Whenever I pull out batik scraps it inspires me to pull out the Jacquard textile paint, brushes and head outside to have some fun and make a mess. I plan on making 5x5” squares out of this panel. Thinking about calling this next project “Falling Leaves”
I LOVE when this happens….realized that the handyman & crew stopping by, so panicked when I realized I was out of AP flour, only bread flour on hand, along with other substitutions for my go to oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe from KAF website. Well…to my shock, this is the absolute best batch of these babies I’ve ever baked. I also added lots of orange zest, and white chocolate chips, as I was low on dark chocolate. A winner for sure!!!
Throughout the years I’ve hoarded all types of fabrics/linens/notions from estate sales and auctions and having the best time reimagining and making them come alive. This is a part of “Secret Garden Collection” I think this will be a 60x60 throw.
Sunday lunch served on the porch. I made a huge batch of pickled heirloom tomato salad yesterday, it only gets better with time. 🍅 Summer at its best! 😘
Always looking for creative ways to use up my homemade jams & curds. This time it’s 4 berry rhubarb. 😘
A couple of oven mitts to join the apron I made a few days ago. The “Secret Garden scraps collection”
Root vegetable colcannon has golden & red beet, gilfeather turnip, carrot, potato, kale, savoy cabbage, onion and garlic 😘
It’s been one hell of a rhubarb season in my parts. Had made lots of strawberry rhubarb low sugar jam, so decided to bake these yummy treats. There’s lots to share with neighbors. 😘
Homemade bun, ketchup, pickled peppers, cuke slices, red onion salad. Burger topped with shredded Gouda.
It’s the summer of scraps for me. Having so much fun and became inspired to begin “My secret garden” collection. Working on a quilt, but wanted to do something quick & spontaneous. Oven mitts to follow.
I often make sliders on homemade sourdough English muffins, but was dying to try the burger bun recipe from KAFlour. My first try and I’m thinking I slightly over-proofed?
A quick simple dinner. Didn’t have many options as I need to go grocery shopping. lol Look it when I feel like a contestant on Chopped. 😂
Basic all purpose flour tortillas. I use the King Arthur flour website recipe, very quick & simple. I roll out by hand the tortilla press always decides to hide when needed. I actually like to roll them thinner than the press anyway. 😘
So many scrap projects in the works this summer. Here’s a finished table runner. Working on matching oven mitts & apron with the same scrappy vibe. So fun! 😘
This crust is the absolute best! It’s the King Arthur Sourdough discard pizza crust recipe. I make the day before and refrigerate to develop that real sour dough flavor.
