haunted reunion...

it's almost time again... Brookdale Lodge is a beautiful haunted lodge located in the Santa Cruz Mountains! The first time I went, myself and 2 girlfriends had the most amazing time listening to live music and soaking up the atmosphere! We were also lucky to stumble upon a wine festival just up the street! and one of us fell in love!(it was me) All the planets were aligned! The redwoods surrounding it are magical, the lodge has a river running through the dinner hall and boasts a ghostly spirit of a young girl some locals have witnessed themselves. The surrounding yards are drenched in shades of green and babbling brooks! and we're about to embark on this voyage again- just 1 year and roughly 3 months later! Reunion time! Music brings out the best in us doesn't it!

IAN anything!

My first taste of this genius was when he was with Nation of Ulysses while I was just 15! I would've done anything in their honor! Melt melt melt at the music. His career has spanned this entire time and every reincarnation has made me a fan. Bless this weird little mess of a man! Times like these I wished I lived in NY... but only then because I LOVE LA!

It contains no chlorophyl and feeds off a host tree. It's a root parasite and it's needles are softer than an average redwood. Pretty awesome!

We are all hoping to post that on here but don't wanna get in trouble by doing it tooo soon.
Next, mom got a new sewing machine because the other one blows and the motor is dyin out. Black Willow Clothing is about to happen soon! yay.

Just completed these wedding gifts for my friends.
I made them a quartz crystal pendulum for which I'm yet to make a pendulum chart. Thinking of using flat bark...
Then I made:

Both include secret sacred herbs.
Gooooo love!
