Random food pictures
I just feel like sharing some pictures of random stuff I've eaten lately.
I'm at my parents' right now and the other day my mom taught me how to make this dish. Fried tofu with meat fillings.
Mom's cooking: fried meat with rice and vegetables. I didn't like broccoli when I was younger but now I love it.
Robert's three colored pasta with tomatosauce and parmesan. Yummy!
Mini tiramisu ice cream and cappucino. I'm not a big fan of ice cream but this tasted really good. I couldn't finish the whole thing though...
A small store bought lingonberry tart. I got it because it looked so cute.
Tiny cake with chocolate filling.
Speaking of food and pictures, I thought this Fast Food: Ads vs. Reality was sort of fun (and true!).

To keep or not to keep
I'm in the middle of cleaning and sorting through the stuff in my apartment in order to get rid of the old and useless things that are just laying around, taking up space and collecting dust. It has made me realize that I have a hard time parting with my belongings, especially items in the three following categories:
1. Clothes, shoes & accessories
Everything comes back in fashion some time and I don't have the heart to part with my old stuff if I can still fit in them. Even if I haven't used them for a decade. Argument: I recently found some old pants from sixth grade that I've started wearing again. Yeah, I'm short and I've been 5'2'' as long as I can remember...
2. Old magazines
I've been saving all the magazines that I have subscribed to and I don't even know why. I can see no likelihood of me being so bored that I would want to re-read an old magazine. Still I can't seem to throw them away.
3. Potential crafting material
This is the broadest and most annoying category since pretty much anything can be classified as crafting material. Not only things I buy such as beads, clay, fabric and so on, but also odd bits and ends such as found buttons, broken jewelry pieces, used stamps, scraps of paper... and the list goes on.
My apartment is small and I really need to get rid of some of the old junk i have (to make room for new junk). But I keep imagine myself one day being in great need of this [insert random item] that I didn't keep, and then I'll have to regret my actions forever.
How about you? Have you ever given or thrown something away and later wish you had kept it?

Cornyness stuff
Here are some small raspberries I've made out of Fimo clay. They will be transformed into 20 pairs of Raspberry earrings and will be sent to Shana Logic (former PixelgirlShop) along with 41 other Cornyness items. Yay!
Oh, and I've updated Cornyness Shop so now there are bangles for sale!

Let's make a bracelet!
I've made three different beaded bangles using some seed beads, wire and a silvercolored bangle. A tutorial on how to make one is available in the new Tutorials section.
If you want one but don't feel like making one yourself, then keep an eye on Cornyness Shop. These will appear in the shop sometime in the very near future and will be sold in very limited quantities.
Hooray for making stuff!
