So much to do, so little time! You know what I mean? Today seemed to be like that. Clean this, clean that, go shopping, plant some more, get your visiting teaching done, make more appointments, cook dinner, clean up after that, it just keeps going. That's what makes life exciting though. I'm so glad my house is clean, I'm very grateful we got a blender, I'm excited for my plants to grow, and I had a wonderful time visiting my sisters today! For dinner I decided to go all out because I haven't done that in a while. Fried chicken and mashed potatoes! Yummy! Then for dessert I decided to try and make flan. I've never had it before but Richard loves it and apparently I did a really good job. It's...interesting stuff. It was good for the first 3 bites and then it got really sweet and old. Too mushy? Gooey? I'm not sure what the right word is, but if you've had it, you probably know. I did manage to get my down time today and make some crafts. I guess all this planting I've done has put me in a flower mood because that's what I made today. The first one is a paper flower. Technically it's a phone book flower but that's not important. I didn't have any fancy paper but I did have paint, so I used my resources! I used to be huge into origami when I was younger and this brought back some really great memories. (You'll probably see more now ;] ) This is super easy to do but gluing it together seemed to be rather difficult for me. I did figure it out though :D
The second flower I made is from a scrap piece of fabric left over from the skirt I made a while ago. Now I have something to match with my skirt :D I love when I can reuse old fabric or scraps and make something beautiful out of it :] I also have a lot of buttons which I have put on a few things lately, (not all are on here but I'll fix that eventually) so you'll see those quite a bit too. Please let me know what you think! I will take any ideas, challenges, requests, just let me know! THANK YOU!! :]
