So I just figure out what painting my incoming Rosary Solennel skirt is from!!

(not my photo, I just found it on google)

Is from this painting by Flemish Baroque painter Peter Paul Ruben of his wife and he called The Honeysuckle Bower.



The just cut out the painter and added some roses. I knew that painting looks familiar but with the artist cut out I didn't realize which one it was. I had to scour my old Art History books to find it.

Glad I did though, but the only way to see it in person is to travel to Munich. Someday maybe?

I am so excited! I won the bid for a JetJ Rosery Solennel Skirt and a cute Metamorphose Old Rose Pinafore in black.

Also bought a Chess Story Lucky Pack and a Kraz Lanrete Blouse in black. (Along with some misc tights/a shirt)

I hope I get them before April! I'm just so excited to wear it all!!!!!

Got a gift of Balloons today!

I am Pro-Choice

Not on a moral stance, but on a feminist stance.  There are 157.2 Million woman in the USA. More woman than men, yet by choosing Pro-life, we let a bunch of old white men tell us what we can and cannot do.  I hope that woman will make the virtuous choice and do not choose to abort, but the important part is they have the freedom to choose.   

Woman fought so hard for our freedom to choose. We get to choose who we vote for, we get to choose to go to collage, we get to choose to start a business, run for the government.  We can do anything and we are so lucky.  

If you are on the fence, take a look at history and the second class citizen status woman had.  We have come a long way, so pat yourself on the back and keep reaching for the stars!

So I just played the new Nancy Drew Game :Tomb of the Lost Queen. Beware of some Spoilers.

First of all, I was excited to have an Egyptian themes Drew game. I just knew there were to be secret rooms galore!  My sister and I were always sticklers for secret rooms and trick doors.  If a ND game didn't have enough we would rate it pretty low.  Of course this is just my preference, but I love a large platform to explore.  

So Nancy's on a archaeological dig for an recently discovered Egyptian Tomb.  Of course something goes wrong and Nancy ends up having to solve a mystery.  I was kind of happy to have so many twist with the back story of the characters.  It really kept the game fresh and exciting.  Also, I didn't mind the reading the books on Egypt and the History of different queens.  Some of the books you have to go through in these games can be excruciatingly boring, but not Tomb of the Lost Queen. 

The puzzles were creative enough, but not that hard. I still don't know if it's because I grew up and have gotten smarter or they've been dumbing them down.  I hope I'm just smarter.  That would at least make me feel better.  

SPOILERS:
You only have Bess to talk to and that Professor Hotchkiss again who never remembers your name?  No Ned, which made me sad.  One of my favorite things about the old games was calling your friends for hits.  I sorta think the hints hotline is useless. 

You get to decipher hieroglyphics throughout the game.  Part of them can be translated with your book (just clicking on your book and then clicking on the hieroglyphics) the other times you have to solve them yourself by trying to break the code.  Once you've done a few, it gets easier since the code is the same for all of them.  

All in all, I love this game and would recommend it to anybody interested in getting into the ND games.
