My new sewing desk

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a great Saturday.  It has been a while since I have posted and for that I'm sorry. I have been very busy with school and I have been trying to come up with new ideas for blog posts. Many crochet projects are in the works and I can't wait to share them with you. I'm also trying to come up with a recipe for next month.

I do have something to share with you all. My birthday just passed and I got a wonderful gift from my husband. A new sewing table! He got the materials and my very nice neighbor built it for me. Here is the picture. Have a great weekend everyone!

Single Serving Cinnamon White Hot Chocolate

               It's been a while since I posted a recipe and guess what! I have a recipe for you today. Like all my other recipes it is super simple. It's rich and yummy, a dessert in itself.

             I've been having some issues with keeping up with my posts( hubby doesn't like that I blog). I am trying to post as often as I can and I have tons of recipe ideas. Ok, enough rambling here is the recipe. I hope you all like it. I also wanted to thank you all for sticking with me.


          Ingrediants:

         1 cup milk

         1 Tbl. white chocolate chips

         1/4 tsp. vanilla

         1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon


         Instructions:

        1. Heat milk in a mug in the microwave for 2 minutes.

        2. Add white chocolate chips and stir until melted completly.

        3. Add vanilla and cinnamon. Stir well and enjoy.

Makes a single serving. If you try this recipe or any of my other recipes I would love to hear what you think. This is a very sweet drink and if you want a milder white chocolate flavor you can always add less white chocolate. Have fun and enjoy.

Learning How to Sew: Project #2

I finally finished my second sewing project. I was going to make a pillow cover but decided on a throw pillow for my daughter. Sewing with a  machine is getting easier but I still need more practice. So, here it is. I love the fabric, it reminds me of summer. I would love to hear what you think. If you have any advice on sewing I would love some tips. Thanks for stopping by and please stop by often.
