I just wanted to post some of the last pictures of the Ladies Tea that I got to attend. After painting my tea pots, I had to get together all of the decorations for the tables. I already had the water cups, creamer/sugar containers, silverware, placemats, napkins, and the vase for the center of the table.
I was excited to attend the Ladies Tea for the first time at our church. They were asking for people to volunteer to make some food for the event which is how this whole thing started. I emailed asking what food they needed only to be asked to decorate a table. Having never attended this event, I had no clue what to expect or how the other tables would look. I asked for more guidelines and hit two large hitches. I needed to provide my own china and 2 teapots among lots of other things. I don’t own china or 2 teapots. I emailed a lot of the girls here in the area I knew and found one lady willing to let me borrow her china, but no one I knew had one, let alone two teapots.
I was super lucky to be contacted again by eShakti to do another review on one of their dresses. I got to pick which one, and this time I decided to try a sleeveless one since I don’t have one of those from them. If I ever get asked to review another one, I am hoping to get a sheath dress. I have very extreme proportions, and so getting one that actually fits my hips would be awesome!
Grant and I have been making our own laundry detergent for the past 3 years now. We both really like it, and let me tell you, Grant is super picky about laundry detergent. We make one batch once a year and then slowly use it up. Below are the ingredients and instructions that you need to make it.
This is a fast dinner recipe that my friend Rachel showed me, and that I make occasionally. Â It tastes good as left overs and freezes really well too. I normally make one recipe, and then I stick half into the freezer right away. Also, you can keep almost the whole recipe in your pantry if need be. I know that some people are anti cans, so you can always substitute if need be.
So, ever since I got my new sewing machine, I have been having a lot of fun stretching myself in terms of sewing. I was just going to give you a round up of a few of the things I have been working on.
