There was barely whatever fourth dimension yesterday morning time for my daily dose of tiresome stitching, but about is ameliorate than none. So, I started my novel project.
That was equally much equally I had fourth dimension for because I needed to larn going on our dinner. Mike smoked too grilled a flank steak, but I needed to larn it inwards the marinade. Also, in that place was pie on final night's menu.
Lemon Meringue is my favorite, equally it is for therefore many others. It isn't difficult to make, but it is a flake of a to-do. I similar this recipe from Cook's Illustrated for Ultimate Lemon Meringue Pie. Ordinarily yous would necessitate a membership to run across their recipe, but mortal posted it on Genius Kitchen, too therefore yous tin abide by the recipe right here. Rolling the pie crust inwards graham cracker crumbs is a genius step. It keeps the pie dough from sticking to everything ameliorate than flour alone. So hither it is...a affair of beauty if I do tell therefore myself. And it tasted equally skillful equally it looks.
There was about lite housework to do, too Mike helped amongst about of that too. When the clock said 3:00 p.m. I had everything done that I could do, too therefore in that place was about fourth dimension for sewing. I went conduct to run on the Paintbox Pizzazz blocks. This is my instant projection for this year's Rainbow Scrap Challenge. First, I cutting the squares. I needed xvi fabrics to brand four blocks.
Then, I made them into one-half foursquare triangles too seat them out pinwheel style.
After that, I sewed together the pinwheels,
too and therefore added the dark too white corner squares. And those were done!
Here are all the blocks I bring therefore far for this quilt.
It was virtually 4:50 p.m. yesteryear then, which was perfect timing because I even therefore needed to brand about Tequila Slaw amongst Lime too Cilantro. And allow me only tell you, that is a delicious slaw. It's therefore slow to brand because it uses i of the packaged mixes too only a few ingredients. It's rattling depression inwards calories too it's on our diet. You tin find the recipe correct here. And if yous don't desire to purpose the tequila, yous tin only live on out it out. It should plough out only fine without it.
Okay, therefore the Queen volition grant yous an audience now. She likes this pillow nosotros proceed on the couch downstairs, too she has adopted it equally her throne.
So today I'll larn started quilting the Rainbow Jubilee quilt. Originally I sentiment I mightiness do it amongst a grid, but I've had instant thoughts virtually that. When I seat it out to sandwich it, I came upward amongst a novel sentiment that volition require the purpose of curved templates. I'll tell to a greater extent than virtually it when I brand upward a exercise slice too laissez passer on it a try. Tune inwards tomorrow for the exciting conclusion.
