Doing Sunday Breakfast the Right Way

I always loved waking up on Sunday morning and realizing that I had a full day with nothing scheduled to do.  My first thought was inviting Andy and Jaycee to go with me to Cracker Barrel but now that I'm living on a retiree's allotment, spending money on a restaurant meal takes prior planning.

Fortunately, I know that I can make a breakfast just as good as Cracker Barrel (and I know the quality of my ingredients).  Therefore, today I fixed a traditional breakfast for my family.  It may have not been the healthiest meal, but it sure was good!
Roasted Herb and Garlic potatoes

I used Yukon Gold, Banana and French fingerlings, and Baby Blue potatoes tossed with olive oil, parsley, garlic, thyme, sage, and rosemary.

A colorful meal (This was Andy's rasher of bacon!)


Take time to enjoy a meal with your family.  It will be the best thing you do all week.

Compendium of Curiosities 3 Challenge

Image
I finally stepped out in faith and decided to join an art challenge.  I've been struggling with my muse lately and evidently I am winning...my muse decided to step out of the picture and not let me beat her up anymore. In an effort to regain my artistic desire, I am joining this challenge hosted by Linda Ledbetter of Studio L3 . All of the challenges will be based on the 34 techniques from Tim Holtz's latest book, Compendium of Curiosities 3 . So, without further ado, here is my submission for the first challenge sponsored by Inspiration Emporioum .  The prize is a $50 gift certificate!  Even though I've vowed to not purchase any new supplies this year, I don't think I would have an ethical problem with spending a gift certificate. Hope you follow along on this journey...I'm excited to be back in the studio after a long, dry, non-creative spell. Marbled technique on canvas. Dimensional Paste wings. Subtle marble technique on grunge board Color Com...

Altered Clogs using Stencils with Texture Paste

Image
I suffer from neuropathy and often have a difficult time walking.  I'm always looking for shoes that are comfortable and also supply enough support.  I had a pair of clogs that I wore when I was going through Esthetics training...the typical 'nurses' shoe.  I know the saying goes that we can wear white after Memorial Day, but trust me...no one should wear white clogs unless the occasion warrants it. Today's picture tutorial shows how I altered my training clogs into a stylish pair of gardening clogs. The original shoes are very white and made of some type of poly material.  Ranger's Distress Paints are permanent once they are dry so I decided that would be the way to go to paint my shoes. I decided to go with three shades that would bring a woodsy, natural look.  I started with Walnut Stain Distress Paint.  It took a couple of coats to get the desired coverage. I used  Forest Moss as my  second color and Bundled Sage...

CC3C #3

Here I am again with the third project in this challenge using a faux tea rose. We are not posting instructions on the techniques of the challenge in order to insure that people who want to learn buy Tim Holtz' fabulous book from where we get all our inspiration! I skipped #2 because it used a product that I did not own and I have vowed to not purchase any more art supplies until I make a good dent in those that I already own.  However, this week's challenge is sponsored by Inspiration Emporium .  If I win the $50 gift certificate, I can buy enough new products to ensure I never have to skip a challenge again! On to the Challenge! Products used: Distress Ink pads in forest moss and frayed burlap, Distress Paints in bundled sage and picket fence, Ranger's Archival Ink in Jet Black, Ranger's Inkssentials Glossy Accents, My stash: 6X6 chipboard panel, hand-dyed paper, sage ribbon, quote stamp. Painted chipboard with Bundled Sage distress paint, went over with p...
