I'd prefer the fish pendant

Tomorrow & Friday are the DIA DE LOS MUERTOS! I'm really into Mexican culture...I studied abroad there in college and minored in Spanish language. One of my favorite things about the mexican culture is the celebration of Dia de los Muertos. I'll have my own mini ofrenda tomorrow for my 2 babies I lost this year... and on Friday I'll have an ofrenda for my dad. Anyway, just thought I'd share! Here's more info about Dia de los Muertos, if you're interested in learning more about it: Day of the Dead in Mexico Here's a recipe for pan de muerto...I try to make this every year, it's YUMMY! Pan de Muerto, "Bread of the Dead" In celebration of Mexico's Day of the Dead, this bread is often shaped into skulls or round loaves with strips of dough rolled out and attached to resemble bones. Ingredients: 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup milk 1/2 cup water 5 to 5-1/2 cups flour 2 packages dry yeast 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon whole anise seed 1/2 cup sugar 4 eggs In a saucepan over medium flame, heat the butter, milk and water until very warm but not boiling. Meanwhile, measure out 1-1/2 cups flour and set the rest aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine the 1-1/2 cups flour, yeast, salt, anise seed and sugar. Beat in the warm liquid until well combined. Add the eggs and beat in another 1 cup of flour. Continue adding more flour until dough is soft but not sticky. Knead on lightly floured board for ten minutes until smooth and elastic. Lightly grease a bowl and place dough in it, cover with plastic wrap and let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1-1/2 hours. Punch the dough down and shape into loaves resembling skulls, skeletons or round loaves with "bones" placed ornamentally around the top. Let these loaves rise for 1 hour. Bake in a preheated 350 F degree oven for 40 minutes. Remove from oven and paint on glaze. Glaze 1/2 cup sugar 1/3 cup fresh orange juice 2 tablespoons grated orange zest Bring to a boil for 2 minutes, then apply to bread with a pastry brush. If desired, sprinkle on colored sugar while glaze is still damp.

I had to pay a retainer fee for my TA, but it was only $150 and is going to be put towards my final trip payment. I'd be a little suspicious of a $1000 deposit....

Shelley, this seems pretty easy to create on your own. It's all one color shade - just follow the ideas on those websites and I"m sure you can design it! It's really just text & boxes in varying shades of a color!
