Ladies and gentlemen, my latest addiction: Inspiration boards on color, style or event type. Wishlists that can span as many different sites and shops as you want. Yummy food recipes with delicious pictures. Funny things. Cute things. Pinterest has and is all of this,...
Fun Camera News!
So, this morning I won an auction on Ebay for a Nikon D5000 camera. !!!! I've worked with Nikon DSLRs before (most particularly when I was a photography intern at a newspaper way back when) but have never myself owned one. I've been getting by with my Nikon Coolpix...
Weekend Recap: Sister Time!
I had to drop my sister off at Lackland AFB yesterday afternoon, which we were both sad about. The weekend was a ton of fun! We ate tons of good food around Austin, went to karaoke, went thirft/boutique shopping on South Congress, played with doggies (mine, and a...
Friday Favorites: Sister Time!
My lil' sis is coming to visit this weekend! She's been a mere 2 hours away since August, but since her life has been signed over to the USAF, her free time has generally not been her own, and so I've only seen her twice here in Texas. But this weekend she has a 3-day...
Thought for Thursday: Split Personalities?

New Year, New Name, New Goals
As you may have noticed, there's been a bit of an overhaul here at Dragonflight. For one thing, it's now Dragonflight Dreams, instead of Dragonflight Apparel. Since this blog has really grown to be about more than just my screenprinting adventures, I thought a name...
Survey Meme
Hi! I'm back in Texas after surviving the frozen northlands. I'll do a holiday round-up post tomorrow or the next day, because it was a good trip and there were a few epic gifts that need to be celebrated. But since I'm still playing catch-up on work, I'm just doing a...
