A lot of the goulash recipes I see online don’t seem to have smoked paprika in them, which seems to separate this from a spagetti sauce. Basically, this is a spagetti sauce with smoked paprika in it. Add a little […]
I got a chance to use some more of that fabric that has been sitting in my closet for a long time. For these first two tops I used a shirt I had bought as the pattern. This first one […]
I had these things cut out for Kailan for about a month, so I put them all together at the same time. That way it only took me an afternoon to make him two pair of pants and two shirts. […]
I spent the first few days of vacation last week working for a bit. That was fun. Not! Anyways, after getting a few things out the door for work, I was able to concentrate on the LOADS of sewing stuff […]

Nothing too exciting to show, but I thought I would prove that I have sewed a bit more things in the last few weeks. Kailan needed some new pants. He loves warm and cozy fleece pants (who doesn’t???), so I […]
These are recipes my Sister-in-law, Susie, shared with me, so I thought I would pass them along… Clay 1 cup flour ½ cup salt 1 tsp powdered alum ¾ cup boiling water 1 Tbsp vegetable oil Food coloring (or drink […]
