Dinner tonight: ricotta, Parmesan, spinach, bell pepper, onion, egg and chicken basil sausage pie. Yum ;) I also made a small dutch apple pie. The dogs were sniffing the smells coming out of the kitchen so intently I swear they almost sniffed themselves inside out LOL Now continuing my cooking while at Vi's, anyone have a great simple recipe that uses cooked cod? I have some to use up in ...
Well, yesterday I was all excited to have gotten the frig into the house finally, but I woke toi a very sore left forearm.... it took a direct hit when I was wrestling the frig up the make shift ramp I built to make the project easier yesterday.... it was almost falling off the ramp when I got hit. I bruise slowly, but it started bruising today, isn't it pretty? GIve it a couple days it will be ...
I have not missed a single day of AEDM to date, I have been working on one BIG project instead of daily small projects. The kitchen is coming along nicely.... one day of sanding & priming, 2 days of painting, and 2 days so far of cutting and pasting have gotten me over half way done. The following pics are awful, but by the time I get home from work, the lighting is lousy, so the cabinet 1 pic is...
So this is the layout I came up with, please consider this my AEDM project update for today, it's going to be an on-going thing for the next week: You can't really see it in the drawings but the stars on the drawers are 3 colors, stars within stars sorta, and the other small areas on the cabinets hold paper mosaic spirals that might look something like this: Unless it gets too ...
I was up at 430am, don't ask me why... it was insane. Not only was I up, I was motivated so I scrubbed and primed the kitchen cabinets. Then I decided to do the dishes, since my dirty dishes experiment did not pay off. I was privately seeing if Karina would do her dishes before I broke down and did them. I had this crazy idea when she ran out of clean silverware it would dawn on her to wash them,...
This is the rough draft of 4x6 art card I am sending to little Noak Biorkman in my Xmas card, it is also my AEDM for today: Still have to do some touch up on it, but you get the general idea... I wasn't going to do a sun, but Keegan said I had to, because they make people happy, and Noah needs some happy. He is still so adorable some days... he is also doing a card, it looks a lot like mine...
I am up for a potty run, so posting this before returning to bed, (I had a rather rough afternoon). My AEDM project from Wed. Nov 4th: Another sun plaque- I am not quite sure why it is showing so much shading when scanned. I shade from underneath, visually in person it is really subdued, but the scanner seems to pick up more than shows on the surface. And my project for Thurs. Nov 5th: A ...
But I did get my AEDM piece done for Tues Nov 3rd, and here it is... A neutral colored Sun Plaque. (Approx 5 1/2"x12", acrylics on pine) I had to work VI today at the last minute so I painted most if it there, finished it when I got home but had to wait for the paint to try enough to slide it onto the scanner. Not being able to close the scanner tight made the color a tad off but it is ...
Ramie called and told me to be sure to enter the Zazzle binder cookbook cover contest, so I asked her when it ended...(tonight of course at 1159pm). It sounded fun so I went on to check out the rules, and put my painting away to work on it instead. I could not find size requirements so I set my screen to the size of a binder dimensions and got to work on it. I have no special software so I spent ...
But here it is... my November 1st AEDM artistic accomplishment: I thought I was going to have to beat the heck out of my printer/scanner...it would NOT find the scanning software, even after 3 restarts...gawd it was annoying. Luckily, me drinking 2 glasses of wine seemed to help ;) Night all, more art sometime tomorrow, I already have an idea....yay!
