Todays make up

When I was done with the make up and put on my coif I took a look in the mirror and thought I looked so French!
The dots and things under my eyes looked like the Eiffel tower all of a sudden.

Todays look: Parental meeting

Today was parental meeting.
Of course I toned down the Goth me and went as a more respectable.... hahaha,  did you really think that?!
I went as the usual goth me of course.

I often get the question about how I'm treated by the other parents looking the way I do?

And the answer is: I feel like I'm treated like any parent, not different in any way. I never feel like I'm looked down on or someone frowning at the way I've decided to present myself. I find people in general are very respectful and don't mind my looks.

Or it's just that the people who's got something bad to say just don't live that long?
Not that I would have something to do about it, but I could imagine someone with sharp teeth would take the chance to delete a few uncomfortable people from my area.

Todays look and goth make up

On my way to this evenings "date" with Cajsa.
.
Porsche, my price winning International Champion siamese cat, joined in on the photo.

Pretty Cajsa and me at Wayne's Coffee, where we both ordered tea as we chit-chatted about how our looks makes the world a prettier place to live in. You don't have to thank us  :)

I had on a spiderweb shirt, a sequin skirt (one I bought, cut off and added a ruffled lace) and my spiderweb stockings.

Nice touch with the garbage chute to the left...


Spiderweb make up today. And a soft, silvery shade all the way to the eyebrows.
Web painted with Kryolan Cake Eye liner and CEL sealer.



Lashes only on end.

Ahh, what a lovely day I've had <3 p="p">Like my new pillow? It's from H&M.

BatBrat company

I'm making a pair of legwarmers with a cross and an organza bow on each to be put in the webshop tomorrow.
I sew so hard I broke off the needle!

During all of my years of sewing I have NEVER broken a needle while hand stitching! By machine? Sure, like a thousand times. But this was the first.
I think I'm in some kind of shock now..
Not to worry - no blood was spilled (sadly).

Crafting: Bread basket

At my break I had a cup of tea and painted the second coat of my basket I bought for 5 sek (less than a $) last week.
I'll turn it into a little bread basket.
Perhaps I can put my cinnamon buns in it when it's done :)

Baking: Cinnamon bun Day Part 2

After about 30-45 minutes go check on your buns.
Depending on your inner temperature they might need some more yeasting. They should about double in size.

After 30-45 minutes yeasting "the professioonal way" (in OFF oven
with a pot of boiling water at bottom)  your buns are HUGE!

Brush them lightly with egg mixture (1 egg, 1 tablespoon of water and ½ teaspoon of salt).
Pour on heavily with pearl sugar.

Toss them in your oven. 

Eat, eat, EAT!

Baking: Cinnamon bun Day Part 1

So far I've done this:

Mix all the ingredients for 10 minutes. No need to melt butter and heaten milk. The blending process will make it warm enough for the yeast to wake up.

Put a towel over it and place in a warm invironment.
40 minutes later it will look like this.

Put in on your baking table with just the smallest amount of flour.

Use your rolling-pin to make it B I G.

Spread butter/cinnamon/sugar mixture on half of the dough.

Like this.

Now gently fold the dough together.

Making it look like this.

Shred the dough to about 20-22 pieces.

Cut it into a pair of pants. (You don't have to do this step. You can move on to the next one, but I always do it like this)

Tvist it.

Turn it. Number 6 makes good buns.

Tuck in the little end in the middle. Makes it look like a turd, right!

All the little cinnamon buns in their little homes.

Other view.

If you are going to eat the buns today - put them in "paper cups" (what the hell is the english word for that?) to make them look nice.

But are you going to put them in your freezer I recommend you NOT to put them in paper cause it will only fall off and make you swear.

And now my little buns are safely tucked in to grow and be a bit bigger.

Put in a warm, and preferably bit moist place, for about 40 minutes.

(The professionals recommend to put them in the oven (on OFF) and put a kettle of boiling water at the bottom.)

And this is where I'm at right now. Waiting, waiting....

You can't watch me!

Nooo, I'm not paranoid at all putting a pink bow sticker on my computers webcam.....
And you know: it is possible for people of no-life-just-messing-with- you-things to actually kidnap the webcam.
You'll see! Mark my words,MARK MY WORDS!

Baking: Cinnamon bun Day

Today is the Swedish Cinnamon bun Day!

So it's like a rule to make Cinnamon buns today.

If we don't do it, or at least eat one, we'll have to go to jail.

My dough is just ready to be made into buns so I'll go carve it up real good.

Picture soon...

Old picture of the day

In my late 20's.
No bangs so I usually had a brooch attached in front to draw attention to my PERFECTLY rounded forhead (as I have mentioned to be my best feature) ;)

Adora, why so serious?
