Doesn't this look like candy? Yum! It must be Halloween season.
I think I am on a stash-busting kick- I've marked down the prices on everything in my shop, and I'm working on new designs to move through my piles of beads! Beads like this are too pretty to be left in a box, yeah?
I made a necklace. You like? I like very much! I think I have just enough materials left to make another. Or I could make two bracelets, or some matching earrings? I can't decide. The big beads are glass, shot through with rods of colored glass. The little green beads are stone. The whole necklace is made up of 20 individually strung pieces of wire, linked together. It's longer than I normally do necklaces, but for this kind of chunky weightiness, it works!

My little "Guess what Mimi is saying" contest is over...and no one won :( Aw sad! Even sadder, only two people had guesses! But cheer up, I'll have more contests. The next one is easier. You don't have to be a sleepy mom, who has stewed in baby babble for 7 1/2 years. (I swear, I used to have a REALLY high IQ. Straight A's in high school, honors classes. Started college when I was 16. Now, I can't remember why I opened the fridge door.)
Want this answer to what Mimi was saying? OK, watch this.
"Mom, you've got to get a new friendship! Because people are going to SPY in the 'quarium!"
(You should know, when I asked her to clarify, she held her hands up to her eyes in the most adorable "binoculars" you've ever seen. Just to make sure I understood what she was saying.)
Ready? OK, what could I have at an aquarium that I'd need a new one? My MEMBERSHIP. I need a new membership to the aquarium. Why? What do memberships do? They EXPIRE.
See what she did there? Because she didn't know either word, and just subbed in words...she....no? Watch for the next contest!

OHHH!! I stared at that post (off and on) ALL afternoon yesterday and couldn't come up with a reasonable guess! I am versed in babble, but my kids have enough of a different dialect that I didn't catch it. Next time!
Ditto on the brain gone missing. Mine went on vacation after my first and hasn't yet returned. Maybe someday I can rub two coherent thoughts together.
I tried closing my eyes and just "hearing" the words, but alas, it didn't work:)
