Hello friends,
Hope you all are
enjoying Sunday in your corner of the world.
I had a great weekend –
we went grocery shopping, had family over for dinner and I cooked so many new recipes.
I know its Hermit weekend and I was supposed to stitch as much as I can. However,
I love cooking and hosting guests so doesn’t feel bad if cooking cuts my
stitching time once in a while ..lol
I stitched my House of
Margaret Mystery SAL piece during IHSW. We are on week 7 and the last part will
be released next Friday. In my introduction post to this project, I wrongly
mentioned that the SAL will last 17 weeks.
Here is a before pic
Here is an after pic.
As you can see, the SAL
is not a mystery anymore..haha. We see Alex, Marty, Melman (from the movie
Madagascar) in the picture above. However I’m still guessing who the grey
animal is, at first I thought it’s an elephant, because of the big ears in the
pattern. DH says it’s a donkey. I don’t remember a popular elephant or a donkey
from the movie. So, it looks like it’s going to be Gloria with long ears.
I’m hoping to finish
this project next Friday when the last part is released. A happy dance is long
overdue.
I will leave you with a
picture of Black bean quesadillas I made for lunch yesterday. They turned out
delicious. If you are interested the recipe, it is from http://thekitchensinkblog.com/.
Instead of using canned
beans and store bought chipotle sauce, I cooked the beans myself and made chipotle
sauce with Indian chilly.
