Bar Trivia

Stella came to book club again, but now that we aren't an official library program, we've gone rogue! We chose Wasserhund (which Stella has been to before) and the night and time we chose happen to be when they do bar trivia!


We actually started off pretty strong... we were in first place after the halftime question! But then we lost it all.

Fun facts we learned: Barbara Streisand has had a top 200 Billboard hit every decade for the last six decades. The "SOS" in the dish soap stands for Save Our Saucepans. Coca-Cola introduced their "I'd like to teach the world to sing" campaign in 1971 during Superbowl VI. Michael Douglas is 25 years older (to the day) than Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Answer to the trivia question from the Craftster post: KFC was founded during the Great Depression!

Mask Test

Stella helped me test out a craft foam mask for a costume program we're putting together for the public library. I think it might be a little big for her...


But darn if she doesn't look fabulous!

This little guy was on the car this morning as Stella and I headed out to work!

Baltimore Comic-Con

As a costume contest winner from last year, I got a free pass to Baltimore Comic-Con this year! And Fabian Nicieza (one of the original creators of Deadpool) was there, so obviously I had to go. Stella and I took the day (my birthday!) off work, drove up to see my friend Beth, and then the three of us went to Baltimore.

Welcome!

This is Piggy, the 3-legged super dog! This table was
selling comics about Piggy. Beth bought some while I
petted the pupper.

Beth and I only collect Funko Pop figures of
characters we've cosplayed. I thought I'd never find
Ramona Flowers!

Legions of Lego people and creatures! Stella is a giant compared to them!
