Ice Ice Baybee!

whitewitch2


What better mean girl to showcase in hot sticky oppressive July than an Ice Queen? And OMG, is Jadis a mean one! Terrorizing children and little furry woodland creatures and crucifying tricking the beautiful kitty into sacrificing himself to save a snot-nosed brat. (Well, it was his own damned fault! Cats are supposed to be the minion, not the opposition!) Yup, she's our kind of girl alright!

I was inspired by this White Witch's realm, and wanted to reflect it in all its icy glory in the yarn.

Hoar Frost total


Our nom for this month is an amazing cotton candy-flavored rock candy suspended on a stick. I wish I could say that I made it, but I don't have that kind of time. Do you have any ideas just how long it takes to develop that amount of candy? Hell no, I am way too impatient to wait around watching crystals grow. Instead, I ordered them from Candy Crate . I'd definitely betray every single one of you for a Sweetie from there!

Also included were a customized tape measure which featured our very own little Meanie Monster Girl and a "Queen of Everything She Sees" stitch marker holder/row marker "made" by yours truly (actually more like assembled by yours truly).

Ice is Nice!

So, anyone dare to hazard a guess on who will be Ms. September?

Quick! Dial Yarn One One

Because it's like.......... mid-July and I don't have any damn yarn.

So, in order to head off 'Famous Indie Dyer Found Face Down in Own Dye Pots", can one of you hoars shoot me the phone number for LaLand Police Department so they can stop by and do a wellness check?

I have it on good authority, though, that shipments will be going out the first of next week. Thus, back outside for mailbox duty and I'm heading out to Disneyland Paris Tuesday and I'll be back Saturday, hopefully with some yarn waiting on me.

Curiouser & Curiouser

So, it looks as though we have a mystery member in our midst. I'll 'splain.

You see, Paypal decided to get on the Mean Girl bandwagon. Those members who signed up for the payment option, Paypal omitted their shipping address. So, I was forced to get off my lazy ass and email all the "subscription" members to ask for their shipping address. Everyone responded back except for one. So, the Mean Girl with the alias of J. Doupe, you have been discovered! Please email me: DizzyBlondeStudios@gmail.com. I need your secret identity, the shipping addy to your secret lair, and any other super villainous identities you have, (i.e. your Rav name). I'd hate for your yarn to go astray because I have no address to ship it to! Then I'd end up with two skeins each installment, instead of just one. Whatever would I do with 2 skeins of the same yarn?!?!

Now I'm sure that many of you couldn't give a fig about someone else's yarn going astray. I'd lay money that the only reason you're checking in at all is to see if I've gotten offa my evil plotting ass to announce a winner. Well, you'll be surprised to know that is EXACTLY what I've done. The Cursed Adminion (because her eviltude sometimes outweighs my own, damn her!) has been hard at work.

Now, grudgingly, I have to admit that all your guesses were rather clever....WRONG, but clever nonetheless. In fact, some have given me ideas for future runs of the MGYC! Now I've got themes for the next 10 years! Mwahahahahahaaaaaa!

"Enough with the blather, already!!!" you say?

"Tell us who won and send us our prizey goodness already, sheesh!!!" I hear?

Damn! You're a bunch of impatient hoars, aren't you? Just my type!

Okay, so the winners are:

Mehitabel & Noolie

I'll be sending out your prize packages...well, whenever I feel like it, so, keep yer pantihose on! And if you think that Noolie bitching and creating a ruckus in the Ravelry group helped in her winning, you just may be correct. You just never know! It might behoove you all to be squeaky wheels...then again, it might not.

And I betcha you're all wondering if anyone correctly guessed the theme of this year's MGYC. And my answer to that is...maybe. Did you expect anything else?
