How to Make a Tasty Supper

Find a cute girl who wears hats well


Let her do her magic with the rolling pin and tortilla dough


Cook up the tortillas on a hot griddle and add some southwest bean mixture


Finally get the approval of another cute girl who, in this case, wears a sweatshirt hood well.


That is how it is done!

*******

P.S. If you are curious as to the hat and hood wearing at our house...

It is either that or fight for a spot by the heat vent.


Hat or heat vent.

It is your choice.

We will not judge.

Promise...

Sewing Catch Up

I am doing a little sewing catch-up posting today.

I already have these three dresses complete (for a couple weeks now) but I have not taken pictures of the completed dresses and realized I had not posted about the dresses while they were in the process of being made!

I will show you the in progress pictures that since I already have these pictures taken.

I will take the finished pictures soon and post them.

They turned out SO pretty.

Here are three a-line dresses.

Very cute!!

As you see at this point I still need to finish adding the back button and loop. I also have to still edge stitch around the necklines.


I am still needing to add the hem bands at this point.


Collar close-ups




Here is an owl themed circle skirt I completed.



Here is the other owl skirt I finished.



More sewing table up-dates soon.

A Mother's Delight

Elena in the Kitchen

Don't let the pink and purple hair,

the loud crazy Christian music,

the numerous band t-shirts,

the knee high converse,

her tendency towards wearing darker colored clothing,

her love of skinny jeans,

the FF5 toboggan hat (which she happens to look darn cute in),

or even the nose ring fool you.

She makes a wonderfully good from scratch cinnamon roll.






She has captured this mom's heart.

My eldest.

My Elena.

And she takes great pictures as well!!
