Brussel Sprouts

So lately we have been eating brussel sprouts and I think this is the first time in my life I can say that I eat them and love them. I realize with cooking anything can taste good as long as you make it good. I came across this recipe the other day at Out Best Bites and it looked very similar to how I make mine, except in the recipe you bake them. They get tender and a little crispy, the perfect combanation. Go HERE for the recipe. It could also be good with some chopped onion in it.

I also purchased there cookbook at Costco and I love it. I love that there are pictures of everything and for me I like to see what the food looks like before I make it. For some reason I think if it looks good it will taste good!

Face Lift

So my kitchen chairs needed a serious face lift. They look horrable, and i had been putting it off in hope that we could get some new one's. But reality set in and we will not be getting new chairs for a while. So I took matters into my own hands and used some of the many yards of oilcloth I have lying around and put some of it to use.

I used the green mums which I love. My husband on the other hand hates anything floral so he does not like them. I think they are a huge improvement and maybe if he hates the floral enough he'll buy me some new chairs.

Jane Eyre

I went and saw the new Jane Eyre last night with some of my sisters and I loved it. But I love showes like this, so how could I not love it. Jane Eyre is such a sad story, but one of love and virtue. This new version has a little more romance, but I wish it would show them getting married at the end. I am always left wanting more.

Ruffle Apron

I thought this little apron turned out pretty cute! My Husband held it up and said "what's it supposed to cover?" really... have you never seen an apron like this, servers where them all the time at restraunts. But lets be honest it is mostly for looks right. But my husbands 11 year old niece liked it so i guess it was a success!!
