Fish, Chips and Call the Midwife

Recently I have been re-binge-watching Call the Midwife, mostly because I forgot where I had left of and decided to start over again. It reminded me that I had this look lurking in my outfits folder for a while. You see when I was sorting my inventory at some point I put this dress on and I thought it made me look pregnant, but pregnant in the 60’s. Now the Call the Midwife memory jog makes sense if you have ever seen the show.

Since the show takes place in England I thought fish and chips would be the perfect pregnancy craving. Maybe not the healthiest, but way more normal than some other cravings I have heard about. Ironically when I was pregnant in my non-digital life I craved certain things which ended up being some of my kids favorite foods. My first kiddo LOVES Reece’s peanut butter cups and Reece’s Pieces, while pregnant with them I always wanted a sundae with those toppings. With my second it was peach iced tea and Apple Jacks cereal, both of which that kid LOVES. Has that been the case with anyone else out there? Enough of my non-digital prattle, onto the credits!

When you have been in SL as long as I have and hoard all the things you can sometimes no longer find them. I am sorry about that!

Keeper of the Bees

Recently while cleaning my desk I found a list of photo ideas I had at some point. I decided that I would try and complete that list of ideas and this is one of them. I was inspired by the horns dripping with honey. Also with Fantasy Faire starting later next month I need to get my fantastical-ness going!

I admit that I owed almost 95 percent of the items for this photo before taking it but I did decide I needed special honey earrings. What can I say when I pick a theme I go a little hard.

Mushroom Afternoon

One must wear only the finest of hats when foraging to find a cache of mushrooms and apples. Of course taking a break and having a little read before popping off for another look see never hurt a person. Lets me fair nothing beats the feel of lush green grass on your feet. This does of course mean that your feet get a touch dirty, but I assure you it washes away quite easily.

One must never go adventuring in this day and age without a way to communicate should an emergency arise. Or to check out the latest tea being spilled by friends and foes alike. Not that I would do such a thing on my phone, nor do I assume you do either.

Neverland Fight Club

The first rule of Neverland fight club is you don’t talk about it, but if someone does Enforcer Tink is on duty. Now I am not saying she is brutal with that bat, but I am also not saying she isn’t. I have a feeling she got me one night after taking these photos because I woke up to a mysterious bruise on my arm (I do have a random bruise in my non-digital life that I can remember getting). For someone so small and seemingly delicate she can go HARD with that bat!

Needless to say I think I messed up and now she is here to mess me up. Does peter know about this? Is it Pan sanctioned? Is it something she does with the pirates on Captain Hook’s ship? I wasn’t able to get too many answers as I am currently in hiding from her menacing pixie presence!

Bonnie Anne

As it is St. Patrick’s Day I figured I would skip the usual shamrocks and green and go for a little homage to an Irish pirate, Anne Bonny. A fierce red head who pillaged and plundered in the Caribbean. I admit I did not do much research on her, but she did make good inspiration for a post today and an excuse to dress like I pirate.

She may look pretty with her long red curls, but I assure you she would run you through with her sword given a reason. Or maybe that is just me when I am cranky? Either way enjoy your Sunday (or whatever day it is you read this)!

Not Ready to Say Goodbye

We got a little sneak peek at the cold winter we are to expect here in the south last week and let me say it makes me want to hold tight to fall (I mean I do have a little bit till it’s officially winter). I will however happily trade pumpkin spice lattes for peppermint mochas. Of course, I don’t have to miss out on seeing geese because in theory because this is the south they fly to in the winter. I have already seen a flock by the pond near my home.

Family Secrets

Imagine you are in a Hallmark movie and the whole idea is you get these letters from your great grandmother and must learn the family secret. I will admit I am a Hallmark Christmas movie watcher. They are cheesy and predictable and make for a festive background sound when I am working in my office in my non-digital life.  I have another post in the works about things these movies have made me think about Christmas. I will admit for years I thought there was a family secret in my family too, but it turns out I was wrong.

Pretty and Random

I am at it again handing off my pictures to someone else to play with. I promise it’s not going to happen in every post, it’s just some times I need some help (especially when my body is being a jerk). I wasn’t cleaning my inventory when I took this picture. I was really just trying to avoid doing any sort of “real” work. Yeah my inventory is still a wreck, but at least I am enjoying myself right? I feel like this photo could be selling something, what I am not sure, but something. Any ideas?

Randomness

Every once in a while I decide to sort the chaos that is my inventory and I end up styling a look I just have to share. This is one of those times. Did any one else just read that in the “Law & Order” voice? Just me? That’s cool. Anyway I was playing with the blazer and trying to figure out what would look good under it when I saw the corset and well the rest as they say is history. I shoved the photos off to my silent partner to edit to his hearts desire so if you don’t like them it’s his fault. I am only kidding, don’t blame him!

If it weren’t for the wedding ring I would say I look like the main character from a Hallmark movie about a busy city girl trying to find love in the fall. I am none of those things though so…yeah.

The Witches – Water witch

Last but certainly not least we have our water witch. Coming up with a familiar for her was a bit more challenging. I mean a shark would be an awesome familiar to have, but you are a bit limited on how it would be able to help given that it needs a large body of salt water. Let’s be fair it basically eliminates all fish from the familiar equation, so we need to look at amphibians. That led me to the golden poison dart frog. Most people may not keep a poisonous frog as a pet, but I am sure a little spirit magic could mask it. Who wouldn’t want a beautiful but deadly familiar? Not to mention I happen to be a huge fan of poison dart frogs of every color.

And to end this little series a group photo…
