cute cupcakes come as camel-colored, carmel culinary confections 1
We had another Atlanta Blythe Meetup a few weekends ago. There were a bunch of cute, new dollies to oogle over. Afterwards Linda taught me how to make bead headbands and clay cupcakes, for Blythes of course! Below are my notes and shopping lists for making these myself… next time.
Atlanta February Meetup by the Numbers- Over 30 dollies showed up
- Approximately 8 pirate swords… Arrrrg!
- 5 Blonde Blythes
- 2 attendees with human offspring (aka Moms)
- 1 Irwin Street Market
| Blythe Bead Headbands |
|---|
| wire |
| wire cutters |
| pliers |
| plastic beads |
| Clay Food |
|---|
| clay in different colors |
| clay knife |
| latex gloves |
To make the clay food all you have to do is mix the colors, shape the clay into your cute creation, and bake for 13 min @ 350. Beat that Martha!
Next time we are going to make Matchbox Dressers. And maybe the guys can play Risk. Sweet! I can’t wait.
Recap from Ruby Coding Group: 8-11-07
- Make sure Ruby, Rails, MySql & Subversion are installed and working properly on your machine.
- Create 2 databases: atlrug01_development & atlrug01_test
- Login to Assembla where the atlrug coding project 1 is being hosted. You need to be invited to the atlrug project in order to checkout the project with subversion.
- Checkout the atlrug project: svn co http://tools.assembla.com/svn/atlrug. You will have to enter your assembla password and username in order to check the project out.
Here are two options for syncing the data between development databases in rails:
1. export and import sql—using a command like this one…
mysql -u root -p atlrug01_development < /path/to/your/project/.../atlrug/atlrug01/trunk/atlrug01/db/development_data.sql
2. fixtures + yaml
I placed a rake task in lib/tasks that will take whatever is in the db and dump that into a yaml fixture located in test/fixtures.
After checking out the latest version of the project, you run rake db:migrate & rake db:fixtures:load to import the yaml to your db.

First-ever SouthEast Blythe-Lovers Meetup
If you live in the Atlanta area or anywhere nearby, please join us for an Atlanta Blythe meet on Saturday, June 9 at noon at Atlantic Station in Midtown.
We will meet at NOON at California Pizza Kitchen for lunch and then hopefully head to the green space for some fun photos afterwards! Please pm me or reply here to RSVP no later than Friday, June 8 so I can know how big of a table to get. They do not take reservations so when you arrive just look for the dollies!
Hope to see everyone there!
Directions, parking and restaurant location can be found here.
Email me for an invite to our SouthEast Blythe group where we chat about Blythe and plan future meetups.
