Thanks for the lemonade!

What is your favorite "pick me up" song? Here's mine. It's called "Lemonade" by Chris Rice. The music is so fun and catchy while the text is really optimistic. It put a smile on my face every time, and I can't just help singing alone. Enjoy!

(If you love this song and would like to hear more from Chris Rice, I recommend "When did you fall in love" and "Untitled Hymn". Search for these on Youtube, or better yet, buy the CDs!)



"Lemonade"

So go ahead and ask her

For happy ever after
'Cause nobody knows what's coming
So why not take a chance on loving
Come on, pour the glass and tempt me
Either half-full or half-empty
'Cause if it all comes down to flavor
The glass is tipping in my favor

Life gave me lemonade and I can't imaine why
Born on a sunny day, beneath the tangerine sky
I live life without pretending
I'm a sucker for happy endings
Thanks for the lemonade
Thanks for the lemonade

Now take your time to answer me
For the beauty of romancing
Is to calm you trembling had with mine
While begging love to fill your eyes
I can hardly breathe while waiting
To find out what your heart is saying
And as we're swirling in this flavor
The world is tilting in our favor

Live gave me lemonade and I can't imagine why
Born on a sunny day, beneath the tangerine sky
I live life without pretending
I'm a sucker for happy endings
Thanks for the lemonade
Thanks for the lemonade

I've got it made
Rest in the shade
And hold my love
While God above
Stirs with a spoon
We share the moon
Smile at the bees
More sugar please
He really loves us after all
We're gonna need another straw
We're gonna need another straw

Life gave me lemonade and I can't imagine why
Born on a sunny day, beneath the tangerine sky
Life gave me lemonade and I can't imagine why
Born on a sunny day, beneath the tangerine sky
I live life without pretending
I'm a sucker for happy endings
Thanks for the lemonade
Thanks for the lemonade
Thanks for the lemonade
(Life gave me lemonade)
Thanks for the lemonade

Creative, funny, caring, potter, disorganized

#2. What goodies do you offer in your shop?


Ceramic whimsical creations including cat, butterfly and fish themed pieces

#3. How was your shop started?

I read about Etsy on a discussion thread on the HGTV website. Thought I'd check it out. Opened up my shop, sold a bowl right off the bat and was hooked!

#4. What are some unique things about your shop?


My fish teapots.

#5. What or who inspires you?


The large scale butterflies were inspired by the work of Georgia O'Keefe. She loved to blow things up, zoom in and explore flowers. I love to blow up b-flies. Besides Georgia, the 4 cats we used to have that are all now in kitty heaven, and coral reef fishies (from our days of scuba diving).




















#6. What is the item in your shop you enjoyed making the most and why?

Girls Night Out Lola and Sonya Out on the Town - I had the idea, and as I thought more about the project I kept coming up with more things to add. They're over the top funny and make me laugh. I was so excited that the teapot made it through all of the firings. You have no idea.

Contentment...

... be content with what you have, because God has said,
“Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you.”
(Hebrews 13:5)

















("Contentment", original painting by StudioJJARTWORKS)

Today is not necessarily an easy day for many of us, and we vent our discontentment in many ways. Recently, I'm praying about confronting a dear friend of mine for constantly putting others down with criticism, which does not say so much about those people are but more about how unhappy/discontent he is with his life... Suddenly, it dawns to me that his and my inability to be content with our circumstances actually hurt us so much more than others, and we are unknowingly pushing joy (and other people) away by refusing to rest and be content.

Contentment is indeed a choice, not just a feeling. Just like love.... Yet, it is definitely not an easy thing to do... So, in case it's getting too hard to be content, God, in his infinite wisdom and love, comes in the picture to give us the most logical reason and the only encouragement we need in order to be content, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” Nope, my life is still no where near perfect, but I guess I can truly rest now in this great promise... If the God of the universe is on my side, why am I complaining and refusing to let go of my frustration with life and "let God be God"?

This familiar little verse has been a huge encouragement for me today, and I hope it will give you hope as well. How about you? Are you embracing this promise for yourself today? Let's rejoice in our Lord...

"Banh xeo"


















"Banh xeo", pronounced pronounced bahn sow, is a a delicious crunchy chewy crepe that is dear to the heart of all Vietnamese Southerners, including myself :). The word "banh" means "crepe", while the word "xeo" describes the sound of the crepe when it hits the hot skillet. Its vibrant yellow comes from a sprinkling of turmeric, and the filling is a combination of pork and shrimp, scallions and bean sprouts. Every savvy "banh xeo" lovers takes pleasure in wrapping chunks of the crepe up in lettuce leaves with herbs and dipping them in "nuoc cham", a special dipping sauce made out of fishsauce / nuoc nam and other seasonings.

Here's a wonderful recipe that you can easily follow and make your own delicious "banh xeo". Don't hesitate to give it a try!






















