Look, I made this!

Dear team,

Good afternoon! I made you all a video! What do you think of my shirt? 

Love, Nancy

That's not a moon!

Hey team! I figured the best way to kick off the blog would be to post this totally kick awesome Q&A that I had the privilege of doing with the wonderful Laura Laing from Math for Grownups. Laura does posts on practical math that people actually use in their day to day lives. Most of us don't really use the bizarre equations we had to play with in school, but being able to add fractions in your head can really be a leg up in a lot of situations. Unfortunately, I have to do all kinds of math on the regular to make the fancy things I love to play with, so give the post a read and let me know what you think!

In terms of crafty news, I definitely made myself a new shirt to wear to work this evening. I realized the other day that I've been rotating between the same couple outfits at the restaurant and that's just not ok when one claims to make clothes. So I pulled out a couple yards of discount fabric that I bought literally last year (because we all know I can't resist the pull of anything paisley and on sale) and I made kind of a girlish twist on the classic poet shirt. My version is off the shoulder on both sides and has giant billowy sleeves that will most certainly get in the way of just about everything. I might love it just a little bit. I'll get somebody to take pictures during my next shift and get them up here so you can all see it.

That's all for tonight, Pretty Roommate and I are going to watch Snatch and order a pizza. We've got being grownups on lock. At the behest of a friend I'm going to try and have regular video posts as well, so we'll have that to look forward to. Until next time!
