Late again

Sew. I have parties every 2 weeks for most of the summer. As usual, each person is unique and I have to find something unique for each of them. I have found projects for 2 people who are sharing a birthday date so that makes things slightly more complicated. One is a cat mad unicorn and cat lover, the other a movie geek, but still girlie. The cards will be no problem but what do I make them? I can just about access my sewing machine but obviously need more fabric and materials to make what I want. No canvas in my fabric statch which is a shame, and I need a heavier fabric for one of the makes! Hello Amazon. If I had though about this earlier in the week I would have the things here now. But my car was sick and that was the only thing on my mind. Wish me luck. Xxx ❤️

Tasty snack

Sew. After being off the gym for 2 weeks things were back to normal today.

I bought some fruit for our smoothies after the gym and came home to prepare them. Anyway, as I was clearing out the fridge I came across the bottom half of my butternut squash. I was about to chuck the seed away when I thought, why not roast them, so I did.

My own recipe below.

  • 1tsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tbls nooch (nutitional yeast)
  • a pinch of cayenne pepper
  • a pinch of salt

Seeds before washing

  • wash the seeds
  • pat dry
  • add spices and oil,
  • mix around.

When mixed put on a tray.I used parchment paper. I roasted them in a pre heated oven on 175-180. I heard a pop. I guess that was something to do with the moisture escaping whilst drying. I had eaten them before I started this post. They were tasty. A little kick due to the Cayenne pepper. Maybe I’ll add less next time, how much is less than a pinch!!

Sew,..SUCCESS XX

AAAAAAAhhhhh….

Sew, today the bf asked if I wasnted to go for an after work drink. He is on a no carbs thing but decided not to be today. I say yes. So after we find out the pub doesn’t serve mulled wine or Jamaican coffe, I had to order black coffee and a shot of Tia Maria. Sew after 3 of these I’m very awake.

My sister in laws sister owns a couple of Nurseries and had posted on facebook that they are holding a table top sale. So I ummmed and ahhhed and decided that I should do this. How the hell else am I going to promote myself…

So tomorrow, the bf has got me my birthday pressie early and I have to go pick it up, Crafting stuff basically…I have to get myself in gear and works my little tushy off. Wish me luck…
