Jason sent this frightening holiday image titled "Ho Ho...OH!!!!" saying, "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO HOO what a ride!.'"Thanks again everyone for your wonderful submissions. You can send your own to the address at the upper right hand corner of the site. It can take a month or more for them to appear so be patient. If you'd like to see them on the site sooner upload to Flickr with a "skulladay" tag and they'll show up in the sidebar!
And finally another amazing package arrived in the mail this week, this time from reader Beck in Australia!...
It included the dreaded Vegemite (as discussed in the "Peanut Butter & Skully" comments, which I will inded eat and most likely make a skull out of!), along with some awesome souvenirs and Timtam cookies! Thanks again Beck, you rock!
Is there a Skulladay pool on Flickr? If not, there should be.
ReplyDeleteKathleen, your nails rock! The booties are adorable,the coffee is very creepy, those cans are pretty damn cool (looks like it takes more patients than I'll ever have), and, V, I have the center skeleton. Except mine is faintly glow-in-the-dark and has a tooth painted gold like a pirate. Got it from a dollar store.
ReplyDeleteBooties! Are they for babies? I want that pattern!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how long the braincases have become, it's nuts.
Also: hilarious that you call TimTams "cookies".
ReplyDeleteWho would have thought that skulls were so contagious? I've been in love with skulls and coffins and all things morbid since I was a kid and they show up in my art every now and again. But since finding skull-a-day I seem to be finding them everywhere and I catch myself thinking how could I make a skull out of this?
ReplyDeleteOh, and TimTams are the best! You really need to try them with coffee. Bite of a little from two opposite corners, stick one bitten corner in your drink and then suck the drink through the cookie. Holy delicious!
Yay for the package arriving!
ReplyDeleteAnd oooh Timtam slams with coffee... always done mine with hot chocolate, but mocha would be good too :)
Glad you enjoyed!
i love skulls from one dollar stores!
ReplyDeletei like walking and search for skulls in every shop.
(:
When eating Vegemite for the first time use plenty of butter and a very light spread Vegemite. Most people spread it thick the first time and hate it afterwards. The best thing to have it on is toasted whole grain bread.
ReplyDeleteWow! Kimi's candycorn skull is S-W-E-E-T!!
