come join me and juicy lucy in the bedroom

so this evening i was supposed to do a hilal bellydance workshop, but am blowing it out for my friend lucy's birthday for a couple reasons...
1. there is nothing sexy at all about hilal bellydance!
2. i need to focus on my tribal drills for shows in december.
3. it's juicy lucy's birthday!!! and i gotta take care of her as she is going to be my personal bitch at THIS

yes, i shall be teaching granny square crochet and selling my buntings and scarves at the underground farmer's market over bonfire weekend.  if you have never been to an underground supper club even then you must come along and experience the food rave that is the house of ms marmite lover.  she is truly a visionary of the new DIY age.  she's turned her uber-top secret beautiful house location into the funnest restaurant experience i have been to in a long time - and what she is doing with her indoor house market is amazing and inspiring!

in fact, i just had to fill out a survey on some women in biz website and when it came to role models - the only person that came into my head was ms marmite lover kerstin herself!  if you know me in real life you know that this isn't something i would say lightly - as no one is as old or as experienced as moi in most things, lol!

please do come along.
hang out with me and juicy lucy in the underground bedroom market and enjoy!!!

knit/nut roast

mmm...yum!
sunday knitroast is now definitely a tie for my ffavourite all time stitch and bitch ever - thank goodness that the crown and two chairmen put the heat on for us today...but unfortunately they ran out of their lovly nutroast. the chipotle pies are just as good though! i know because i sampled the one on fingersandtoes' plate! so lovely to meet her in the flesh and hear about her latest adventures.

then home and onto deal with life.
needed a martini.

will fill you all in later...am bedded down in front of the tv for the rest of sunday
(with laptop and crochet of course)

if its tuesday it must be prague...

headed down to hoxton knitters again tonight and i'm still feeling it is my fvourite stitch and bitch so far! i really like prague bar - good beer, nice people and excellent tunes - and the louder the music gets the more crochet i seem to get through!

last thursday's iknit was just as nice too...but sooo packed out that rafrasilecs and i decided to head across the street to the pub for a couple and hoped for it to thin out...i had a lovely cocktail made of gran marnier, lime, and red chili! do have to say i was more than a bit tipsy just from the one by the time i got back to iknit. luckily it was no longer standing room only and i got to catch up with the lovely yvonne stash.

won't be making it this thursday though as i've got a wedding party to attend...and i've finished a lovely crocheted dalek as a present. my friends are going to love it!

now back to the tv coverage of today's obama inauguration.

just barely back from milan...

newly tattooed and freezing to the bone!
it wasnt' that much warmer over there but i'm really feelin' it today - so off to have a nice lovely facial over at the beauty lounge in a bit...and as its just underneath my local shop 'all the fun of the fair' i shall definitely be popping into there - especially as i'm missin' the launch at iknit today.

so much to do but i need to rest before i head out.
hardly slept at all last night as was out with our tattoo artist til around 2am and then up at 4:30am for the car to the airport...but it was worth it to see the 'black keys' play in such a small venue and to score such lovely tattoos.

i now have butterflies and flowers added to my back to start filling it in, and rafrasilecs has a pretty pretty cherry blossom and tibetan flame shoulder piece...and i even snuck in enough stitch and bitch time while he was getting tattooed that i made another 4 skully squares for me afghan!

photos to come...xxx

stitch but no bitch please...

i really really really want to go to the stitch and bitch at the maple leaf on monday evening after work as its just on the other side of covent garden...but i don't think i know anyone that goes along to this group and a few people i know that have tried it have said that they pretty much live up to their name and its quite cliquey and hard to break into...but i want to go along and form my own opinion!

o dear.
guess i could just go along for a drink and if i feel comfortable i could whip out my crochet.

or is there anyone reading this that goes along that i could tag along with please?
