Aebleskiver


I'm in the mood to cook.

Also, I think my sweet husband is homesick for Denmark and his family living there. He even got out the Danish cookbook that was given to us when we got married and looked at recipes and talked about eating the different things growing up.

When we've visited Denmark I ate many things but many I'm not sure what I'm exactly eating. All I know it tastes good. One of the best things I've had is this dish that looks like meatloaf only to find out that it's liver pate. Plus the dark bread...mmmmmm...yum!! (Where's my sister-in-law when I need her to help me with the names of things....LOL!!)

One of the things that he likes are Aebleskiver. I have the pan that my mother-in-law brought to me from Denmark when she came to visit. I'm going to make these for him in the next few days. I need to make sure I have some Nutella on hand as this makes them extra yummy!!!

Hello


It seems I start blogging again and no sooner than I get into it, I fall off the wagon again. At least I fell off for good reasons. I've been busy. This time of year it seems so much is going on. Last week and this week on Monday evening I've been taking a Cricut class at a new scrapbook store called Make Time To Create. Cute store with a bit of everything crafting.

Also, I've been cleaning and removing things that we don't need from the house. I don't like clutter. I've got it all in once spot now and now I need to sort it all out and donate some things, sell some things and toss some things.

Most of all I've just been having fun (plus a few nights of work too each week)

Fall in Southern Indiana

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. I LOVE it when the leaves change and the landscape is a sea of many colors.

A few weeks ago we went to French Lick to ride the train and it was so pretty on this sunny afternoon. I asked Anders to stop so I could take some pictures...beautiful, absolutely beautiful.

Craft Projects

This past weekend I went to Montgomery, Indiana at the Gastof Amish Village for our annual girls weekend Croptoberfest. I had a wonderful time and it was great to see everyone. Only one person was missing but she had a good reason...a new sweet baby boy made his arrival a few weeks ago. The weather was perfect and the food was yummy too!!

I have been scrapbooking every week and was a little burnt out doing the traditional scrapbooking pages. I decided to do something "out-of-the-box" for me.

My first project was a little 6x6 album with pages that hold CD's. I backup my photos to an external hard drive but I also burn my photos to a CD. Now I've got a cute book to keep everything in. Once I put the CD in the envelope, I'll label on the front of the envelope with details of what's on the CD. On the cover it's a bit hard to see in the photos but I used my new iRock tool and embellished the cover with yellow, purple and orange rhinestones.

My next project was a cute flower photo album held together by ribbon. I decided to use pictures of Lily since it was a bit girlie and with it being a flower and Lily is a flower name. I still need to journal on the last page. The photos are on the day she turned 1 year old.

I think my projects turned out pretty cute!!

Pretty Girl

Doesn't this little girl look cute in her new collar? Lily picked it for her so of course it had to be pink. It has a little dog bone charm with pink rhinestones on it. So cute!!
