I went to lunch with my team today, and we stopped by the booth that was offering photos with Frosty the Snowman. The photographer, apparently smitten with me, said he needed to get photos of me with Frosty, then he'd take the team photos. So there I was, standing on a big red velvet arm chair, one pointy-booted foot up on the arm, hands on hips, looking as if I had just conquered the poor guy in the Frosty costume. It was very fun. The photographer told me to stay there, and arranged the rest of the team around me. Yay, photos!

We waited around, and picked up our CD of the photos. I cart it back to my desk, put it in the computer, and ... discover that those are not our team photos. They are photos of some guy with a small child and Frosty. Woe! We are denied our photos!

Tonight, we put up the Christmas tree. I sense hot cocoa in my future.

Thanks to everyone who suggested phrases to embroider on gloves! I think I'm going to go with Cup ♥ Cake, Goth Cake, and maybe Love Cake. (Yes, I have pairs of gloves to do all of those. I just need to dig them out, and perhaps see how well one of the pairs does in a pot of pink RIT.)

Another crafty/D.I.Y. project I'm contemplating is taking a piece of ruffled pink fabric (seriously, it's stretchy nylon covered in rows and rows of ruffles), cutting a large-ish heart out of it, and appliqueing that onto a skirt. I just don't know how well it would work. I'd fuse some interfacing onto it, but I don't know if that's possible with this sort of nylon knit. Time for experimenting, I guess.

Oh good, I'm glad you are using cup <3 cake. Too cute to pass up. I also thought of perk goth, but it lacks a certain 'y'

I wouldn't recommend ironing the nylon unless you do so with your iron's lowest heat setting (which may not be enough heat to properly adhere fusible interfacing)... it tends to have a very low "melting" point. You'll likely be better off hand-basting it to another liner fabric with more body instead.

Awww. I wanted see the frosty pics.Whoever got your photos is probably going to try to figure out what character you are.
Are you going to show us the tree when you're done?

Woe, technology.

Have you tried peppermint tea yet? Celestial Seasonings makes a rather fine peppermint, which is lovely when heavily sweetened.
