Success

I would say today was successful. We met with our friends for dinner at Amaya's Taco Village. I highly recommend this Tex-Mex diner. I didn't order their specialty but instead Amaya's two chicken and cheese enchildas with verde sauce.  The best! Seriously, better than Matt's and El Patio...Elsi's and Arrandas.

I was also able to finish Elf #2. Remember the army of pinecone elves I thought I could create? Building armies doesn't happen when you have a 40 hour day job and chores. Completing Elf #2 was the ultimate success. He's a bit odd looking though but he is an elf so open to interpretation... always. Sewing those tiny lil mittens and shoes and turning them inside out is uber difficult because they are so freaking teenie. Trying to get them to all match up makes it even harder.

Somewhat of a success was finally procuring a molinillo for only $3.19 at Fiesta. DOH! Of course, Fiesta. The one I ordered better be worth what I paid for it otherwise, I'm a chump! But we at least get our Mexican hot chocolate, um... tomorrow because the day is quickly coming to a close. There are only so many hours in the day after I put in eight at the office. I'm tired. This blog does not belong to some blissful domestic wonder living in crafty land with nothing to do with nothing but free time to create, marvel, photograph and upload. I have to be up before you do. However, after tomorrow I'll be putting in a significant amount of time as a temp in that crafty, domestic world.
