Rosemary and garlic roasted pork loin

In a white wine sauce accompanied by white rice. My friend recently shared this recipe with me and it seemed simple enough so I gave it a try. It turned out sooo good. The aroma of it roasting is great and the flavor of the wine sauce makes the dish <3 Recipe can be found here:

Mini 365: Week 2


Mini 365 Week 2
Originally uploaded by Atelier Cupcake
Proof that time passes super fast I'm already done with my second week of my mini 365 project! I had to play catch up today because I was out these past two days trying to fix some problems with my job and I would come back home exhausted. I hope this doesn't happen to me again for a while I hate having to play catch up :( My favorite pic this week is probably the one with the tiny rocking horse, that piece of re-ment is pure joy <3 We'll see how well I can complete this week since classes officially start on Tuesday, wish me luck!!!

Mini 365: Week 1


Mini 365: Week 1

I started 2011 with a resolution of taking more pictures to improve my photography skills and when Sioux (milk&Kisses) presented me with the idea of doing mini 365 project to showcase or miniatures I had to join in. I had tried to do a similar project last year with a re-ment 365 but was unable to complete it. I am hoping that no matter how hard it gets when I get back to work or even if my equipment fails not to give this one up. Every week I will be making a mosaic like this one to showcase that weeks mini pics and will make a blog entry about it. I hope you all enjoy this journey with me and follow along *hugs*

New year, old pics XD

For those of you who don't know me since way back when (those livejournal days anyone?) I started in this dolly hobby with Pullips in 2005. Back then it was all about Livejournal, PullipParade forum (wow!) and TIB forum (I also started with Blythes a bit later that same year). Back then I didn't even have a digital camera and I would use my ex-boyfriend's new digital camera all the time XD I remember I took over it until I finally bought an HP point and shoot from my brother. This was my first dollhouse when I started collecting Pullips. I don't own these girls anymore but I still have all this furniture, or most of it. I love this barbie bed set and the Bratz 60's egg chair so much. Those were the days of the cool My Scene furniture and awesome fashion fever clothes <3 Wow has it really been so long already!!! I miss my old Pullips and would love to get more than my actual girls (Lala and Stica) maybe this year will bring me more Groove girls and maybe a boy too ;)

Wow it's been a while since I've blogged here so I'm gonna take this chance to say sorry about that but I will try to keep this more updated. If you have a commission from me waiting I will be working on them tomorrow and Sunday to try and get at least 2 of them out which are Emma mas and cineflix first then Aprils.
Other than that small update I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving day and weekend. I had a great time with family and friends and then we went to a insane black Friday sale @ TRU and got Inara a TON of stuff. She's pretty much set for a year on toys I think ^^; We aren't going to give them all to her at once because she'd probably wouldn't pay attention to them all but I'm sure she will be getting some for Christmas and some for three kings day and then some maybe for her bday O.o...we got a lot lol!

New clothes for the dollies

I recently got a jacket from these same ppl and it was amazingly well made and arrive fast so I'm hoping they will be here tomorrow since it was in NY earlier this week and that's some crazy fast shipping considering it was shipped last week from Asia. I will make an opening vid when this and some other things I'm keeping a surprise arrive soon :)

I got some more cute goodies coming as bday pressises to myself. The more expensive doll ones have to wait till I get pais at the end of the month but I am a patient girl, lol! I also have a Nappy choo, an SD10 Volks F-01 Sara and another surprise doll coming as my real big pressies. For those of you who don't know I was out of work for almost a year and the goverment agency I'm working with owes me 3 months pay because they hadn't put me back on payroll. So when that big fat check comes in I'm getting myself some awesome bday presents. My bday is on the 22nd and I get paid on the 28th so some of them won't be here till November but meanwhile I'll be getting these. I have coming a full set princess tea set, an unoa freak mook, an air hostess Nikki cat and a Nikki keychain :D I am slowly crossing things off my wishlist but it will be a while and as more cute things roll out its hard to stay on track ^^:

Eep shirt and other kawaii goodies!


