Saturday, January 22, 2011. Morton Salt Girl Costume. This costume was years in the making. I originally made and wore it myself in the late 1990's (1997? Bought a big yellow dress at Goodwill and cut it down to make this:. My task for Halloween 2009 was to cut it down to size for my then 7 year old daughter. I took off the sleeves and the skirt portion, hoisted them up a bit and reattached them. Brought the waist in a bit and added better pleating to the skirt. Fast forward to 2010. She's grown a bi...

Friday, November 02, 2007. Wisdom of a 5-year old. Ira Glass and This American Life. I am now officially addicted to "This American Life" on NPR. Actually don't listen to it on NPR (I think it's on Sunday afternoons? So now I am interested in reading Vivian Paley's book regarding this experiment. V acted as though it made total sense when I explained it to her. Thursday, November 01, 2007. Recent happenings in no particular order:. V's first trip to horse races at Bay Meadows. Strongest Girl in the World.

Liana's Lifetime: May 2009
http://lottaviano.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 08, 2009. Friends, Romans, Countrymen. V's 7th birthday earlier this year was a real Roman feast! I envisioned gold and silver leafy crowns, but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for in my price range, so I bought gold and silver leaves (like the ones used for corsages) with wired stems, and made my own by twisting them around metallic pipe-cleaners.

Monday, May 14, 2007. In other news, I received the Summer 2007 Philatelic catalog from the U.S. Postal Service and was surprised to find a new addition to this year's stamp releases which was not originally publicized in the 2007 collection: Star Wars. Still think my favorite of the year will be Pollinators. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Cook Around the Block. It appears my blog is broken - photos missing. So much to see, so little time.

Liana's Lifetime: February 2010
http://lottaviano.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 22, 2010. An Olympic Caliber Birthday. We normally downplay V's even-numbered birthdays, but because this year was an Olympic year, I just couldn't resist. I figured that by the time she is turning 12 she won't be as excited about a themed party so I'd better celebrate it now. We invited three girls from her school for a slumber party and two of them accepted. The plan was to award "medals" for a "make your own pizza" competition, so I made each girl an Olympic. Medal out of Fimo. Think,...
