Music Monday: The Puppini Sisters

I can't believe September is almost over!

And so draws to a close my month of cover songs.
In honour of the quickly approaching month of October, I bring you a spooky little cover by the amazing Puppini Sisters.

Eye Spy ... Something I Shouldn't Eat But Do Anyway

All You Can Eat Sushi.



Somewhere deep down inside of me I know that All You Can Eat doesn't mean eat all you possibly can until you are in pain. I know this, yet every time we go I feel I haven't gotten my money's worth until I've eaten so much spider maki I have to be rolled from the establishment.

Weekend Wishlist: Spooky Little Girl Like You

September is quickly drawing to a close. How did that happen? This year is really flying by.
With the end of September, only one thing is on my mind: HALLOWEEN! I cannot wait.
I love everything about this time of year. The crisp weather, trees turning, dressing up, carving pumpkins, (the bags discounted leftover candy).

I started a search for ideas for this year's costume but I got distracted by all the awesome creepy and macabre things over on Etsy. This weekend's wishlist is everything spooky.

Music Monday: Robots in Disguise

Searching for some fab covers for you fine folks I stumbled upon this old video of Robots in Disguise. They look so different! And it's strange to see them not playing instruments (well aside from that little interlude).
Still, it's a fun little cover.


Weekend Wishlist: Globe Trotter

That's right, another new blog feature to hopefully keep me inspired and posting when my crafting has been less than active. On my old blog I used to have a feature called Wishlist Wednesdays where I would post awesome items I came across during the week. I've been seeing some pretty neat stuff around the net lately that I'd love to share, so I hereby declare that feature resurrected!

If you know me then it's no secret that I absolutely love etsy.com.
It's a great community with some seriously amazing artist and I've gotten a lot of unique and beautiful things there. However, there are so many amazing shops on Etsy that I often don't know where to start.

I was recently reading an Etsy Finds article that I found particularly inspiring.
In it, the author, Mike used Etsy's Shop Local function to search for items from places he hopes to travel to in the future. What an awesome idea.
So awesome in fact, that I made my own list and hunted for some fab items around the world.
