Sewing: Week Twenty Four Reusable Paperless Towels
Reusable paperless towels is the sewing tutorial for this week – week twenty four! We’re almost half way there. This resolution has been so fun and at times a bit annoying, yet I’ve enjoyed each and every project. Oh, and I learn something new each time. On this project I gained some confidence and serged rounded corners. They look good, too. Okay, let’s get started. These reusable paperless towels are made of diaper cloth which is super absorbent and easily washable. You can pick a…

Travel: Going-to-the-Sun-Road
Going-to-the-Sun-Road was a highlight on our recent trip to Glacier National Park. So beautiful. My dad knows I love to travel and over the years my stocking has been known to have a travel book or two. They live in the bathroom and often wander out to the kitchen counter to show Bryce where we should travel to next. While we were travelling in Southeast Asia I mentioned that I wanted to go camping this summer and I thought Glacier National Park would be a…

Recipe: Campfire Avocado Mash
Campfire avocado mash – this was our breakfast on day one while we were camping in Glacier National Park in Montana. So fun! I called ahead to see what I could bring food-wise across the border. I couldn’t bring meat or eggs. So, we stopped at the St. Mary’s Grocery Store, yet they were out of eggs. No…I was going to make Guac-Eggers. Bummer. I’ll have to make them another time. What I did find, however, was this smoked chicken breast and it’s gluten free…

Recipe: Black Bean Burger Bombs
Black bean burger bombs are a take on my black bean burgers. This time, however, we stuff them into onions and cook them over the campfire! They’re going to be super good and full of flavour. I made them ahead of time then put them in the freezer – that way, they help keep the other foods in the cooler cold. Then, in the evening, after we’ve set up our campsite, just in time for dinner, they’ll be unthawed a bit and ready for the…

These pillow cases are fun and just a bit of a nod to being Canadian.…

Recipe: Frozen Grapes
Frozen grapes – they’re like cold candy. Seriously, they are so good and I don’t have to feel bad about eating a whole small bowl to myself. Summer is the best time for frozen grapes. You pick – green or red – the choice is up to you. I’ve done both and I prefer red, but the green are good, too. Frozen Grapes Okay – time to get started. It’s super complicated so be sure to follow along. Who am I kidding, this is easy,…

Sewing: Week Twenty One High Low Hem Dress
High low hem dress is here, time for summer. This dress is comfortable and a bit vintage. The fabric, though, is so fun. In all honesty, I didn’t know it was flowers when I first purchased it – I didn’t see them until I had the fabric sprawled out and ready to cut the pattern. I do like it, though. It’s a bit retro, which isn’t something I pull of well or often. High Low Hem Dress I used this very easy McCall’s pattern –…
