Troll 2 party menu a big hit

The 1990 Troll 2 movie rates a ZERO percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, so what more reason would we need than that to throw a Troll 2 party? Here are photos of some of the glorious food that we devoured at the party ...

Nilbog cupcakes

Nilbog Water ingredients are: White Grape Juice, 7-Up and Green Food Colouring

Green Jell-O popcorn balls

Green noodles

Green Deviled Eggs and Pea Soup

It's all in the presentation folks!

Spinach Lasagna Roll Ups

For any Troll 2 enthusiasts out there, we also had Double Decker Bologna sandwiches in paper bags as well. Yum!

We also watched the Best Worst Movie documentary made by the child actor who was in Troll 2. It was fascinating, touching and sad. This documentary rates 95 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.

What do you get when you cross The Scream with Finn the Human?

Happy All Saint's Eve everyone!

The Scream costume I made for my son, David a couple years ago ~
best (and cheapest) costume ever!

Finn the Human pumpkin I carved this morning

Finn tries on The Scream for size!

Steampunk Jewellery, Painted Ties and Airship Pirate Plushies foot the bill

Over the past year, I have had the privilege of acting as a creative consultant with a theatre arts collective called Graffiti Mix that my son Zach and his friend Brittni dreamed up in 2011. Recently, Graffiti Mix presented its first one act play production featuring 4 plays that were written and directed by Zach, Brittni and their friend Nicole. To fund this venture, we decided to use some of our artistic skills to create things (mostly recycled or reused materials) and sell them. Here are a few samples:

A sampling of the Steampunk Jewellery we created ...
The 2nd necklace on the left is the only one out of this bunch that hasn't sold yet.

Buzz ~ one of our Airship Pirate Plushies. Each time one sells, it's sad to see them go.
(Each plushy comes with his/her own biography)

"The Scream" hand-painted tie that started it all.

Don't you just love a wedding?

Our son recently got married. I was asked to do some of the creative stuff such as flowers and centrepieces and wedding cake. I thoroughly enjoyed my task and was pretty happy with the results.

the new Mr & Mrs

It was raining on the day of the wedding, so photos were taken at the local conservatory. This random guy asked to have his photo taken with the bride ~ he was on a scavenger hunt, and was very happy to find a bride.

 

 

homemade wedding cake ~ yum!
