You can stand under my umbrella

This post has nothing to do with the Rihana's song...but everything to do with an umbrella. I'd seen this DIY stripped umbrella project on whatiwore that I loved. I wanted some colors so went with VIBGYOR and this rainy afternoon completed my little project. It took a couple of hours while watching What happens in Vega$.

 

Woot!

Highest score (513) ever with three bingos.

This is the cake I made for pre-Valentine Day Scrabble play. My first foray into decorative icing using sugar sheets. Took about 15 minutes to draw the template, revise and cut! Not too shabby eh :)

My new roomies

Late last year I moved into a new place with three roomies and two of them are adorable dogs (they don't share rent but do help keep the kitchen floor clean).

Bentley is a little old fashioned and always wear black and white while Mowgly goes with a workspace khakhi look.

[ Delayed New Year's Post ]

Last year was a year of change - of shifting focus, energy and direction. And this year is going to be an extension of just that and some more.

I think each year should be a landmark in life like - the year you graduated, or got your first job, or got married. And the easiest way to do that would be by introducing new things in your life - pursuing a new hobby, traveling to a new place, finishing up pending projects.

This year, I plan to learn a new computer platform, hike grand canyon and improve my scrabble skills which already are on steroids ;)
