I can't read numbers!

How about that! I spend all my time reading, reading and reading beautiful works of literature and I can't read a stinkin' number! When I ordered the cockateil feathers I didn't read the description completely. I read the words and skipped over the numbers! I received two of them (that part I got right) but I was expecting them to be at least twice the size they are... 1 7/8" inches! Not even 2 inches!

The first thought that came to my silly head was, "Dang! That bird must be a teacup bird or something!" Then I remembered birds are teacup sized anyway. Hahaha

I'd google the bird to see how big they are but I don't feel like giving myself the willies over it. (Birds,  eeeck!) I just always thought those big, scary birds they have out at the pet stores were cockateils.

Oh, well. The tiny feathers are still usable! Then, I ripped open the other package that came in today thinking it had my macaw feathers in it (and I would be ecstatic because that means they were shipped earlier than expected) and there was a stinkin' camera strap. Not for me! Anyhoo, back to work! I'm starting a paper on Shelley's Frankenstein and one of Blake's poems.

Sneaky peaky!

Here's a sneak peak into what went down in the lab tonight:

So we've got some bows, a rose, a little piece of candy and yes those are donuts. Easier to tell they're donuts when you've got 'em in your hot little hands. Speaking of...

No ring bases yet. Silly me ordered them from China.... uh oh! Of course I only ordered them today but I think I might be hunting some more down that I can get my hands on faster. So if you really want one (and I can do any color) let me know and I will FIND a way to get your order out. These aren't going in the shop yet so please comment or leave me a post on facebook.

Working on hearts and strawberries next! Oh, and I have Macaw feathers on the way, so look out!
