Happy late afternoon + holiday weekend, friends and foes! Bambino must realize it’s Easter, because he’s laying eggs all over the apartment. Bambino you STINKA. … Oh, does that piss you off, Bambino? Are you offended?
Well GOOD, Dirty Harrybutt, because *I* am offended by your AAASSSSS. Your ass is offending the living sheet out of me. Shut the back door, I’m not kidding. I’m gasping for air in here.
DIRTY HARRY BAMBINO: ”I know what you’re thinking. ‘Did he fire six farts or only five?’ Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track, myself. But being as this is a .44 Fartnus, the most powerful fartgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you’ve got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?”
ME: Wow. Ok, I’ll lay off.
ANYWAY! Without further adieu, here’s the write-up from the lovely and very stylish, Janna, whose submission to our Hunger Games Reader Challenge was the other amazing winner! Take it away, Janna…
I read all three Hunger Games books in five days. This clearly illustrates two things: 1. I loved these books and 2. I have absolutely no life.
In book one, Katniss finds Peeta injured in the arena. He is hiding by the river, deep in the woods. Over the next week or so, Katniss nurses Peeta back to life in a cave along the river’s edge. This part of book one (which, spoiler alert, is given no where near enough attention in the movie) is one of my favorites because of how close the two become.
When I began creating my inspiration board, I knew I wanted to focus on that time in the woods. I chose lush, green, earthy images. I purposefully chose decor and details that were beautiful, but simple. Katniss is strong and compassionate, but not the least bit opulent. A giant reception dripping in flowers would only make her uncomfortable.
I had so much fun putting this together. Loving this new series!!
By the way; yeah, he sits like that sometimes. WEIRD, RIGHT?
So, as I was saying in the title, Bambino’s wedding attire is really starting to come together, don’t you think? Mostly thanks to Marie (who you may know from her shop Emici Bridal) who so kindly gifted him his new prized possession yesterday. I I mean we, WE, are very, very excited about it.
Which means… it’s happening, you guys, it’s really happening. I’m really getting my very own Honey Boo Boo Child, and I couldn’t be more thrilled about what it means for my many crushed childhood dreams baby and his own, personal, childhood dreams, that he, has, of his own.
Yeah THAT.
So…
1. what do you think of Janna’s stylish Hunger Games inspiration board?? Janna, I think it ROCKS THE CASBAH! (cashbar? cazzpah? Casper? and now it doesn’t even sound like a real word anymore, I hate when that happens.)
2. Do you have experience with puppy farts? And their terroristic qualities? Bambino’s *this close* to being added to the US No Fly list, they’re that bad.
XOXO! whoaa sorry didn’t mean to put that in all caps. - Alison
