The wings look gorgeous!!!
And wow!!! You got the entire Paradise Estate building!!! Furniture won't be hard to find, & will be easy to post, but you got really lucky finding the whole building!!! I display mine in two halves, with the patio, living room, & kitchen on one shelf, & the rest on another. I saw another person display theirs like that & thought it was a great idea.
Congrats on getting the stuff!!!

Oh Artie, teething is not fun!!! Not for the baby, nor the parents xxx
Horizon I've neglected my collection logs of late. Need to catch up. The piccies are there but the log of my collection is a thing I have to do. Congrats on working on yours!!!
BC well done on the cleaning!!!
Beth grrr at your work interrupting your family time xxx
I did the dishes AND gave the whole sink area (draining rack, sink, & surrounding surface) a good scrub down!!! It's almost like I have a new draining area!!! It's really that clean now!!!
Made two lots of dough: one for bread, one for pizza. Made the bread first, so it could rise while I worked on the pizza base & sauce, & sorted the veggies. Then the pizza dough rose while I baked the bread, then I portioned out the pizza dough, heated the veggies, rolled out the first bit, cooked it up, pulled out my pre-grated cheeses, & assembled the pizza. Then I ate it!!! I pulled too many veggies to fit in the tray for heating, so half of them went in a container for the fridge.
After all that & the associated dishes from that were draining, it was time to head out for coffee, cakes, & seeing a few pals. One pal, who's getting on & it's becoming obvious (limping a little, sometimes you don't quite understand him, etc) told me he & his wife enjoyed the cake I gave them last time I saw him. She's still not well enough to come out. I hope she recovers soon; I miss her.
Then I got some more knitting done, & had a long crashout.
Then came today. So beautiful, 21C & the sun is out. Sorted the bed to summer fashion (when I sleep on top of the duvet but under some light blankets). Put the plastic & metal recycling out. Waited for a parcel, then checked its tracking. It's in England, so it'll take a couple more days to reach me. After binfolks came, took Bakana for a walk. Went along the long coastal path & it was beautiful. So many flowers, & I saw a bee or two, a load of Cabbage Whites, & two Red Admirals, among the wildlife!!! Got quite sweaty & though I took a water bottle, finished it before the walk was done. Got home & changed my tshirt for a nightshirt. I have nothing on Wednesday so I cleared the machine as Bakana is due a bath, & she'll get one then. Only a little knitting.
I've been playing a dragon game but I think I'll have to give it up soon, which is a shame but cost of living is hitting. In fact, I might have to delete it now. I can no longer afford to play it, & like most of that type of game, it's very pay to win...

I always seem to end up tired, hungry, & sore after a walk!!!
Also I'm waiting for a parcel, & because I'm up here, it's delayed.
Oh & the bank refused a Paypal payment, which means I can't use Paypal until I refill the balance manually

First summery day of the year, so I filled a water bottle, grabbed Bakana & my phone, & took a walk along the coast paths. I even saw red admirals!!! They're beautiful butterflies

Oh wow she is gorgeous!!! I love her so much!!!
Yep there's a good few patterns for G4 Ponies, & PKW has one for Takaras, but I never found any for G1s, hence making my own. Mine took a week of painstaking trial, error, frogging & redoing, measuring, & other bits to get done, & the second one took the same time, but only because 1/ she needed wings which I had to add, & 2/ her hair was tinsel yarn, very sparkly but working with it was a pain.
But I'm happy with the results.
And as a fellow crocheter, I congratulate you on your hard work, which is what making this looks like it was, even with the pattern to guide you!!!
One other thing: your eyes look amazing!!! Did you embroider them??? They look embroidered, & that in itself is a time-consuming process. I'm not a safety eye fan, but boy does the embroidery take time to do!!! It does result in a safer, more secure eye though. Same with symbols where needed.

More done!!! I have FINISHED the second glove, but not the hat yet. Doing more work on two other scarves to get them out of the way & done; one of those is almost finished!!!
I MISSED the aurora viewings last night, apparently everybody in the northern hemisphere including UK, northern Europe, northern USA, Canada, etc could see it & it was all over every Discord server!!!
I made the noisy coffee & it was good fun again. I had a go at making veggie nuggets & they turned out well. The mix was so sticky but well worth the hassle!!! With all the veg & the chickpeas & the mash, the nuggets were effectively a full meal!!! Nine of them had me utterly stuffed full!!! So the rest are in portions of six, with the last of them spicy (chilli powder added to the mix & chilli flakes to the breadcrumbs).
Today I need to do dishes & make bread & pizza... Going to be fun...

Sleep has been all over the place, AGAIN!!! It's annoying & makes me late for things/ miss things.
At least I got the card out on Monday, & some packages arriving on Tuesday meant I made coffee on Tuesday. After coffee I went into town for a few bits. Town was up & down. Up in the sense of I found the PERFECT size of loaf tin!!! Down in the sense of one of my fave shops being shut until Saturday. Up in the sense of the tasty cheesecake I ate!!! Down in the sense of the freezer at Tesco. Up in the sense of the lift I got home!!!
Got some needed stuff & some fun stuff & had a relatively good day.
And I'm on the knitting & crochet. I'm nearly done a hat, so sorting the yarn to get it finished & still make the second fingerless glove. I think I've done it just about, & have a couple more integrations to do before starting its scarf. Glove started on, & so far it looks matching...
BC, Frostbite, ridiculous postage costs are the bane of everybody's life!!!

I wanted to check out frozen veg & get my fave frozen veggieburgers from Tesco. Some hope: the vegetable & vegetarian freezer was broken until the end of the week!!!. So I got some chilled veggieburgers instead & missed out on frozen veggies!!!

I think the Furbobs count. I want them too!
I'd love toys of the cartoon characters like Knight Shade, the witches, Tirac, the bees (I would kill for a Sting toy!), etc. Definitely a missed opportunity there.
DEFFO Furbobs!!! I think this says enough about how much I want Knightshade!!! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginTirac would have been awesome!!!! Witch dolls too
