What Makes Me Smile- Photo Challenge Week #2


Trey jumping off the dock. I am in love with this 1960's effect!

This week's challenge was something that makes you smile. Nothing makes me smile more than my nieces and nephews. Last weekend they came out to our house and we had a blast jumping off the dock, swimming in the lake and taking the canoe out. This first photo is my favorite of the ones I got.


It's not too late to join in the fun of the photo challenge. Hop on over to A Step In the Journey and check it out!

Three Cushions Done!!

I finished up two more of the cushions for the dark set of porch furniture. I love it!







Now all I need to do is get the rest of the porch prettied up. The white set of furniture for the other half of the porch needs to be painted and I need to make the cushions for them.  I am thinking a large decorative piece above the chairs and a pretty wreath on the doors. I also can't wait to get potted plants to put by the door. Ahh, next summer when the money is a little less tight!!

I used the same tutorial from Sew, Mama, Sew. The second and third cushion went a lot faster than the first one.

Happy Crafting! Thanks for Stopping By!

From Zoe's Kitchen- Loaded Scrambled Eggs


I don't normally make elaborate breakfast during the week, as my husband leaves for work much earlier than I do. But on the weekends we love making a big breakfast. Most of the time it is pancakes or french toast with fruit compote. But lately we have been on an egg kick.

I have come up with a scrambled egg recipe we love. You can do this with just about any toppings you want but I am going to share our favorite combination today. You can also vary the amounts of the veggies you put in. I love this because it is a yummy way to get your veggies in at breakfast!

Ingredients:
Olive Oil
Diced onions
Diced red pepper
Mushrooms
Baby spinach or regular spinach
Eggs (I use the Omega-3 eggs)
Milk
Salt and Pepper
Shredded cheddar cheese
Ham (we use the lunch meat kind, just tear it up)
Tomato (Fresh from the garden is the best)

Directions:
Saute onions, red pepper, mushrooms in the olive oil until soft.


Add spinach- you will want to add more than you think you need because it shrinks down a lot.



Mix eggs and milk in a bowl just like making regular scrambled eggs, I use about 5 eggs just for my husband and I. Season with salt and pepper.

Add egg mixture to pan over medium heat, stir as bottom cooks, just like regular scrambled eggs.

When egg mixture is almost cooked add cheese and ham and heat through. Add fresh diced tomatoes at the very end.

Enjoy!

I just love how bright this recipe is and how every bite has a different flavor and texture. My husband loves it to and it makes a quick delicious breakfast!

Made some MADE shorts and I Was Featured!

Happy Monday everyone, hope your week is off to a good start!

So I decided to make the MADE basic short pattern again for my niece. I added a couple inches to the pattern because it was a touch tight last time.  They fit ok, I need to add a few inches at the top so they aren't so short in the crotch for her. But she does look pretty adorable in them and she liked them a lot!








Also my jewelry hanger was featured on Made it on Monday!! Hop on over and check it out!
