My Barrista Art

Well a month & half ago, i changed career's again, back to some graphic design with some awesome guy's here in Kelowna. It's freaking awesome.

here's some of my work @ artigiano durring my last days there.






I miss these every morning though.

Smiling Catfish.

We recently had some Death's in the fish tank, & our Cat fish is now very happy. Here's Amanda to tell you the tale. *sjb



Tis sad but true my friends, we were the proud owners of some black molly's just recently who have not survived the move. But as stephen mentioned we have observed the state of our catfish as much improved since the passing of the other fishies.

As "parents" do, we were watching him the other night and to our amazement we saw it...a smile. You may think us crazy but it doesn't matter to us because we know without a doubt that we have a Smiling Catfish.

power points.

we all have them, we all use them, we all know what they look like and how they function. you pick the location for say, the TV, you grab the cord, plug it in and "Viola".....Power!

am i right??? NOPE, not today, today looked a little different....

we picked the location for the TV, we grabbed the cord, we plugged it in and "Viola".....

POOF...FIZZ...CRACK...POOF...and smoke...lots of smoke...oh and then the realization that we don't have an extinguisher, and how does one go about putting out an electric fire if one were to occur?

needless to say, the female bryde was in a state of panic! lucky for her, she married an amazing hero of a man who swooped in, grabbed the TV (very carefully i might add) and quickly took it out to safe ground, where it continued to "huff, and puff" for about 30min.

so here we are, no TV and stuck with a monstrous power point.

our day of magic...

as a girl, well most girls anyway, you dream of this day all your life. it's like some sort of requirement or prerequisite to being a girl, must dream of future wedding...check. the colors, the dress, the flowers, the food, the everything. well i'm not gonna lie and say i hadn't thought about it, but i was never one of those girls who knew EXACTLY what they wanted.

then of course there's my now husband whom i'm sure most of you know quite well. and i'm pretty sure we can all agree in saying he'd never thought about it =) to be honest though and he may hate me for saying this, he had thought of it. but in a different way, he'd thought of the girl, the woman he would spend the rest of his life with.

so how would you explain our wedding, basically the same way you could explain us...simple, elegant, a flare of vintage, a bit traditional, very creative, somewhat quirky, but mainly simple.

and that my friends was "our day of magic".
