Lunches for Ian

I just realized when I found this cute blog that Ian is starting full days of school this year and I will have to send him lunches. I need to make a trip to the Japanese dollar store and load up on bento boxes and accessories. Yes please.

I think I found a project for fall.


You could wrap it with ribbon, too. Find more at this etsy store.

Baby Quilt


Here is the adorable baby blanket I sent out months ago. I'm going to make it some day when I work up the courage to actually do a quilt. I can't really post a link to the pdf so if you want it just email me.

Honey Ginger Chicken Recipe

OK,

so I meant to share this the first time I made it. It is SO GOOD, and so easy. Freshly grated ginger has got to be one of the best ingredients ever.



Ame, I think you know the person who's blog I got this from? From the Y. She's the one who had Cindy in one of her pictures.

Anyway, here's the recipe. The only change I would suggest is cooking the chicken at a much lower temperature, like 375. I tried it at 475 like her recipe says and it burned all the sauce to a crisp, which you're supposed to be able to put on the rice when it's done.

Happy Birthday Ian!

I worked really hard at the lake to get Ian's quilt completely finished, but it just didn't happen. I got the top done, quilted it together, finished the binding, and got one snake head on. The rest of the heads are made but Amy is going to have sew them on for me (sorry Ame). I think it turned out cute though.

Christmas in July?

I finally finished this ornament I started making at an Enrichment activity last year before Christmas! You might be getting something similar this Christmas everyone...
