The weather totally sucks!!!! Really, when are we going to see grass?? When will the sun come out?? When will it be at least zero degrees so that the snow will start finally melting away?? What is wrong with Southern Ontario?? Anyways, I'm feeling so depressed and restless and lazy and not feeling like doing anything coz of the weather, its so freezing cold too!! And the heating system at school decided to break down..ugh! At least we got home earlier than usual. So i did what anyone would like to see when there is too much snow and cold..i did some of my favourite summer images list consisting of the above photos of butterflies, the ocean, sand, daisies, watermelon, rainforest, lazing at the pool, yogen fruz icecream etc..

small value village haul

I found this amazing stain glass triangle necklace charm when i went thrifting yesterday after school. Wow, i couldn't believe it!! Coz this is also being sold at etsy.com. Mine was only 99cents. I really hit the jackpot this time around. I also found this bohemian skirt..
My fairydoll i got a while ago, she hangs on the back of my door and i love how her wings sparkle.
Had an Oscar party on Sunday with friends..here's all the food that i made during the ceremonies:
Appetizers: Greek salad, boccacini, marinated button mushrooms. H'or Doevres: egg dijon and cream cheese cucumber finger sandwiches with various olives. Dessert: milk chocolate enrobed profiteroles. Snackies: Lay's wavy milk chocolate chips (OMG, these are soo yummy!!), Mmm Mix consisting of dried fruits and cashews, Pizza veggie chips, beer nuts, Lindt bonbons, Vegan Nana Banana cookie bars. After midnight: Cheese platter consisting of 2 sorts of grapes, ritz crackers, Norway Jalsberg smoked cheese + babybel served with iced cranberry pomegranate tea. We all thought the award show was boring, Stew loved Lady Ga-Gas outfit with red kitchen rubber gloves, and were surprised that "Birdman" won.

my dosha is pitta

I saw this amazing Jim Morrison Venice Beach 1966 necklace on etsy.com and I'm going to try to re-create it myself using pony beads and making it simpler by beading through those stretchy cords you can get at the dollar tree.
You can do a test to find out which Dosha are you..i am definitely a Pitta! Here is the link to the test..naturesformulary.com
And whichever you are, you can make food that helps you..i had no idea what Pitta Dosha was until this groovy girl put a recipe for it on her youtube and you can see what it looks like..here's the link to that..Kitcheri recipe
I made this on Sunday and there's enough to last a whole week and its soo delicious!!!! especially the taste of fennel seeds..mmm! Even my mom is hooked on it. It really makes my stomach feel better because I have upset stomach issues a lot so this really helps.
These are the three energies..Pitta is fire + water.

This is an elephant drawing i did, i heart elephants and i love to draw them a lot!
I went thrifting over the weekend and i got mostly stuff for my b-day and a groovy thumb ring which has triangles around it and when the light hits it, it makes a kaleidoscope-like effect, a silver daisy ring with attached baby daisy, and a white porcelain elephant with its trunk raised and it has gold tusks, so pretty! Valentine's Day was good, didn't go out coz of the cold and snowy weather so i made my usually Ole Mole Mexican chocolate chicken with rice and it was so yummy!! This is what i always cook on Valentine's. I got a pretty unicorn necklace from a friend, Laura Secord mint chocolate bars, and from my mom, an Elizabeth Arden Green Tea perfume set. This is my fav. perfume scent ever!! We watched "Chocolat", such a cute film! I don't know what else to say other then its still frigidly cold here, thankfully i don't have to freeze at the bus stop to get to school, i get a drive there from my friend Maria, she is the bestest friend!! Classes are boring me lately, i don't have much motivation for anything, ummm..i just want it to be spring already! Hope you all are doing groovy!

(image via: pinterest). The snow is finally melting today..yay! Watched the Grammies..i forgot to mention that..umm..yeah it was really boring!! AC/DC was the best one of the night. I did like ELO's performance of Mr. Blue Sky. And i didn't understand why Sia sang to the wall??LOL.
