It finally dawned on me no matter which way I turned the strips its not going to give a solid look in the background because of the prints,so just pick a way & do it! tomes a wasting!😄 I lowered the ironing board to the level of the desk made myself a cubby hole😄
Coffee was a must
making sure everything was squared up evenly for I'd noticed a few were off just a scant
making double sure the birds were right side up
next up is borders, Im glad a made a cake to help me through these decisions 🤣
this is my moms butternut pound cake recipe,Im not sure how long she had it but Im shy of 70 & have had it in my recipe collection for 50 yrs, 🤔I think its cast aluminum 🤷I know its heavy!😄she bought sometime back in the 60's, it got passed down to my sister then to my niece & now to me & still going strong!
the hummingbirds are starting to appear around the feeder,you have to be quick to catch a shot of them & very still😄
speaking of birds little mama wren laid another egg ,now there are 4
I gave the purple tomatoes a go in my salad today with strawberry vinaigrette dressing , I'm not sure how to describe the taste,they're not meaty like the reds but more smooth texture,the dark color reminds me of a pomegranate coloring,paired with steak seasoned with butter mixed with parsley ,dill, jarred garlic, rub it onto the steak,wrap & let it sit for about 30 min,cook in a skillet on low ,I added more of the seasoned butter when I turned it & when I plated it,you wouldn't think it'd come out tender but it was amazingly tender! This is one of my favorite go to steak recipes
Sometimes you just have to dive in there and go for it! Just as you did. Your quilt is looking fabulous. I adore the design. Your cake looks so yummy. I use my Nanny's cast aluminum Bundt pan. It makes all of the difference in baking. Have a great week, Helen. Hugs.
