Tasty Tuesday!

Today I have 3 recipes for you!!

The first one is a nut encrusted salmon! So tasty if you like salmon!
You can find the recipe HERE!
The recipe calls for walnuts but I used hickory nuts for that extra flair! :)



The second dish is Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage which has quickly become one of my favs....I have recently made it about 3 times because I love it so much!! Simple to make and very few ingredients which is even better!
Click HERE for the recipe!



Last but not least is one of my fav cookies! They are called Sparkling Sour Cream Sugar Cookies! They do have a strong citrus flavor which I like but figured not everyone does so I should warn you! I first made these back in 2002 and it is one of those "keeper" recipes that I go to again and again!

* I used the cookie cutters I got from Jacque in one of her sweet stuff giveaways! * THANK YOU JACQUE!!!

If you try any of these recipes I would love to hear what you think about them!
Enjoy!

Senior Pic Scrap Page

My house has crappy lighting so please excuse the poor quality of my scrap page photos...not having a light box to fit these really drives me nuts!!




** You can't see them very good but in the upper corners of the pic on the right I used my tiny attacher to staple it for a little added texture and interest **




Tried to show a close up of the crackled effect on the chipboard frame and also the word "Senior" in silver. Once again....very POOR lighting!

You can try and click on the pics to enlarge them and hopefully you can see a bit more detail!

Tasty Tuesday!

Today I am going to share not 1 but 2 recipes!! The first one is called Pergogie.....one of my favs!!

Pergogie:
1 pound thinly sliced steak
1/4 cup dark soda pop
1 bunch of green onions chopped
3 garlic cloves minced
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup sugar
sesame seeds (however many you like)

You can marinate the steak with all the ingredients above if you want but most of the time I just throw it all together and put it in a deep skillet with a lid. Cook on medium until it gets bubbly....be careful as it will bubble over!! Once the bubbles get to the top take the lid off and check to see if the meat is done the way you like it and your finished!! So super easy and a really unique taste! Serve over your fav type of rice and add a side of veggies for a complete meal!



This next recipe is a familiar one you have probably seen if you have ever bought Nestle chocolate chips and it is called Razzmatazz Bars! Click HERE for the recipe! Mine do not look as red because I did not have raspberry jelly....I used Mayhaw jelly instead but I think you could use whatever you had on hand because they still came out really tasty...but super rich so a little goes a long way!!



Enjoy! :)

Grad Announcement Scrap Page

Underneath the announcement I stapled the commencement program so he can always go back and remember who spoke at the ceremony.

Lovin' my new Tiny Attacher! :)

WOYWW!

It has been a LONG time since I participated in What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday over at The Stamping Ground.
I am working on a few projects but really wanted to show you my new storage items I got recently. It is amazing what a few new organizational items can do to a room!

First up is my new Cropper Hopper! I actually got two of them because they were on sale for 30 bucks at JoAnns and I also had a 30 dollar gift card to use so that was a double bonus!! My hubby also got me a new label maker which you can see I started labeling some of the drawers already. Very handy indeed!



Next is my storage unit for Copics, prismas and my other tools for blending, etc. I should probably decorate the sour cream container one of these days! LOL!
Picked this up at Hobby Lobby for 6 dollars using a 40 percent off coupon! Don't you just love a good deal?! :)



My loose ribbon was getting out of control so I got one of these ribbon rings I have been seeing around in blogland....LOVE IT and so pretty!! I have it hanging on a floor lamp next to my cutting station.



Finally this is my dollar store find. Perfect for holding those extra small bits of fiber that won't work in the ribbon ring.



Hope you enjoyed taking a peek into my craft room and hopefully it will inspire someone with some organizational ideas!

Thank you!

