Pretzels by Proxy

Man it's just popping up pretzels out there!  Ya'll know how bad I am at administration.  So please don't hold it against me that I don't have an official "links" section on my blog.  This is something I'd like to develop, but I know in my heart I would never maintain it.  So why even go there?  But the least I can do is point out some cool people and places that I'm currently visiting...

Out of the blue, I got a pretzel picture from Jenny Lee.  What a sweetie to think of me!  It's hard to describe the pretzel she sent, so I went back and found the photo in order to share!  Look at this long drapey tassel adorned menu.  And even stranger: German chocolate cake on offer!!

You all know that iLove iHanna, but the latest news is she recently posted some Swedish twisty goodness complete with (and I'm NOT KIDDING)...pretzel carpet.  I've already checked my local carpet supplier and he seemed scared of me.  I guess I have to move to Sweden!  Speaking of Swedish pretzels, look at the RAK in the top photo that was tucked into my envelope of treats when I ordered Hanna's new Zine!  Her zine, like everything she does was so cool. She just spoiled me rotten with goodies.    

Anne over at Film and Thread is sewing up a storm as always.  We met through a swap that Hanna hosted, and I'm so in love with her skillz!  She makes me want to sleep with my sewing machine.

Another cool blog I've been enjoying is Lixie Knits It.  Now folks, you all know what a catastrophe I am with long sharpened needles, but I just love the way this girl writes. It makes me miss England! Just especially for Lixie, here is the link to my knitting caper in Germany. 

My new friend DJ visits and is so generous with her comments.  It looks like she's been busy in her garden! She such a nice gal, I wish she'd come straighten my weedy mess out!  And I just like our names.  "DJ and TJ."  Makes me want to go skip rope.

And last but not least, two German bloggers.  Tally has this cool site that always makes me want to explore the northern part of the country.  She writes most of her posts in German and then recaps them in English.  (So cool.  Maybe I should recap my English posts in German?? I could horrify you all with my grammar but it might be fun!) 

Skytimes is the other German site that's going to have me visiting over the next weeks. It's always exciting to find a new blog and go backwards through the posts, getting to know them and their artwork and their story.

Have fun and most importantly, keep on creating!! xoxo tj

I'm having so much fun seeing all the blogs you linked to. I can't believe you included me in that group of talented women!

Aloha! Thrilled to find my blog-link here. Would love to make more art, just sometimes grief gets in the way of doing so.

It was great fun checking out the other ladies blogs... So much inspiration and so little time... sigh. Happy crafting everybody!

awww, thank you TJ. Not everything I do is cool, I promise, but almost! ;-)

Manchmal mache ich es ja umgekehrt - und manchmal nur einsprachig. Trau dich einfach, es ist lustig.
Vor allem, wenn ich auf Englisch schreibe (was bei mir allerdings fließend geht) und ich dann stolpernd in meine Muttersprache übersetze.

tschüs
und komm mal in den Norden!
