Meia Draws...

I've been doing some drawings with markers lately, too. I felt like doing a chocolate version of my usual pink frosting-inspired shapes:


This happened very randomly, without even choosing which colors would go next. (I would close my eyes and dip them into my marker bag and use whatever came out.) I thought it ended up looking like a melting flower:


And then while Dan was working I caught sight of our reflection in the TV. It seemed moody and alienated, so I thought it would make a good drawing:

Meia Makes ...Frosting Sculpture

Well, it was time to play with frosting again! So on Friday I got out the butter and powdered sugar and food coloring and made a mini cake out of two chocolate brownie cookies.

I took about a hundred pictures, so I posted them on a page so I wouldn't fill up my front page with a ton of pictures that may look exactly the same to some of you. ;p Here they are:


And something to tantalize you.


No, I didn't eat it. The frosting still is sitting, still is sitting...upon the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door...and its eyes have all the seeming of a demon that is dreaming...

Oh wait, that's Poe. Sorry, I get a little carried away sometimes...

Meia Makes ... Fluffy Skirt!

I finished my fluffy pink skirt just in time for Fair!


It had a drawstring waist, so even though it was a bit too big, I was able to cinch it up tightly enough. And, it was comfy!


Next, to add the flower details onto the drawstring:



STRIKE A POSE! I loved wearing this skirt at fair. I was worried it would be too hot, but it was surprisingly cool.
