Embroidered Cotton Italian Gown

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl back with another post, are you surprised? So with the world coming back to life this year, I needed to further up my wardrobe game! This summer, I had quite a few gigs in the summer which meant standing outside in the heat or in a historic building without air conditioning, so to keep myself from melting while looking fab, I knew I had to make a cute AF…

Dionysus Made Me Do It

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl successfully recovered from a wild Halloween and inspired to actually blog! So I’m sorry I haven’t really updated the blog in a while, I just haven’t really had the time to do it… Nor have I really had the desire to which I feel bad for saying. It’s not like I haven’t made anything nice this year to blog about, I’ve made this beautiful white cotton gown…

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl hunkered down and hoping for the best for the remainder of 2020.

Me awaiting to hear when things get back to normal and I can perform again

So to distract herself from the dumpster fire that is 2020, ya gurl has been busy making pretty things for herself in addition to men’s uniforms because, frankly, sewing linen over and over again gets OLD. I’ve…

OMG We got to Perform!!!

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl trying her best to survive 2020!

In the hot mess that is 2020, things have been surprisingly busy for me in spite of a severe lack of performances… It’s mostly been wrangling a mischievous cockatoo determined to hide under the bed and hiss at me like the little gremlin she is.

In addition to birb wrangling, I’ve been sewing like a maniac making things…

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl enjoying the joys of motherhood.

It’s a birb!

Well, sort of… No, I don’t have a human baby– the world might just end if I ever reproduce– I am the proud mother of birbs!

We match too!

Introducing Snowbird, the umbrella cockatoo!! She’s a precious little sentient muppet from A Helping Wing Parrot Rescue and she has a forever home with us. So far,…

Where Have I Been?

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl here for the new year!

So holy crap, where have I been? GIIIRRRRRRRRRLLLL (or guy or however you identify), I have been all OVER the place! Since getting married, I’ve been sewing my little fingers to the bone for clients, working on adopting a rescued cockatoo (whom I WILL make matching outfits for because I’m a crazy birb lady), and doing so many…

Spilling the Tea on a New Book

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl FINALLY MARRIED!!!!!

My peasants, I’m so sorry I haven’t written anything in fivever, but something big got in the way of my writing and that big thing is getting married. After five years of dating my soulmate, I finally get to call myself his wife– which is probably the best thing in the world, better than anything I can imagine. We moved to a beautiful…

The Witch Hunts: the Hysteria that Never Died

Yo waddup, my peasants? I’ve got a spooky guest post for you!

My girl Tiffany Apan from Tiffany’s Labyrinth and I decided to swap blogs for the day and boy does she have some fascinating information to share with you peasants today! I won’t keep you long, I just wanted to give you an introduction to my girl’s post!

The Witch Hunts: Hysteria that Never Died

I first started my…

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl another year older!

I hit the big 28 this year… And now I’m the same age as Theda when she was first discovered by Fox Studios, so who knows? Maybe this year will be lucky for me too! She claimed she was 24 but come on, she was 28! ANYWAAAAAYYY, so ya gurl had to work on her birthday but it’s okay because I was performing for one of my favorite sites,…

Yo waddup, my peasants? It’s ur gurl rediscovering her love of science and chemistry without all the trouble of balancing equations because screw that I don’t do math.

So, for some ungodly reason, I’ve gotten into historical food and baking. Don’t ask my how, don’t ask my why, it was merely a whim and now I’m totally into it. I’m not really much into the whole hearth cooking thing, that seems…
