Yet another...

Here is another amazing blog that I came across yesterday. I love the leopard print jacket she is wearing. And I really like how you can wear the leopard print with jeans or a skirt. I believe this is just one of the classic necessities that all women need; at least something leopard print.

Boba Tea Experience

So a couple weeks ago, we went to the asian market and bought the things for us to get started on our Boba Tea business. We ended up buying 3 things: Tapioca Pearls, Green Tea Milk Powder, and XL Straws (for the tapioca pearls). First off we cooked the tapioca. Then we started messing around with the tea recipe. If we needed to add milk or hot water to it to make it DELICIOUS. We ended up Boiling Hot water then added black tea to the water and then we put the green tea milk powder into the black tea and then put it over ice. And Finally added the Tapioca pearls, and we ended up having the perfect 1st drink. 
Heres some pictures of our little adventure.

Doilies & Bows

Pretty soon I am going to start working on a couple projects.
The first; because I have all the stuff to make it, is going to be a Doily Necklace. Its a Tea dyed doily attached to a gold chain to make something so simple look so elegant.

Business Idea

 My brother & I are truly serious about this idea. This summer (2011) we want to open up a Boba/Bubble tea shop or a stand. I absolutely LOVE boba tea! You can get it iced or blended w/little balls of tapioca. It might take a lot of money at first to get the business started and going but in our area we don't have anything like this. So im hoping it will be a hit and everyone likes it! I think mostly I want to do this for me since I can't get it unless I drive 4 hours away.

New little Present



I made these little LegWarmers for my little niece who still yet has to be born. She is due in March So hopefully when winter comes they will fit her perfectly!!! Their color is Gray and then there is White hand stitched floss along the top and bottom. I have a feeling they are going to look pretty cute on little chubby legs. :)

You Like What? #1


Many people don't know, but I play the Ukulele. I have been playing for about a year and I absolutely love it! Im not a beginner but I'm definitely not pro, so I guess that would make me fall somewhere in the middle.

New Blog Project:

So this may be a completely dumb idea but I was trying to think of what kind of posts I could put on my blog and one of the things I thought of was..."Things that people don't know about me" So that is exactly what I have decided to do. If it doesn't look good on my blog, you will not see it on here anymore but hopefully it will stay.
