Recent Projects

Here are pictures of some of my more ambitious food projects from the last few months.




How would you have made lemon turkey? That's what
my girl requested for her birthday dinner. I took turkey burgers
and seasoned them with lemon,basil,and thyme.




She wanted a doll cake so I tried my hand at cake decorating.
I have a feeling that with 2 little girls I will be making this cake again!


The only complicated thing about this rhubarb pie for
Dennis' birthday was that it needed to be ready the same
day as the doll cake.

We Like Books

Whenever I start to deep clean or declutter a room, I usually start by choosing one item or area to focus on (i.e. a countertop, put all the shoes away, etc.) In my room, I start by collecting all the books that have accumulated and putting them away. Recently this is what I found as I went through my room.



As you can see, it is quite an ecclectic collection. Imagine how many books would find their way into my room if I let a bookcase in there!
