thrifter, an avid DIYer, an aspiring photographer and a closet trash collector! My poor husband feeds my thrifting habit. D and I take on DIY projects together on a regular basis and have been known to grab old furniture right off the curb! (Usually in the middle of the night!) It is simply amazing to me what gets tossed. I have always had a weakness for photography, and am still trying to get the hang of it. And the trash collecting, I just can’t help but see the beauty in old, weathered papers, glass, metal and anything really that I happen to stumble upon and find fascinating.

This blog, I hope, will exist to inspire, encourage and further both my creative potential and yours!
