Tea Time

Tagged , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Today’s post is ever so fitting because exactly 3 weeks from today we will be picking Troy up from the airport, and exposing him to iced tea. Being that Troy is a Brit, the very idea of cold tea for him is a bit sacrilegious, but he loves us enough to agree to at least try it before deciding it is officially blasphemous.

Modular Victorian

Tagged , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Earlier this month, we were blogging for the SL Living Expo and due to some sketchy time management issues on our end, we were unable to share with you this phenomenal MODit building kit from The Looking Glass. What you see here is the TLG MODit – Starter COMPLETE SET and now that the event has ended it can be found at the main store so head on that way to get yours.

Finished Starter Houses –
Each set has a finished starter house that you can purchase separately or get as part of the Complete Set. Set 1 has the Victorian Estate and Set 2 has the Parisian Row Home. These are finished buildings created using only the pieces and textures from those sets. They are both large, six room houses with numerous fireplaces and were created to demonstrate all aspects of what these sets have to offer. You can use them as they are, use them as a starting point for your own structure or just as reference to see how to put together the parts.

Extras Pack –
Sold separately and included in the Complete Set. This is a collection of detail items you might wish to add to your structure. It includes gutters, shutters, fireplace setups, fire escapes, air conditioning units, TV antennas, mailboxes, planter boxes, wood stoves, solar panels and more! The fire escapes are walkable without the need for any scripting and the fires are animated with particle sparks and sounds included.

Each set contains basic textures and pieces that are in both sets as well as textures and pieces that are unique to that set alone. Both sets come with the same scripts.

The Complete Set contains all textures and pieces from both sets as well as the pieces in the Extras Pack.

Included Scripts in both sets: 13
Set 1 Total Textures: 219
Set 2 Total Textures: 225
Complete Set Total Textures: 267
Set 1 Total Pieces and Templates: 149
Set 2 Total Pieces and Templates: 112
Complete Set Total Pieces: 245

Old Made Modern

Tagged , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

When we rezzed the Noveny – Modern Concrete House, Troy’s first response was ” This reminds me of one of those old school Linden Homes, only way nicer “. Have to admit, it is quite true. The old original Linden Homes attempted to offer a modern style home only they dropped the ball and they ended up being rather bland generic boxes. They have stepped up the game with these new Linden Homes tho, so they have redeemed themselves on that.

We will fully admit, that we are torn when it comes to modern homes. We love the design and layouts that tend to be quite clean lined, we wobble on the clean appearance. The standard white walls feel quite stark to us, but we know many people who prefer just that aesthetic.

Kahakai

Kahakai [prononounced kah-hah-kahy (rhymes with “high”)] means by the shore or beach. HISA could not have named this gorgeous home any better, for the wonderful tropical beachy vibes it gives. With large windows and glass doors, this home has views for days that you just can not miss ! There is even a built in Koi pond on the roof !

Who Let The Donks Out

Tagged , , , , , , Leave a comment

Everyone is always asking about the dogs, but I think the real question is who let the donk’s out, especially the feisty ones ! It may still be too early in February for Spring to be sprung, but these donks are on the hunt for some fresh greenery wherever they can find it.

If you find yourself in search of the perfect not quite spring home and your own drove of donks Hisa and Jian have you covered !

Just Swingin

Tagged , , , , , , Leave a comment

It seems so hard to believe that it has been nearly 7 years since we became friends with one Savannah Rain. Our lives have done a heck of alot of roller coaster rides since then, and we may not have ended up as close as we started, but the love is still there, and the memories are still just as strong.

[2016/03/21 15:39] ѕquιѕh (nakari.tolsen): YaY

Am not sure why, but while setting up this scene we kept hearing John Anderson – Swingin’ and thinking of Sav. Still ♥ you, even if you still need a gesture to do it on your mac !

The House That Jack Built

Tagged , , , , , , , Leave a comment

” This is the farmer sowing his corn, That kept the cock that crowed in the morn, That woke the priest all shaven and shorn, That married the man all tattered and torn, That kissed the maiden all forlorn, That milked the cow with the crumpled horn, That tossed the dog that worried the cat, That killed the rat that ate the malt, That lay in the house that Jack built. ”

– The Book of Books for Children, printed in London in 1755.

We were so overjoyed to see the latest release from Jian for Uber of Jack Russel Terriers ! Our family is rather fond of Irish Jacks, which are bred to have shorter legs.

Maddie and Henry belong to our grandmother.

This is 17 pound Maddie keeping the 450+ pound bear out of the yard !

The Harrison House is a cottage-style home with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The ultimate family floor plan has both a formal living room and a casual family room. The master bedroom has its own bathroom and the sunroom steps onto a large two-level porch. Available now at Uber for 20% off:

Modern Day Vikings

Tagged , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

As any blogger will tell you, it is a rare day when a photo comes together exactly as you had intended from start to finish. Such is the case with today’s photo. It all started with this Whisky Firepit from GOOSE which is at Cosmopolitan. Even tho the kegs are whiskey and not mead, I was still drawn back to our former gorean and medieval roleplay days, which made me snatch up the Simply Shelby – Medieval Weapon Rack Set, and was quickly followed by The Green Door – Secret Cave.

It is rare that we have trouble setting a scene once we have a clear vision in our heads but for some reason this one took more time than the usual. The modern whiskey decor was mixing up the rest of my vision. Then Troy chimed in with the idea that perhaps it was a troop of lazy re-enactors who were only in it for the fun of dressing up like vikings and getting drunk so they were not as fussed about authenticity and just got whiskey barrels instead ! Problem solved !
