I am happy about sewing this week. Not sure if I’ll actually finish a project but I bought some patterns (Tracy Reese Vogue patterns V1203 and V1190 and DKNY V1250) and I got some fabric for the kitchen chairs, if there is enough left I will also sew some pillows for the couch. Isn’t it pretty and summery? The fabric, not the patterns. The dresses I am happy about, she designs a lot of stuff for Anthropologie so I am going to look for some fabric that’s not so harsh a look as what the patterns show, I want something softer and more floral.

So a few years ago I put up a picture of my 15 cent clearance section at Kroger rosebush – this year it has looked fantastic so I wanted to show it off:

My new favorite and low (under 250 calorie) snack
Posted by superjen under fun with food.Leave a Comment
Smoothies!
This is my new favorite. I froze regular made-with-real-sugar-not-’lite’ strawberry yogurt in ice cube trays. I also froze 1 inch chunks of banana.
Take the cup to the Magic Bullet, and add 2 regular ice cubes, two yogurt cubes, 4 chunks of banana and a few whole strawberries.
Next, add a half cup or so of milk.
Screw on the cap and blend it, shake it so the chunks fall down to the blades, blend it again…keep doing that for about 30 seconds or so and voila!
A great tasting strawberry banana smoothie that has not too many calories and keeps me from feeling like I’m starving if I’m running late for lunch.
Now my freezer has little baggies with pre-measured amounts of yogurt cubes and fruit, so all i have to do is
grab one and throw it in the cup with milk. Because I love to organize stuff so I can be lazy

These little mushroom shaped crackers dipped in chocolate are SO GOOD. I need to go back to Aldi tomorrow and buy them all before they’re gone!