Fixed Ornament

Keep forgetting to show this ornament I fixed. During Christmas at my MIL's one of my nephews (only 2) grabbed one of the glass bulbs and it busted to pieces. Luckily he didn't get cut! The ornament was from 1975 and it was the first of my MIL's collection which she started when she got married. I knew she was heartbroken but didn't want to make anyone feel bad so I took it home thinking I could try and fix it. Thank goodness it had the plastic wrap type image instead of the image actually painted on the glass! I spliced the plastic and then the next trick was finding a new glass ball the exact same size. Easier said than done (although after completing this project I found them at Hobby Lobby...go figure)!! So I thought this was a good opportunity to try something unique and I punched holes in the plastic with my cropadile and then weaved this lacy style ribbon through those holes while the glass ball was in the middle so I could tie it up....best part is I didn't even have to glue anything! :) She was very thankful I was able to save her ornament and loved the new design!





*Sorry for the black box reflection you see in the glass ball...it is from the opening of the light box!*

Tasty Tuesday!

Simple Baked Swai



Went to my local grocery store the other day and there was this fish on sale that I have never seen before called swai. Thought it looked similar to tilapia so thought I would give it a try. I usually pan saute tilapia but thought I would try a simple light breading for the swai and I must say it turned out marvelous! Very light and tasty! Went great with some asparagus and a multigrain roll too!

For the baked swai recipe click HERE!

Tasty Tuesday and Happy Australian Day!

With the huge time difference I do believe Australians are already celebrating and since I have a few very good pals that live there I thought I would wish all you over in Oz a Happy Australian Day!!

To tie this in even further my recipe this week is one I got from my buddy Annmaree at Emu Creations! She even sent me the wonderful Arnott's Choc Ripple Biscuits clear across the world so I could make this recipe!! I can NOT find these anywhere near where I live and I haven't found a good substitute either.....if anyone knows of one I would love to hear about it!!

So here it is....Arnott's Choc Ripple Cake!!!


** Sorry it was already half eaten before I remembered to take a picture ** It doesn't look as pretty as the recipe on the package but it still tastes great!!!

The company (Arnott's) does have a link to their recipe but for some reason it won't work here in the USA so HERE is the same recipe on a different site I found. ENJOY!!!

Glitterbabe Time!

Today our challenge is anything goes with sparkle! You can go directly to the challenge blog HERE!

Our sponsor this week is Pink Gem Designs and the winner will be able to pick out 4 digis as their prize!!

No! No! Challenge At Stamping Vacation!

* Sorry for the delay my internet was down ALL day yesterday! I realize I depend on it way too much! LOL! *

Ready for an easy challenge? This certainly is it!! All you have to do is NOT do something....so this month it is NO TAGS!! Pretty easy right? You can go directly to the challenge HERE!

This is my card using stamps from our sponsor The Stamps of Life. The set I used is called HappyBday2You and it is sooooooo versatile!! I love it!



I used some scrap paper...cut out the balloons and embossed them with different folders for a unique texture. I didn't have ribbon to match my card so I used rusty hinge distress ink on some white ribbon....seemed to be a good match! Just for a little something extra I used black enamel accents for the balloon strings! I'm pretty happy with how this came out! :)

Before I get to the challenges I just want to thank you all for your wonderful comments ... I read each and every one of them and I appreciate them soooo much!!
BIG HUGS!!! :)

Now for the challenges:

Tasty Tuesday and Tags!

Welcome back to Tasty Tuesday! Today I want to share something I made for my side and hubby's side of the family for Christmas plus a few extra for neighbors and the postal guy!

First I tried out a few different tags to see which one I liked better and which one was easier to reproduce quickly as I had to make several of them. All of them use the same stamp from Stampin' Up and I spritzed them with a green colored shimmerz. Then went around the edges with distress ink and finally topped them off with a snowflake and dew drop! Voila! Cute little tags to go with a gift! :)

On this tag I used flower soft on the bottom and puffy paint at the top....puffy paint took too long to dry. Yep, I get impatient!


