Christmas Joy

I can't even explain why I haven't been posting. I think it has something to do with laziness, forgetting to take photos, and production week. Ah, production week. My nemesis. But its almost Christmas, I've nearly finished my shopping, and work is over. So hopefully this gets you in the Christmassy mood, because I gosh-darn love Christmas :)

What I'm Listening To: Fairytale of New York by The Pogues.

What I Desperately Want: These fantastic gingerbread biscuits from A Work in Progress

And if I play my Christmas list (or new year presents-to-self) right, I could make some with these

  

Star Wars Heroes & Villains and Message-in-a-Cookie Cutters from Williams-Sonoma

Antidotes to all of the food I'll be consuming over Christmas:

This gorgeous gingerbread house ring from DIVINEsweetness. The details! The photography! I am in love.

Or these macaron rings from shayaaron - lemon & lime, menthe, blackcurrant, or praline. Learning to make macarons PROPERLY, with feet, is my challenge for 2011. 

Stepping away from food for a second, I LOVE this headband from Janine Basil. And speaking of challenges for 2011, I also need to learn how to use liquid eyeliner. 

OK, back to food. I want Jacques the French Toast and his baguette buddy! (*Not a euphemism) From Pumpkin Pye.

What is happening with this sushi hair barette/why don't I ever pin my hair back? Gimmeswords, you have my undying love.

Any other cute food finds?

Etsy Finds: Drink Up!

Goodness, has it been that long already? Sorry to have left you in the lurch for a week, dear readers! However, as anticipated, I ended up living on leftover pasta and noodles for the entire week so I haven't really done anything noteworthy in the kitchen. Actually, last night I made some spiffin' good pasta with EnviroGirl but we were too terrified by Criminal Minds (Season 6 Episode 1... GRACIOUS ME. WATCH IT) to remember to blog it.

So, here are some delightful Etsy finds for your Tuesday :D
