Pineapple weed ice cream with dock flour oatmeal cookie pieces swirled in. Topped with extra dock flour cookie pieces.
Finished all my projects for the week
The frame is obviously a repeat as I posted it a couple of days ago but it all looked really cool together so I wanted to include it. I have been stuck in bed with the way the weather has been (chronically ill) so a lot of work being done in general right now
Mini vegetable bookmarks. Purple cauliflower, tomatoes, and corn.
Working on a mixed media piece about my journey with mental health
I finally finished the embroidery part of the piece. It took quite a bit of time and my fingers hurt so much (so many stitches through the canvas underneath 🫡) but I think it was worth it. Happy to talk about the theme more with anyone who is curious. Also don’t mind the dachshund lol he doesn’t let me work without being in my space in some way.
Made jerk seasoned lion’s mane and put it in a homemade empanada with some cheese and pineapple salsa
Mushroom toast
Found some wine caps and decided I wanted to do mushroom toast. Sautéed them, made a chestnut (also foraged) and goat cheese whip, threw together a fennel and orange salad, and topped it all with toasted hazelnuts and red clover petals.
Steak from last night. Working to get it dialed in but pretty happy with how it came out
Newest piece I’ve finished
My fingers are absolutely sore after this but I think it’s worth it 🫡
Chestnut cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting and dried magnolia powder
Before things start piling up I wanted to clear out my freezer a bit. I had some chestnuts that I foraged last fall and wanted to finally use them. So I made a chestnut filling for cinnamon rolls. I topped them with cream cheese frosting (a bit too much but that’s my personal preference), and some dried magnolia powder I made this year. Overall satisfying!
Made gougeres for the first time. I filled them with a ramp ricotta mixture and then dusted them with dried ramp powder I made. Absolutely one of my favorite things I’ve made recently. Second slide is one cut open
Finally worked up the courage to share. Here a couple of my favorite pieces I’ve done
I like to do a lot of beaded elements on my work recently but these are all from between last October to now.
