Going Bananas!!

Yes, I've officially gone bananas. Just kidding. I wanted to congratulate Hazel and Susan, who both were winners in the drawing for the $10 worth of goodies from Lovely Little Lovelies.

I didn't have a Friday Features segment last week, or a Tots on Tuesdays segment (which I would love to find a co-author for!) this week, because we were on vacation to Disneyland. Let me tell you, when it's 96 degrees with a humidity level of over 50%, Disneyland is NOT the happiest place on earth! It really took a toll on us, so much so, that we didn't do a whole third day, even though we had tickets for three days (you want to get your money's worth for spending that much on tickets, right?), we went into the park at 6pm on the third day, and stayed until closing. It was so much nicer because it wasn't as hot, and wasn't as crowded (it was Sunday). It will be a few years before we go back, now that we have a little one, so maybe by then, I'll be able to deal with Disney again. :-)

Alrighty, I just had to tell you why I named this post "Going Bananas". It doesn't really have to do with crafting at all (but then, I guess most of this post isn't about crafting), but I Stumbled Upon it, and thought it would be great to let others know about. I found this great article of sorts, on bananas, and why they are good for you. If you love bananas, you will love them even more after reading this article. If you don't, maybe you will learn to love them because of the article. ENJOY!

Tots on Tuesdays No. 8 -- Featuring OsoBaby (Ambrosia Delights)

Good morning and happy Tuesday! Congratulations to Susan, who won the $20 gift certificate from Bella Symphony! Thank you all for entering.

Today, I'm doing something a little different. I didn't get someone lined up to do today's feature, so I will be featuring my own shop, Ambrosia Delights. While I have jewelry, children's clothing, and baby items in the shop, I will be focusing on the latter two items.

I have been sewing since I was 6 years old, so just over 10 years now...just kidding! I have a passion for creating cute things for little ones, but I have no little ones...only a teenage son. I have tubs and tubs of fabrics, and just love taking them out and looking at them occasionally. I started sewing to sell in August of 2005, and I started OsoBaby, as a division of Ambrosia Delights, back last fall.

Here are some of my things:
