Biscuits and Bacon...Yum!

I finally did it! I made those delicious biscuits and jam butter. They were pretty delicious.They were a little crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. The jam butter was strawberry.I only made one kind of butter because it requires a whole stick per flavor and my husband would definitely have found a way to eat the two other sticks. Methinks it was a good experiment especially for it being my first time making biscuits! Here is link to the recipe from SundaySuppers.

Winter Arrangement

Well its almost winter. This week I have been a little under the weather so I have decided to make arrangements from what I have in my yard and house to make me feel better!
My yard is full of succulents and citrus...so I have used vibrant green sedum and lots of little lemons that I skewered on bamboo skewers...the tree is full of them. I wrapped the glass vase with natural colored twine and tied a kraft paper star I cut out on it. I totally dig it and it was almost free...YAY!

Its a beautiful rainy day here in Southern California. So I thought I share one of my favorite pieces of art to brighten up this day! It is an 8 color layer hand pulled screen print. It was done by hand with stencils...how amazing is that? Its called Trippity Horse by Branchcake on Etsy. I hope you enjoy its intensity!

Scenes From My House

I recently found out about picnik from one of my favorite blogs J.ChristinaHuh.It is a photo editing service! I love it. I guess a lot of people know about it. Anyway here is my first experiment!

Breakfast of Champions!

Nothing says love like coffee and home made brownies( and not the box kind!) in the morning...
If you like brownies I recommend the Katherine Hepburn ones from the Gourmet Cookbook!

Finally...Some New Items in the Shop!

So I have been uploading for an hour...yikes! So here are the new cahiers finally done and photographed.
After a horrible printing disaster...here are the new bags! I took some photo styling ideas from Mav3191 and Littleglowinglights...and made them my own...thanks for the inspiration! So now I hope I will have dishtowels to list sometime next week and well the sparkly birds and wood necklaces they will probably have to wait until next year.
