Hello, blog readers (if there are any):
I was searching for a site that I remember liking, and I can't find it. It was planetyumthing.net, and I think it may have been taken down.
The site was about doing-it-yourself (DIY) and crafty things that I thought were interesting. I was informed of the site when I got a book, Planet Yumthing DIY. It was by Ela Jaynes and Darren Greenblatt.
Ela and Darren, if you're out there and are obsessively Googling your own names for fun, please put your site back up! I miss the cool crafty ideas and the updates about neat stuff to make yourself. Thanks!
And for those of you who are curious about the cool crafty stuff I've been going on about, here are some ideas, courtesy of Planet Yumthing DIY (published by Bantam Books, an imprint of Random House Books):
- Cut off the bottom of an oversized rock concert tee just below the arms. Roll over the upper edge, sew it down, and make yourself a drawstring to thread through. Cut some fringe at the bottom if you like. There you have it - a rock and roll SKIRT!
- Mix 1 cup fresh strawberries (cut up, leaves removed), 1 tbsp water, 2 tbsp cornstarch, and 2 tbsp milk. Mash the ingredients into a paste and apply to your face for an awesome face mask. Relax in the bathtub for 20 minutes and rinse off.
- Cut hot dogs into thirds, coat them with barbecue sauce, and place on a (nonstick-sprayed) baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. When they're done, place the pieces of hot dog on wooden skewers with pineapple chunks. Serve them with mustard to a lot of friends.
Remember, Ela and Darren, if you're there, put up your site, please!
Thanks so much.
