My latest dyeing project fared much better than my last.  Since I was working with cotton, it was a less toxic and trying process.  I’ve always loved ombre, so with internet resources as my guide, I was off into the kitchen.  Making a dye bath is really like cooking soup.  You add a dash of this (color) and that (water, salt, white vinegar) and voila!  Lemon/lime ombre.  So delicious.

I wish I had one of his knitted, netted ski masks to go with this outfit.  I wonder what the proper etiquette would be for wearing one.  Maybe instead of taking it off for supper you could just use specialty RO chopsticks.

Moustache Man and I were taking a stroll around the neighborhood when we came across a shop selling LD Tuttle samples.  Of course I had to do a little browsin’.  Imagine my delight when I found The Clear Pipe.  I was obsessed with the pipe heel a year back when MM showed me The Keeper, but it never made it to production so I couldn’t get my hands on it.  My heartbreak is all but forgotten.  I couldn’t be more pleased to stomp around, twirl and do a little dance in my iron heeled LD newbies.

I’m rounding up links . . . leave a little note if you’re feeling it.

I picked up my new The Helmet sandals last week, but alas couldn’t wear them because of the weather.  Rain, rain go away!  Since we had to shoot inside, Moustache Man and I decided to go get a prop perfect for the occasion at our local army surplus.  We grabbed some vegan breakfast afterwards, MM’s first experience with anything of the sort.  He was a good sport, and I liked it fine.  But who am I kidding . . . I need my bacon!
