Popovers

I started making a sourdough starter again from this recipe.  It has been years since I had one. As I was feeding the new starter, I needed something to do with the extra.  I found this fun recipe for popovers.  It is amazing that with so few ingredients, you can make these.  I made a few mistakes along the way, such as not greasing the pan enough.  They were really stuck, but still turned out tasty.  They have a delicious egg-y flavor that is great for breakfast! I ate them this week with strawberry jam or apple butter. Yum!

Small afghan

I started this project so long ago I don't remember where I got the pattern from.  Over Christmas I finished the squares, sewed them together, and did my first I-cord boarder.  I did the boarder on the wrong side, but it still turned out ok.  I hope to give this as a baby gift for one of my oldest friends.

Food post

I've made a roasted brussel sprouts and bacon salad.



Bread

And more bread (minus the olives).
Mine turned out a little undercooked and soggy from the bacon grease.  Not my best result...

And soup.

And salad in a mason jar.

I am planning to take this to work tomorrow.  It has balsamic vinaigrette (which I have fallen in love with!), finely chopped carrots, roma tomatoes, cucumber, kale, spring greens, mozzarella, and avocado.  Yum!

Getting creative

Remember how I found fabric at Tuesday Morning?  I snatched a bunch of fat quarters and used this Pinterest post as my inspiration to create this:
It needs another boarder of gray and then can be finished!  It's not quite the right size for a twin, so will probably be useful as a throw size quilt.