This afternoon I went to buy some grocerIes to make tacos (tee-hee!) and could't resist looking for some dolly stuff @ my local mall. We got a ton of adorable items like a kawaii panda lunchbox which will function as a nice padded dolly carrier, a bunch of tiny no-snag hair elastics to use as bracelets for the blythes, pullips, dals and bjd tinies, some human szed tihts to recycle into dolly sized stockings and the BEST RAINBOW CONVERSE for msd bjds :D The shoes are supposed to be like photo holders and are both the same foot side but I don't think i'll be that noticable on the doll :P I man what more can you ask for $1 measly buck each lol XD I love cute bargains, especially if my dollies can use them :D
Today was also a great dolly mail day because we recieved Littlesheep-April's costm made "Gamer-girl" tee and we are head over heels for this adorable top. It's PINK! AND it has a rainbow studded ATARI logo on it *_____* How much more 80's retro goodness can you pack into one dolly tee?!? <3>

For the love of goddddd

I need to blow some serious steam. Where to begin...we'll perhaps about 1 year ago when this whole thing started. I thought I'd made a great friend in someone who I'd met on a local doll meet and the when she approached me online I started speaking to her on a daily basis and little did I know that I was creating this huge monster that would follow me in everything I did and everywhere I stepped online. Have you ever had something simmilar happen to you? A person up and trying to clone your whole style? I mean this person basically used my Flickr to obtain my contacts through my faves and then slowly started to clone my style and online behaviour to a point that makes me sick. I have talked to other flickr pals about this who have shared simmilar experiences and they seem horrified by this happening to them too :( When I say clone I mean it. This girl copied from the way I styled my dolls, to the style of clothes I make for them, to the camera lens I wanted to get, to all the toys and figures I fave and want to get. She only collected bjds and I introduced her to Blythes and dals (who suppossedly she didn't like) I even SOLD HER ONE of my Blythe girls *cries* And now she's getting blythes and dals and even taeyangs??? Worse of all she still can't take a good picture (or even focus it for that matter) or know how to edit them, she as her husband do that for her too and does't give him credit). I have been holding this in for so long but it's just too much to stand anymore. I mean seriously I told her I wanted I light tent and some nice lighting for indoors (since I tend to take pics late) and its too dark and she got that too. Then I start making mosaics to display my pics on flickr and what do you know she started doing that too. OMG like I'm flattered and all that this person seems to look up to me so much but I don't need that in my life, its too complicated with other things at it is and this doll, photography, toy collecting hobby was the only thing that used to relax me from everyday tensions. Now its become a nightmare on clone street and it just won't stop. She's always snooping through my things and getting everything I want first. I would tell her about a doll, or toy I got and I hadn't even finishing describing it well and the next day she was already posting pics of the ones she got before I even had a chace to post pics of mine. How do you even react to such crazy behaviour??? I've tried so many approaches but nothing seems to work and I just wish I could go back in time and not have schooled her in my ways without knowing it. This perosn has wayyy too much time in her hands to keep spying on my activities its driving me insane. Also the worst part is that she keeps pretending to be this uber nice and sweet person to everyone else in forums and flickr when she is obviously not. To top things off worst she takes all this credit for being this person she is NOT and most of it its her husband who actually does everything for her from taking pics for forum contests (and her taking the entire credit for doing so) to giving people bjd aesthetic tips and tutorials when he's the one who paints all their dolls. He rearranged her Flcir into sets and took off a lot of the really bad pics she had and now mostly posts the shot he takes and she has the nerve to go and block ME haha when I should be the one runing for the hlls to begin wth XD Even worse than that is that after shes done snooping around she will make posts about things as if she knew anything about what she's talking about and she gets all her info from wikipedia XD Its hilarious. One time I told her about my favorite childhood anime Candy Candy and she decided to watch the whole thing and review it to everyone on the forum like she knew everything about this series she'd never even heard of prior to me talking to her about it *cringes* What's eveeeen worse is that her husband really IS someone who likes all this stuff like videogames, anime (I mean a doll/bjd lover who isn't into anime and manga? really?) she's just leeching off of him too and pretending to be this whole persona she is not when the one who likes all this stuff is him and others she's copied from. *UBERSIGH* Well it doesn't even stop there because I've talked to other people who know her and they've told me she's done simmilar things to them too such as copyig things they wanted to buy or things they did like craft hobbies and such. To top things off I once tried to confront her about this and she acted all innocent like as if she wasn't doing any of this even though she wrote me an email stating a ton of things (that I hadn't even pointed out to her yet) that she copied from me XD Too much really omg helpppppp me! Ok if you have nay ideas seriously let me know what you've done in a simmilar situation? I think I might just start doing the same but how do you copy someone who's copying you? :P *crawlsintoasafeplaceandshuddersofcreepiness*
