I’ve started designing earrings again! Its very therapeutic! I also decided to have a try at making my first official necklace to match. Tell me what you think. Pictures are from my iPhone so they aren’t the best and it can’t capture the beauty of the crystal but you get the gist of it.
The earrings are made out of sterling silver wiring with 4mm Swarovski Crystal bicones of Clear Crystal & 6mm Swarovski Crystal round Jet Black beads. The bottom of the earring is a Clear Crystal teardrop.
The necklace is made of the same components as above; however, includes a sterling silver chain attached to the top ands and a beautiful spring-ring clasp.
Modeled by my lovely mother, Parveen.

Will be posting more of my previous designs in the next couple of weeks.

I went to the Cheesecake Factory yesterday with my old co-worker, Christina. Had fun catching up with her. I miss those days of having lunch and gossiping. Cheesecake was FAAABULOUS!
So…since the job search isn’t going so great…I’m thinking of new ideas. Perhaps I will try my hand at the online world. I’m thinking maybe gadget/iPhone/Twitter/Facebook, etc. way. Maybe directed at girls that will give them easy guides on how to work the world wide web and gadgets. I don’t know….we’ll see.
In other news, I’m going to be dabbling back into my old hobby of jewelry making. Gonna dust off those jewels. haha! I think I’m going to start cooking more too. Gotta get my mind off of not having a job. Its driving me CRAZY!!!
Ooh also, started going to the gym again. Feel soooooooo much better. I’m a little sore right now but the end result will make me feel fab!!!

Seriously! I’ve become a vampire! I stay up ALL night and sleep in the morning/afternoon. I HATE THIS! I NEED A JOB!!! Well, at least I get to catch up with family/friends in India. I’m technically on their time and I love talking to my sista-from-another-motha’ Ayesha. She cracks me up and I try not laugh at 5 in the morning. I think the two of us should have our own reality show together. We’d make MILLIONS!!! haha!
Today is my Dad’s birthday! Happy Birthday daddy!!! In honor of him, I awoke from the dead at a reasonable hour…after probably sleeping 3 hours. He should feel honored! Anyways, we went to my fave restaurant the Old Port Lobster Shack. He loves Lobster Bisque, so there ya go! It was for him…totally not for me! *wink wink!*
My sister, Rhea, has her FINAL exam today! Whoo-hoo!!! Good luck, sissy! You’ll do great! That aside, I’m just happy she’s comin home for the summer. I miss her soooooooooooo much during the school year!
In other news, I arranged my jewelry collecting and am going to start making earrings again, and maybe necklaces/bracelets this time too. Will keep you posted!!!

Mother’s day was fuuun! We had steaks, mashed potatoes, salad and, for dessert, I made red velvet cupcakes with cheesecake frosting. We had a lot of fun. Talked a lot and played Mario Kart on the Wii….as usual I WON! haha! Love spending time with the family! Every party we have is never boring!
Today, the older gals wanted to go out for dinner and I insisted I come along to see what they talk about when the kiddies are away. Unfortunately, no gossip! We went to Old Port Lobster Shack in Redwood City. DEEEELISH!!! Located here:
Old Port Lobster Shack
851 Veterans Boulevard
Redwood City, CA 94063
I would recommend the New England Clam “Chowdah”, Lobster Bisque, & The Maine Lobster Roll. YUMMMY!!! As usual, I forgot to take pictures. I’m useless!
Tomorrow, I plan to re-organize my jewelry supplies. I’ve gotten the bug again!!! Will take some pictures of some of my designs!
