In what space sir?! In what space!


That being said, I was trying to keep this blog strictly baking and crafting related but I've decided to break my own rules. So for anyone actually reading this...well, keep reading. Perry fella recently moved into his own place, so I made him meatloaf cupcakes with mashed potato frosting and crushed frito sprinkles... He loved them. I just used a very basic meatloaf recipe and they cooked for about 40 minutes...

Friday night, a group of us went to Pasttimes Pub to see The Downshifters (pictured), Hillbilly Hellcats, and Johnny Fire. We had an amazing night full of friends, dancing, and large amounts of alcohol. I also got to take the occasional gander at the taken stand up bass player of The Downshifters, again, pictured.




Here are Perry and Dean looking gorgeous of course. And here's a name drop... They recently opened their own gallery in the Village of The Arts community in Bradenton, Fl. The name of the gallery is Studio 14eleven.
You should definitely go see what they're all about... If you're in the area, the first weekend of every month there is an artist walk. A whole neighborhood of amazing galleries.


From left to right, we have
Jill, Perry fella and myself.
Jill knows how to have fun
like nobody's busniess. She's
fantastic. And I have already
made clear that Perry fella
is the Man.



I was trying to explain
to Perry that this was
my dance space, and
he seemed care very
little.






This is Josh, one of the prettiest men I know and my best friend. He's a photographer, an indie music snob and quite possibly drunk in this picture...


And this, THIS is my favorite picture of the evening. The two prettiest men I know (Josh and Perry). Perry was trying to drink a beer out of Josh's chest.





Alright, being none of that was crafty or bake worthy here are two aprons I whipped up the other day. I'm trying to get a good amount of aprons done for Girl Perry's gallery walk for December. I was trying to get some embroidery done, but it's just too time consuming considering my schedule right now. I pinned the aprons on the wall because I didn't have any one around to be my model at the time and sadly I am without a dressform.



Here is a simple green wallpaper print ruffled apron. It looks lovely on the wall, doesn't it?


Oh how I love this apron. It's a two layered apron with two pockets.

The majority of anything I craft is soft. It's the thing I look for first when I'm buying fabric, I usually shop with my hands alone. I love finding hideous patterns and unusual colors. I'm still not entirely comfortable with ordering fabric online, but I will be trying it soon. Alright, I've got the rest of my week ahead of me and small hopes of whipping up some yummy cookies before the weekend. I'll be sure to post relatively sooner.... Goodnight!!