This one uses some kind of glass....not the stuff I just posted about earlier today....but still made out of glass. Sorry can't remember the exact name but got it at Hobby Lobby. This one really sparkles (too bad you can't see it in the pic) and it was hubby's fav but I decided it probably wasn't the best idea to give with food....just in case! Always thinking of safety! :)


These are what I decided to go with ... nice and fluffy flowersoft on the top and bottom! I took a few different posed pics as I was pretty proud of them all! :)








Finally the yummy food!! BEER BREAD!!! I made two kinds....regular and my fav which is whole wheat with garlic and cheddar! YUM!! Goes great with soup during the winter!


This is what the final product looks like all packaged up and ready to hand out!


Now for the recipe!! It is soooooooooooooo difficult to make *chuckle*....a total of 3 ingredients!! LOL!! Yep, you read that right ONLY 3 INGREDIENTS!!!
Click HERE for the regular beer bread recipe and click HERE for the whole wheat version (I added some shredded cheese and garlic powder to mine). Now get to baking!! :)

Entering tags into the following challenges:
Top Tip Tuesday - Anything Goes
Whoopsi Daisy - No Designer Paper
Cupcake Craft - New (new technique, new shimmerz)
Phindy's Place - Distressing
Let's Ink It Up - Anything Goes

Distress Ink Chart

Sometimes packaging colors don't exactly match up with what the color looks like on paper so I did this little chart with all the distress ink colors I own. Hope it is useful for someone! You can click on the image for a better view.



I'm off for a grand date with the hubby before the snow storm arrives!! :)

Goodies in the mail! :)

This is what I got from my pal Corry some time ago .... sorry I'm just now getting around to posting it!! Isn't her card gorgeous? And I just love the paper, stamped images, lace and pins with beads! THANK YOU AGAIN!!



Here is a LOVELY stash of papers I got from my other pal Michelle. The papers are soooooo gorgeous and I also drooled over the beautiful flowers!! So pretty! And the stamp set is super cool too! THANK YOU!!!



I won this set of "Sweet Stuff" from Jacque and it was perfect for me as I love to cook/bake. It is a set of cookie cutters! Also some crafty goodness of a Magnolia stamp, ribbon, bling, and flowers! That canister she decorated is sooooo pretty!!! THANK YOU!!! ** Just a shout out that she regularly has sweet stuff on her blog so you might want to pop on over and check it out! **



Awhile ago I saw on someone's blog (can't remember who now) that you could sign up for the Colorbok Club and they would send you a free pack of paper. So I signed up thinking yeah right....just another scam to get my info. for SPAM/junk mail but maybe just maybe one day it might work! LOL! Usually nothing ever comes of it but this time lo and behold I got a pack of paper!!! It is really nice and I love the earthtones! It even has some glitter papers, sticker sheets and punch-outs!! THANK YOU COLORBOK!!!



Hope everyone had a great weekend! Mine was filled with dusting, sweeping, cooking, laundry, dishes, etc. The same ole stuff that NEVER disappears! I'll take volunteers if anyone wants to take over the cleaning part for me....I'll even cook!! Anyone??? .............................ANYONE????............PRETTY PLEASE??!!!Yeah, didn't think that would get anyone screaming to come clean for me! It was worth a shot though! LOL! :P

Music Scrap Page

My husband and I decided to rock out with my nephew after his graduation! LOL!
For the upper right hand music note I used a brass embossing plate and just sponged black ink and then topped it off with a little shimmerz. I couldn't help myself I gotta add a little something but I still think it is manly! And next to it in fine print is a stamp saying rock on multiple times with stars between each phrase.
The stickers are popped up for dimension and I added a bit of tissue tape across one of the photos for added interest. Oh and I also used some 3D white enamel accents to add dots every so often on the flourishes. Let me know what you think....I'm still trying to get used to making scrap pages! There is ALOT more area to work with than a card and sometimes that seems difficult, but so far I am happy with what I have done.

Challenges:
Cute Card Thursday - Out with the old (tissue tape, shimmerz)
Delicious Doodles - New (used new items like stickers and 3D white enamel, also new techniques like sponging ink into brass embossing plate)
