This will be a revamped blog. I decided to start over. It probably won't be as personal as the first one.

kaj designs....talented.....blessed


This stuff is from last yr though. He was featured in the paper on Sunday. (still need to find the articles)
I wish you could see the bamboo earrings they are totally fab-u-lous
you can see better with the link
Sometimes I really feel like not only do I know everyone but also that I have had a connection with them. I am really proud of Kevin the skill he has developed and that he can live his dream and basically produce what he sees in his head. He is going to be featured in caribbean fashion week.




LOl its funny for an entire school term he was my secret admirer and I had no clue it was him...and we didn't even go to the same high school. It probably would have helped if I knew the courier was his cousin...actually no that wouldn't have helped.
Very passionate words. (not sure if I kept the letters)
Really cute gifts (teddy bears, earrings) and great chocolate.

It really puzzled me for a while cuz we were friends and belonged to some of the same organizations and were around each other a lot.
It's only when he put his nickname in one of the letters I was like "oh snap" Mumrah.....was he the bad guy in Thundercats? I think it was Thundercats and no he isn't ugly I can't even remember how he got that nickname I think either PG or Devon gave it to him.
Anyway it was then I realized why he was secret for so long 1. I had a boyfriend at the time and 2. they were friends and we all hung out in the same circle.

So I had to have the whole I'm with someone now and am not about to ditch them to start another relationship...after that we were cool but in a very sterile way like he was going out of his way to be totally transparent in his actions and words. I kinda missed my carefree friend that said anything, but he would always be there if I needed to talk, wanted encouragement or was begging for compliments ; )
Kaj proof that not all designers are gay. (why did I say that)
He is super talented and a genuine sweetie....unless he doesn't like you...hmm who knows maybe he has mellowed with age.
Isn't it funny when your mom gets tight with someone who used to have a crush on you. She was one of his first customers when he started out with applique shirts, tie-dye and other made to order designs now he can do sandals, earrings etc its just amazing.
So thanks mom for calling back and giving me some better news on Sunday. Fortuitious that he was the reason why you told me to hold on ( I was getting heated my mom could put me her daughter...overseas on hold, but since it was for Kevin with his news she was lucky).
