Baking, Posting & Other ing's

I have officially died and gone to baking heaven.

I am not a fan of muffins I find them to be just a tad to much for me, being as I often navigate to fairy cakes, I like things small. I even find cupcakes a bit daunting to eat.

However this cheese and chive muffin recipe is the best and simply made me say aloud, Oh my god....

What's even better is that the recipe is simple as, just mix all the ingredients together till they combine then whack them in the oven.

Ingredients:

 1 egg

3/4 cup - Water

1 cup - Self Raising Flour

1/2 tsp Salt

1 1/2 cup - Grated Cheese

1 tblsp - fresh chives

As I said you mix them all together till they combine, then divide the mixture into a muffin tin (I used silicone ware and its great cause you don't need to mess about with cases)  

Bake in a preheated oven, at about 190 for about 15minutes. For my oven it was perhaps longer but I'd say until the cheese crust goes a nice golden colour.

Then eat as many as you can.

I am happily content also with getting back to sewing and these two little projects so far have been a joy to work on and I'll be just about to dive off the computer to carry them on so other pictures to follow.

Tell me what your working on?

Finally but not least!

Normal posting has been resumed! I am no longer beholdant to Saturday posting, so rush out and purchase....nah only kidding (unless you want too :) )

Late Night Stitching

Late Night Stitching

Not done that for sometime and it's something I have been trying to make a concious effort to do now that I work full time in London and free time is at a premium.

So here we go I have been making wrapped loops for no other reason than I like the effect, especially the one I did last night which was two plastic circles held together and then buttonhole stitch/loops all the way round. Then for added detail I stitched on small beads. Fun. I highly recommend this easy method of creating circles.

More to Come

Project finished!

How it was looking this afternoon
Just sewing on the press fasteners

Nothing quite like finishing a project for your own abode, I always feel slightly smug when I finish a project when its for me. Because frankly I rarely make anything for me, and to make something that's for me and practical frankly its almost a myth. Here we are an end of the bed thingie (I have no name for it) with pockets, done and dusted! Go me! It's now willing me to finish the experiment I had with the net curtain in the livingroom, going to finish it today, or at least get a fair whack of it done, so far I have two buttons badly sewn on and doing nawt.


Of course it does make me feel bad at the same time, I wanted to make some more things for my shop but I honestly don't know what to make. Which I feel sad about. So I think I'll get on with the mini patch work sampler and see where that takes me.


What wonders have you made?

Done!

 

Bedroom tidy...for a change.
End of bed hiding thingie put to use.