(From left to right, top to bottom: flour mix, shrimp and pork filing, Mung beans, bean sprout, "banh xeo" being cooked, dipping sauce)

Banh Xeo
Vietnamese Crepe

makes 2 crepes

Crepes
1 cup rice flour (Thai versions are fairly easy to find)
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
pinch of salt
vegetable oil for frying

Filling
4 ounces small shrimp
4 ounces sliced roast pork
4 scallions, sliced
2 cups bean sprouts

Wrap
leafy lettuce leaves
fresh herbs such as mint, Thai or Vietnamese basil (optional) and cilantro

dipping sauce (see below)

In a bowl mix the rice flour, water, turmeric and salt.

Heat a little oil in a 10 inch non-stick pan and cook the pork and shrimp. When cooked through, add the scallions. Add a little more oil, you may need a tablespoon or two to make the crepe very crisp and chewy. Pour in 1/2 cup batter on top of the fillings and tilt the pan to spread the batter into a crepe. Top with bean sprouts and cook for several minutes until the bottom of the crepe is beginning to turn brown and very crunchy. Fold the crepe in half and drain on paper towels. Serve with lettuce and herbs and dipping sauce.


Nuoc cham dipping sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon chili paste or a chopped red chili
2-3 Tablespoons fish sauce
1-2 T lime juice (or lemon juice)
1/4 cup water
1 clove garlic, minced

Mix all the ingredients, taste and make any adjustments you like.

Voila! Here's your finished products! Yum!

Wednesday's "Hidden Gem": AngelinaFongDesigns

I don't know about you, but I do look forward to featuring great Etsy artists every Wednesday and Saturday not just because of the "warm and fuzzy" feeling of supporting the creativity and talents on Etsy but also because I always learn so much from them!!! So, are you ready to meet another great Etsy Artists?

Today, let's forget IKEA for one day and focus on the contemporary art and Home accessories (pillows, acrylic paintings, etc.) of Angelina Fong of AngelinaFongDesigns. Angelina is originally from the Bay Area (California) and live there currently. Her shop recently joined Etsy on April 9, 2009.

















Here's our pocket interview with Angelina of AngelinaFongDesigns.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥


#1. Describe yourself in 5 words.

Creative. Ambitious. Outgoing. Sincere. Outspoken.

#2. What goodies do you offer in your shop?

Colorful, contemporary art and accessories for the home-- ranging from decorative throw pillows to original canvas paintings.

#3. How was your shop started?

I've always loved to create beautiful things through a variety of creative mediums -- sewing, knitting, crochet, painting. Friends and family have been telling me for years "You could totally sell this stuff!" but I always thought they were just being nice. After receiving more and more requests from friends and coworkers to buy my work, I decided to go full force and turn it into a business!

#4. What are some unique things about your shop?


My shop features items that are both stimulating to the eye as well as to the touch. With my pillows, I incoporate a variety of fabrics to create a unique mix of patterns, colors and textures. You will also see a lot of bold colors and textures within my paintings.

#5. What or who inspires you?

I draw much of the inspiration for my work from various elements of the Asian arts, jazz music and nature.



















#6. What is the item in your shop you enjoyed making the most and why?


Lavendar Jazz. This is a piece that I was conceptualizing in my head for a long time before actually putting paint to canvas. It incorporates several loves of mine --jazz music, art and the color lavendar! In this piece, I tried to capture the essence of jazz music broken down to its most basic elements and the ways in which jazz simultaneously exudes simplicity and complexity in its form.


♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Beside her wonderful shop , Angelina also has a blog (www.angelinafongdesigns.blogspot.com ) where you can get to know her and her work better. So, don't hesitate to drop by and say "Hi"!

Does this darling put a smile on your face like it did to me? If yes, then don't forget to come back next week to meet the great mind (and hands, lol) behind this and lots of other incredible pottery, JudyBFreeman. Until then, Au Revoir!

A cure for your Monday Blue!

Happy Monday, everyone! So, many of you probably do not know that I'm taking hairdressing class right now. I actually finish the basic training, i.e. basic hair washing/blowing, coloring, perming, cutting, and I do enjoy it very much. Can you tell I'm all about making women look their best :)

So, I thought it would be fun to share with you guys an easy-to-follow tutorial on how to create loose waves with your curling irons:) It's the most helpful tutorial I can find. I tried it, and it worked!

Saturday's Featured Artist: Sosorosey

Hi friends, are you enjoying the last few days of July(By the way, there's only 2 more days to participate in Papillon Jewelry's Monthly Giveaway)? Today, we'll visit one of my favorite home accessory shops on Etsy, where you can find incredible upcycled fabric crochet items like these colorful and stunning coasters below! Let's give a loud round of applause to Jennie of Sosorosey! Jennie is from Manassas, Virginia, and her shop joined Etsy community on Nov 22, 2007 and have has 460 sales thus far.























Let's pick her brain! :)

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
#1. Describe yourself in 5 words.
creative, sentimental, perceptive, thinker, old soul

#2. What goodies do you offer in your shop?
I call my shop an “Elegant Eco-friendly Crochet Boutique “. I design and create functional treats for the home, baby, and soul including many unique, upcycled fabric crochet items.

