Widdle Willy's Dresses...




Willy turned 5 at the end of November. I made her 3 dresses. My favorite is the pixel like squares. I love the colors! The purple one she is wearing is her favorite. Purple is her favorite color but I figured she'd love the princess castle one the best. So glad I made her them. At this point they are nice unstained, no holes nice dresses! I have banned them to going to church or special things. I am hoping they will stay nice for a long time.

Facebook....

Too much of my time was being spent on FB. So I did a temporary disable of my account. You can find me here posting when I can. And I will be back on FB after the baby comes. I have plenty of sewing and work to do in the mean time and it is just moving too slow. I am focusing on what I need to get done and dropping what I can in order for more 'real life' time.
Have a super day!

Egg Nog


I am a lover Of Eggnog. And I love Alton Brown's recipe. Though I generally use 1 TBS Rum Flavoring instead of the alcohol. Last night I used 1 TBS of Brandy since I had nothing else. It was so yummy! I could live off this stuff in the winter. I also use Honey and at times use part stevia in it.
I really recommend trying this. I do the raw version. Farm fresh eggs and Milk really make the best eggnog ever!

Try it and let me know what you think! Or come on over and I'll make you some!

The Boy and church....






Daddy is a Power Lineman. He was called out last Sunday and missed church (walked in at closing song) So me with 5 children in church I had to do something to keep the Boy busy. I handed him the camera and let him take pictures. He loved it and sat nice and quiet. Nice to have tools in the purse to keep him happy. (and quiet)

Donut dough....






Had a huge want of donuts for about a week! Finally had to give in and make some. So easy. Took a little time but so worth it! Was worth the time and effort for sure. These were cake donuts so they are faster than yeast donuts. Here are pics of making up the dough. More pics coming later. The boy loved the mini donut holes! They disappeared fast with no sugar or chocolate frosting! Finished donut pictures on the way!
