Sugar Cookies

Created with the January Color Me Daisy Kit. I chose to document my first time making sugar cookies with the frosting. The recipe was made with whole wheat flour and Olivio.

January kit

Color Me Daisy's January 2010 "Homemade Treats kit."

2010 can you believe it? just a couple days away.

Indian

Have you ever seen a 50 inch long rice crepe? Natosh the owner of Udipi made this one for me so I could have a taste. So amazing. It is crispy and light. Inside are super yummy mashed potatoes and on the side a spicy lentil soup. Udipi 2100 N. University Drive in Plantation Florida.

Vegetarian

Most people who know me, know that I am a selective eater. Yesterday we drove around our city and took pictures of the restaurants that have vegetarian fare. We ate at one Shing Wang, I will not eat there again..food doesn't feel healthy... Our search had begun to find a nice place to eat besides home.

Stuck Sketches

I created this album page with inspiration from the Dec 15 Stuck Sketches Sketch.

Project Runway Season 7

I am so excited that I don't have to wait a whole year to see the next season of Project Runway.

SCAL

You can see my work on the Craft Edge website for Sure Cuts a lot .. scroll down to the bottom of the page.

Eat

I laugh when people ask me "What do you eat?" I laugh because I don't have an answer. The chef at Cafe Emunah convinced me it is not the food you don't like it is the way it is prepared. And for the first time I ate fig, zucchini, and squash, and enjoyed it.

Decided that a picture of my front door was the most appropriate choice for this line.
