more ghoulish creations from moi

























it's not that i have way too much free time on my hands. it's just that i'm really good at wasting time on my projects. i made these bleeding candles by dripping red wax down the top of white candles. the potions bottles contain 'eye of newt', 'frog spawn', and 'pygmy loch ness'. the eye of newt and frog spawn are really just whole mustard seeds and the loch ness is a little dinosaur toy that b gave me. i printed the labels and then stamped them with some brown and green ink pads, mod podged them on and even sealed the corks with wax so hopefully no one will try to open them. are they creepy enough?
my battle with the energy drinks is not going well. i was dead to the world until i broke down and had one about 20 minutes ago. now my keyboard is about to catch fire from how fast i'm typing. if you can, read this really fast and pretend like it's me talking and not stopping to take a breath. tink, i mailed your very belated birthday box last week. call me when you get it, but before you open it. it's a tradition that my mom and i have. you probably won't get it until tomorrow or thursday, though. postage is a real, well, you know...

Hey, you trying to unaddict yourself from energy drinks? Well, I just quit drinking soda about 3-4 weeks ago. Lost 9 pounds already. And I am sleeping at night like a dead dog. Never thought the 24/7 caffeine affected me, but looks like it did and I didnt know it. Either that or watching 8 children in my home each day just exhausts the holy crap out of me. Wonder which it is. Anyways, good luck with rehab. ~Molly
