yummmm. i made these for a studio mate’s birthday this week. i wonder if anyone will pick out that i inadvertently used the same palette i use for paintings…hmm.
speaking of culinary delights, i recently had the opportunity to sample something that was most definitely NOT good to eat– i’m talking about the epicurean atrocity that is chocolate skittles. i’d consider myself something of a candy buff (i think this is the fancy way of saying I LOVE SWEEEETS without the manic, drool down the chin bit). now, while i have an inordinate appreciation for all things sugary, i knew full well that chocolate skittles were probably grosser than gross. this didn’t stop me from buying a pack and trying each flavor of skittle. i have to say, the “chocolate pudding” flavor skittle is pretty good. the rest, not so much.
in other news, none of the projects i’ve been working on are finished– such is the life of a full-time student, part-time worker, i suppose. the BF’s birthday present is sitting half-finished on a pile of fabric right now, making it…about a month and ten days late. and not very close to completion. and he hasn’t broken up with me yet, wow. (i distract him with yummy things to eat. they take much less time to make).
despite the creeping progress on the already-in-production projects, i broke down sunday and whipped out the sewing machine, determined to get something done. i’ll keep it a secret for suspense. it’s called a CLIFFHANGER. i will tell you a key ingredient was heaps of these:

heehee.
