For my birthday, I made a tres leches cake using Alton Brown’s recipe. I added a little spice and made a fruit compote topping. I was very pleased with my birthday cake!
Summer is a quiet time crafts-wise for me, and leads to quiet blog, as well. But I did get some baking done!
This piña colada cupcake fills me with joy every time I see it. Bakingdom, the blog that it’s from, is a great cupcake resource, and everything Darla makes is adorable.
Amazingly, I found out about a fair isle class happening shortly after I posted about wanting to learn fair isle. I took it as a sign from the gods and signed up. I’m making a hat!
Inspiration for the week of April 25, 2011!
After sitting in my queue for over a year, I finally buckled down and knit my Ishbel, and boy do I love it!
Since I no longer have my original 198 Yds of Heaven shawlette, I’m making a new one for myself! This one is made out of Tosh Vingate, in Tart, and I will fight anybody that tries to get this one from me!
My Geodesic Cardigan (which I will never speak of again after today) is finally finished! It was truly the project from down below.