#3. How was your shop started?
I discovered Etsy in November of 2007, and was a buyer only for a couple of months. I quickly became addicted to the community and decided to dive in and see if others would appreciate what I have to offer.

#4. What are some unique things about your shop?
My shop is uniquely “me”. From the banner, to the photos, to the props and descriptions I take great pride in every detail. I love popping into my shop and strolling around! Customization is a special and super enjoyable process with me, and each item is always presented beautifully and lovingly to its recipient.

#5. What or who inspires you?
Besides the many amazing artists that inspire me every day on Etsy, my main inspiration comes from fabric and vintage colors and patterns. I walk out of every thrift store with tons of new color combinations that I want to try out!






















#6. What is the item in your shop you enjoyed making the most and why?
I REALLY enjoyed making the Love Your Mother rag rug. It was created for an Earth Day team challenge, and I had a great time dreaming up the concept and putting it all together.
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23295759

#7. What advice would you give to artists who are new to Etsy?
Etsy can be a lonely place, and it can be hard to keep the faith in your work when you first get started. Hang in there! Stellar product needs to be backed by phenomenal customer service and excellent communication. Always consider your shop a work in progress, always be willing to listen to suggestions, never underestimate the value of your time and effort, and never say anything in the forums that you wouldn’t want plastered on the front page of a newspaper!



♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Beside her wonderful shop , Jennie also has a blog (http://sosorosey.blogspot.com/ ) where you can get to know her and her work better. So, don't hesitate to drop by and say "Hi"!

That's all for today's Featured Artist. Your Comment and Feedback are much appreciated! Next Saturday,
we'll meet Jeanette Lin from Singapore, and her shop. Here's a sneak peak at these amazing felt food and toys that you can make using pattern/tutorials from her shop! Yum!

No! Don't eat these jewelry!

So, what is the better way to let other know that you are a super sweet gal than wearing your favorite dessert as a necklace/earring/ring/bracelet?

Wednesday's "Hidden Gem": Meatbagz

How often do you go grocery shopping? At least once a week, right? Today, we'll meet Mackenzie and Kate of Meatbagz, my favorite shop for reusable shopping bags (screen printed). These bags "are ready for anything. Pack them, store them, crush them, and manhandle them everyday and they'll still be ready for more! Everybody deserves nice Meatbagz, so join the reusable revolution and display your Meatbagz proudly". Ready for a fun ride with our two featured artists today?























Here's our pocket interview with Mackenzie and Kate of Meatbagz.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Q: Describe yourself in 5 words.

A: I'd describe the two of us as quirky, goofy, fun, moms, and friends.

Q: What goodies do you offer in your shop?
A: We offer a variety of handy bagz and totes (as well as the occasional piece of meatbagz related wall art) with a wicked sense of humor. All are screen printed by hand with our original designs.

Q: How was your shop started?
A: Our shop started over tea one night...we've been friends since high school, and generally when we get together things start to get a little goofy. We were discussing how much we hated using plastic bags but also hated the boring plain canvas totes-or, even worse-being advertisements for big box grocery stores-and we decided we needed to make some fun market totes to bring home the meat in! one thing led to another and meatbagz was born!

Q: What are some unique things about your shop?
A: I'd say the most unique thing about the shop is our sense of humor. We only put designs up that make us laugh, and we hope they brighten other peoples' days too!

Q: What or who inspires you?
A: We inspire each other. We get together every week or so and while our kids are having a playdate (we have three 2 year olds and two 5 year olds, put together) we have meatbagz meetings. We make a pot of tea and sometimes just start cracking each other up, and sometimes we're inspired by a new bag we're trying out and the bag leads us to the design it needs! Generally, though, if we both think an idea is funny it's going to end up somewhere in the shop.






















Q: What is the item in your shop you enjoyed making the most and why?

Hmmm, we can only pick one? I guess at the moment it's our 100% recycled cotton market totes. They are absolutely delicious with their double handles and we love the fact that they're made with fair labor/wages. We were excited to find those within our budget.

Q: Your additional notes to my lovely blog's readers
A: We're trying to change the world, a few meatbagz at a time! If you check out our shop and like anything you see, please mention "Hidden Gem" in the notes to seller and we'll refund your shipping!


♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
What a wonderful interview! Aren't you glad we got to know these talented artists a little bit better? Why don't you drop by to say "Hi" and make their day with a few encouraging words. Their lovely shop is here.

That's all for today's Hidden Gem. Our new artist and I would love to hear from YOU, so feel free to share your comments and ideas. Do you have a favorite Etsy Artist? Why not suggesting him/her to be featured on this blog? Just let me know!

Next Wednesday, we'll meet Angelina Fong of angelinafongdesigns. If you love contemporary art and Home accessories (pillows, acrylic paintings, etc.), you know you don't want to miss this interview!
