Birthday Presents – Alita (Archived) 2009

15 12 2009

Hey, I thought this would be interesting to see. For Alita’s birthday this past June, I made her a book all about her. It is now a requirement to know about everything in there before you marry her. Alita is one of my closest friends, one of those lifetime, we’ll be friends when we’re grandma’s kinda friends. I have this thing where I like cutting out words and phrases from magazines. Check it – um PS it’s fucking long!

Happy Birthday to Olivia!! It’s her 25th birthday, again! I was honored to be invited to the close gathering of friends at an all-you-can-eat and drink Japanese BBQ restaurant on Civic. Fun times!!

Best part of our meal was when the super nice waitor came over and taught us how to cook the rice puffy thing:

Then you dip it in the honey and condensed milk. Notice Ola’s sweet new shirt – Where the Wild Things Are? YES!

Cresencio goes a little over board when it comes to all you can eat. Not only was he a hot mess, but he made Amanda a hot mess too. He’s a nice guy, so he always cleans up his mess:

We killed the shrimp. Unfortunately, we lost some antennae… er.. antlers…

We heart chicken hearts!! Gobble gobble! Amanda came up with the bright idea of taking a picture of the moment somebody eats something too hot, cuz their facial expressions are priceless! Unfortunately, I wasn’t quick enough with the snap.

Birthday Presents – Mel

6 10 2009

So, as a laaaaaate birthday present for my pal Mel, I made her a simple bag. Mel’s an organized kinda girl, and she said she liked Bananas. I got a fake banana (like I wore on Day 11 ) and used that as a zipper pull on a light yellow zipper. I thought that was kinda boring and recently watched 7 Things to do with a Banana on HowCast, so I typed out some of the suggestions. I wish I added Tequila Banana!!

Might do some more bigger bags, like duffels. Oh how I love DIY!
