Yummy Eats!

The Bald Man and I have been expanding our cooking skills....

We have been cooking such amazing stuff lately we've not even been out to eat in well over a month... and we've not missed it!!!!



Like.....
Caesar Tortellini Salad with Sauteed mushrooms...

Easy... not expensive.. but soooo good! Very easily can be a whole meal...












This pic to the right looks like a mess but it was one of the most wonderful dishes I have ever ate!!!! And I've eat at some amazing places..

If you like seafood... its a must... 4 layers of seafood... light white fish, bay scallops, shrimp and crab cooked in an amazing, super rich sauce...

Its called Seafood Melange.
I made it this week for Bald Man's B day.
He was over joyed with it!







And Sicilian Cheese cake

a wonderful crust less cheesecake made with 2 lbs of ricotta... bliss... pure bliss....

You can find versions of all these recipes on All Recipes
A great site for trying new things with plenty of reviews!

They even have a feature where you can type in an ingredient and it will bring up all recipes with that ingredient..... so cool!

On the sewing and crochet front... I have a new outfit I will be wearing this weekend! I am crocheting a whole sweater! finishing up the tutu for a client and starting a belly dance costume for another client and good friend.

A Great Weekend!

The Bald Man and I had a fantastic weekend! Friday we just kinda hung around the house.. watched a movie. Saturday was 'going out' night! We went couple of places and then ended up at the Mirage. Its been awhile since I've been there but we told Rach we would come see her dance. Here she is to the right in a bra and belt I made which looks great on her!! I hate to say it but I really don't like watching bellydancers after all the years of dancing myself and watching them. I find it boring... unless the dancer has what I call the "it" factor. Let me tell ya! Rach has the "it" factor! She sparkles and grows when she dances. Most people can learn to dance... but not everyone shines when they do it. I'll be back to see Rach dance again! Below we have a pic of Capt. Bald Man! Yesterday we took one of the boats out for a joy ride on Lake Loudon. We had fun... and some surprises along the way!! It was a beautiful day to be on the lake!!! Next Sunda...

For those of you who follow my blog you know I have the Babylock Evolve which has cover stitch abilities.. but I have to convert it.. and I'm lazy. I sew ALOT of knits!! So with the money I made off of a couple of costumes I bought this! And its love!!!! Adding a new machine means re-organizing my sewing rooms to make it work... so my stash got re organized too... check out how neat it looks now!! Actually we're re organizing alot of the rooms in our house... here's the Bald Man in his new office! LOL!!! You can't even walk in there! Also.. I joined the Sew Craft Blog !

I get new tops, the Bald Man gets a shirt!

Below is Burda 8116. A super easy tank top with a wrap topper. The pants are from BWOF. This was such an easy pattern!!! I made the below tank and topper in an hour... seriously! Ofcourse I must say having a cover stitch machine greatly speeds up sewing knits. In fact the day after I made these... I made 2 more tanks, another topper.... and the below view from the same pattern... a simple mock wrap top. The jeans were made last year from a pattern I copied from rtw. Anyways for those of you looking for a quick project... gotta get this pattern! Below here is NL 6429. It was easy too.... I actually made this last fall and never got to wear it... I wore it last night to Latino night at the Fairbanks.... good times! I wouldn't mind making another dress like this in some less 'fancy' fabric. Another shirt for my Bald Man... this was his B-day present... made once again using that wonderful Islander pattern. I embroidered a cross on the pocket... Some crosses on the sleeve... A...
