I generally don't play tag anymore, as I was inundated early on with too many requests to play along when I first started blogging and got a little burnt out on it. BUT...
Sarkilahti of Odette NY tagged me and I couldn't refuse...
What is your current obsession?
What is your weirdest obsession?
I prefer to drink out of white cups or glasses. If possible, I only like to drink out of the same white cup. I'll occasionally rinse it out, but I won't wash it until someone else washes it and then I repeat the process.
What are you wearing today?
Boxers and sometimes pajama bottoms. If I don't have to leave the house I'll stay in my sleepware all day. I like to be comfortable above all else.
What's for dinner?
Slow-cooked beef and pasta. I started it this morning, but I cheated and used a store-bought sauce instead of making my own.
What would you eat for your last meal?
To start, I'd like crab soup dumplings. Then I'd like a bowl of lobster bisque, a plate of perfectly caramelized scallops, and squid the way my mom used to fix it. For dessert I'd like vanilla pudding, a slice of Mississippi Mud Pie, and a piece of Mrs. Boser's Strawberry Rhubarb Pie. All of this would be served with mint sweet tea. (Yes, I'd be a little piggy for my last meal, but at least I'd enjoy it and I wouldn't have to worry about a belly ache in the morning.)
What's the last thing you bought?
A bag of flour from my local bodega.
What are you listening to right now?
What is your favorite ice-cream flavour?
Green Tea or Caramelized Pear with Toasted Pecans.
What do you think of the person who tagged you?
Sarkilahti is a very talented artist and jewelry maker, who takes beautiful pictures and seems really happy.
If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you like it to be?
Near the beach, with a garden, close to the mountains, in or near a small town but close to a big city.
If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
Hawaii. (I don't think I'd want to come back after only an hour though.)
Which language do you want to learn?
I'd like to really learn Latin and not for pretend or to pass a test in school either, but REALLY know Latin.
What's your favorite quote (for now)?
The rising tide raises all boats.
Who do you want to meet right now?
The bodega clerk who will sell me the winning lotto ticket so that I can pay off all my student loans and help support my friends, family, and other struggling artists. (But first, let me put some more clothes on.)
What's your favorite colour?
I like a lot of different colors. Different shades of green, crimson reds, and rich blacks.
What is your favorite piece of clothing in your own wardrobe?
My black hoodie with a striped lining.
What is your dream job?
To make things and not have to worry about bills.
What's your favorite magazine?
If you had £100 now, what would you spend it on?
I don't really know how much money that is. If it could be on any, probably a couple of Anne Choi beads.
Favorite designer?
Uhmmm, I have a lot of different favorite designers. One of my favorite jewelry designers is Nina Bagley.
Do you admire any one's style?
Tilda Swinton. She's an avant garde fashion icon who could wear anything and make it look couture.
Describe your personal style?
At home, comfort rules. In public, anything that'll make me look good, but not outrageous.
What are you going to do after this?
Write project instructions and continue to send out emails. Maybe design some jewelry and finish some collages if I'm lucky.
What are your favorite movies?
What's your favorite fruit?
Oranges or pears.
What inspires you?
Seeing things and looking at the world around me, other artists, good books, songs that make you want to cry, prayer, and long walks.
What's your favorite work of art?
The rules:
1. Respond and rework; answer the question on your blog, replace one question that you dislike with a question of your own invention.
2. Tag eight other people.

Even with the additions of "wicked plants" to the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and all the extra emphasis on the existing sinister shrubs, poisonous prickles, and menacing members of the flora kingdom, it seems as though the bunnies are doing just fine.
College is one of my favorite mediums. The idea of taking two or more things of different origins and combining them into a cohesive hybrid is fascinating to me. I think that's why I'm drawn to the work of
