Another Liz Lemon Moment

It's been a hot minute since my last blog. There are a lot of things going on here right now. I am trying to get some more aprons together for you before I load any to Etsy and being pregnant has been (to say the least) a very interesting new development that is taking some getting used to.

I'll do my best in the near future to leave you with a more involved blog but it's been a while since I left you with a Liz Lemon moment.

And now, Liz Lemon:

Etsy Updates and Roadside America

This past Friday there was an Etsy update (as promised). And as I said, I have come up with something that I have yet to find anyplace else online. So I am happy to announce that Pro-Portional Designs of Om Nom Nom Studios is the home and creator of the foodie baby bib (maybe I'll have a cuter way to put it in the future.) There are now two new sections in the store, children and http://www.etsy.com/shop/ProPortional?section_id=6905791.

The other day I was out visiting some family and saw the pumpkin water tower in Circleville, Ohio (that I am sure i have seen before but never really thought about.)

While I was working on these pictures I wondered about other water towers similar to this and came across:

The watermelon water tower in Texas


The Peach water tower in Alabama

Not quite food but still delightful is the coffee pot water tower in California


There are others but I thought it was amusing.

It's come to my attention that one of the items I will be offering is being made by someone else despite my secrecy. I'm a bit bummed but know that original ideas can be few and far between. As my father told me when I was a little kid - "anything you can think of - someone else has already thought." This sort of thing has kind of happened before and sadly it will happen again.

The main item I plan to offer is still safe but I may be moving up the release date from April 1st to some time in the next week. Stay tuned on that if you're as excited as I am.

A Word On Where On Earth I Have Been

Alright, it's been a while since I made a blog post. But according to the who-visits-your-blog-tracker-thingie I have it says no one actually reads this anyway. Disheartening.

There kind of haven't been a lot of fun stuff photo opportunities because for the last weeks Ohio has been pretty much buried in snow. Then as soon as we all poke our heads back out again and think it's safe - WHAM! Snow. Which is what happened once again today.

Lately I have been thinking hard about summer appropriate knits for the store. I have some ideas and can't wait to get a move on them. Someone recently pointed out to me that they felt my online store got huge fast. I didn't think it was really all that big - I was hoping to insure whoever came to shop had a lot of options to choose from. Anyhow I said all that to say this, yarn costs money, and in general I never have a dime to my name. So I've been saving up all my dimes to try and get myself another tattoo - or rather to add to my most recent. So until I have it I won't be spending too much more money on yarn.

I do have a few more winter ideas I would like to move on and probably have the yarn here to make - so we will see what happens from there.

The Uniform Project chocolate chip cookie scarf has been getting a lot of views but no purchases just yet. This is a good time to remind all that a portion of the profits will be given to The Uniform Project for each scarf sold or order placed in advance until the projects end. The more scarves I sell the higher the percentage of profits I can donate. I'd like to manage to at least $360 so we can help one Indian child.

I suppose that's all for now. Toodle - OOOO
