How I love thee let me count the ways

Spiced Blackberries.


Perfect for over ice cream or on toast on those lazy sunday mornings.

In a pot I threw in 2 pounds of black berries and a couple cinnomon sticks and cloves.

Then you add some apple cider vinager and let it boil

Canvas Pocket Purse

This took me all of ten minutes to do and it’s a nice little night on the town purse.

What you will need:

-A piece of canvas 12×12 (I got mine in the scrapbook section in Michael’s)

-Sewing machine

-Velcro

– Hot glue gun and glue

-Button

Instructions:

I first folded five inches of the canvas, pattern facing pattern.

I stitched each side as picture shows to create the pocket.

Then turn right side out.

I then made stitched all the way around the “hood” of the purse to create seemless lines.

Then I hot glued the velcro on.

Lastly I sewed on my button set to give it a fancier look.

 

 

Stove…

First things first: I love taxidermy. I know i’m odd. But I find it so fascinating.

Not because I’m all for killing aniamls or anything.

But I find it a magical phenomenon.

Something once so alive, now starkly hanging on a wall looking alive and yet lifeless.

It’s a surreal thing for me.

So when I walked into this restaurant in all it’s quirk-glory to find it covered in taxidermy I was elated!

Then to add amazing cheese platters, Sam Smith oatmeal stouts and sea salt chcolate tortes were like glorious cherries on top of this memory!

Oh man was I a happy girl!
