Easy French Onion Soup

12:00 AM 0 Comments
I have to say French Onion soup is one my favorites. I make it all through the year and yes I do it all sorts of ways. This one is super easy and takes no time at all. I used one really large onion and one smaller one. I chopped them up into smaller pieces and threw them in the pan with some oil. I let them sweat some...

Dresden Pillow Tease

12:00 AM 0 Comments
Ever since I got that Dresden die I have been wanting to make a pillow with the pattern. I FINALLY started it but still have work to go. Cutting out and pinning on the pattern was easy but sewing around it all- well that is a whole another story. I am working on it which is better than just thinking about it. I miss sewing...

Faux Gallery Wraps

I saw these awesome faux Gallery wraps on Pinterest and thought of course I could do that so of course I did. I took a 5x7 photo I ordered and a 5x7 canvas. I wanted to try it small to see how they worked out before I did bigger or more. I painted the endues black as well as some of the canvas on the side so that no white...

Roasted Corn Salsa

I have been doing this Veggie/Fruit Co-op for about 2 months now and it was my turn to go. I have a great partner and we ventured to the north side of Houston to a area that is where the wholesalers are located.

Floral Arrangements

12:00 AM 0 Comments
I needed some spring in the house and when I think spring I think flowers. I would love to have fresh flower deliver every week but alas I am not Martha so I have to settle for fake plus because I am so frugal, I also got everything from either the dollar store or the dollar rack at Target. The most expensive thing was...

I got the Lime and chili version and have been trying to figure out what to with it. I had some left over chicken from the night before so I took that and chopped it all up.  I...

I love the saying "The Earth without art is just eh".  I have been seeing it all over in craft projects as of late and went to my trusty Stampin Up! My Digital Studio (which you can try for free) and created this fun frame insert. I just opened the program, created what I wanted using the 5x7 postcard feature, and...
