As you may have guessed from the title of this blog, I enjoy the crafting. Not so much crafting as scrapbooking (although I have been known to make fabulous Christmas ornaments, mainly my faux mercury glass ornaments). Anycraft, I've been artsy crafty for as long as I can remember and I grew up less than wealthy, so I love the idea of Amy Sedaris' new book, Simple Times: Crafts for Poor People.
Sedaris is a comedian and the book is written in jest, but I assure you, when I'm elected Something or Other, I will bring crafting to the poor. There will be a social program for crafts. Crafting is a right of life just like healthcare and cell phones and it's about time our government recognized this.
Let's watch Amy Sedaris on the Today Show.

I want her dress.
Also, non-crafters may not realize the problem of craft-induced back and neck pain. This is exactly why we have massage therapists at ScrapFest! Thank you, Amy for bringing this problem to the public's attention.
P.S. Drunk/medicated crafting is where it's at, but don't tell anyone I said that.
