Drowning!!

Maybe I'm being a tad dramatic, but I seriously feel like I'm fighting to keep my head above water with everything on my plate at the moment. Report cards for my students are due Friday, I have 2 huge papers/projects for my Saturday class due this Saturday and next Saturday, I'm still in the middle of unpacking from our move, dealing with PonyFair and not dealing with other pony projects and instead worrying that I'm not dealing with them (which is a completely other issue). If I step back, it isn't really that bad and thankfully, there is an end in sight, but I've worked myself into a frenzy so now everything seems daunting.

It seems ridiculous that I just had a week off work and yet I feel even more frazzled than before. I guess that's what happens when you don't stop to relax and instead push yourself so it seems like going back to work is actually taking a break.

I'm also a little sad that I have a beautiful room full of shelves and glass cabinets waiting for My Little Ponies, but haven't had the time to even think about unpacking them.

Speaking of ponies, if you haven't sent in your contest entry yet for the MLP Fair Design-A-Pony Contest, time is running out! All entries must be postmarked by April 2nd!!

Drumroll Please...

I'm currently surrounded by boxes and packing paper, but I have online access again- Hooray! Luckily I'm on vacation this week so I can wade through this mess and hopefully come out on the other side.

In pony news, or more specifically My Little Pony Fair News, I am able to announce that we have received our 2010 MLFair exclusive pony. The My Little Pony Fair is going GREEN this year!


Also, if you are planning on attending this year's My Little Pony Fair and Convention and are wanting to purchase booth space for sales or display you may want to get on it. We've already sold out of our "Extra Booth Space" option and now only have regular vendor booths available.

For additional information about ticketing, contests, and this year's My Little Pony Convention, visit us online.

Now I'll dive back into my boxes.... Wish me luck!

Until I post again...

I'm in the middle of moving, thus the total lack of updates. Things should calm down in a week or two and I'll be back with some AWESOME updates about this year's MLPFair and this year's MLPFair exclusive pony. Including pictures. :)

Milk Chocolate G1 Sitting My Little Ponies- Available for Easter!

I recently tried my hand at candy making and am happy with the results! I am bound to try some new designs soon, but I have decided to offer solid milk chocolate G1 My Little Ponies for sale for a limited time to board members and blog visitors in time for the Easter holiday and Easter baskets. I figured that a sitting chocolate pony in an egg was as close as I am ever going to get to mint in egg Greek Ladybird!




Each pony is crafted entirely out of milk chocolate, wrapped in cellophane, tied with a pretty ribbon and placed in a plastic egg case for presentation (and protection during shipping). The pony is the same size as a G1 sitting pony. I will be taking up to 10 orders via email to summer@purplepajamapress.com and may open orders up again once I finish the first batch if there is time. The cost of each chocolate pony is $20 plus shipping. I apologize for the high cost, but these girls take quite a bit of chocolate and even more time!

I can also add Wilton Pearl finish and finish off the eyes (both done with entirely edible products) to get a finished product like this but it may cost a bit more.



I hope you all like them!
