Playing with Pizza.

A fun theme for any dinner party with friends.

Two nights ago, the Cowgirls invited their artist friends over for a build-your-own pizza party. But knowing only how to open a bottle of wine, we were a little nervous about cooking five pizzas. Turns out it’s easy. Buy crusts (Summerhill Market makes the best ones, so don’t opt for Pillsbury) and fresh toppings of your choice, turn your stove to 450º, cook for 15 minutes, and serve.

Her provokingly surreal artwork has been praised by some of the world’s hottest magazines. But Kathryn Macnaughton started her career in the classrooms at O.C.A.D. like so many other starving artists today.

Found in her Heart

Mixed Media artist, Danielle Hession, uses found items to create inspirational pieces.

Besides being a beautiful, young, talented artist, Danielle Hession also shares a love of riding – which makes her all the more welcome here at Mushy Pony. With a design degree from the Ontario College of Art and Design, and experience working from both New York and L.A., Danielle’s resume is nothing short of impressive. But it’s her work that’s the real treasure, in every sense of the word. She finds treasures from old photo albums, recycled goods, or even tossed objects – making her work not only remarkable, but environmentally friendly too.

The Cowgirls were excited to talk to Danielle about her designs, but they also wanted to know where she buys all her gorgeous vintage dresses – a staple to her definitive look.
