Super Saturday

There. I decorated for Halloween. Ha! I couldn't resist this little pie pumpkin. Isn't he adorable? I assume you can make a pie from it, right? I actually want to make pumpkin soup. I'll keep him around for a while then hack him up for cooking purposes.

I finally found these Artisan lettuces. Yum. I like fancy lettuces. Remember when it used to be just iceberg? I ate an entire head of iceberg lettuce once when I was a teenager. Just plain. I munched on it like an apple.

Found these big fresh raspberries too. I keep sneaking in the fridge to eat them. So much for using them for anything else.

 And kale. I love kale. Have you ever made kale chips? I love those things.

I also tried my hand at homemade egg noodles. I thought they would be good with chicken paprikash. I'm not sure why I've never made chicken paprikash, but I will definitely make it again. Delicious.

I used to walk into my grandmothers house and see noodles drying like this. I heard a few "what's up with the noodles on the chairs?" from my crew. I like to keep them on their toes.

Dumped my orange scraps on the desk and decided to make a quilt block for our guild's BOM. The theme is Halloween and the block is quilter's choice.

A pumpkin emerged eventually. I'm sure I made the background piecing harder than it should have been, but that's how I roll. I'm off to Jo-Ann's big coupon sale where they put everything on sale and the coupons therefore do not work. : ) Whatever. It beats doing laundry.

  2. Cute funny post! Love your simple decorating, and kale, and the noodles, and your paper-pieced pumpkin - try saying that five times fast! Joann's is very annoying like that, in my opinion. But I'll keep going anyway :-)

  3. Wow. I am so impressed that you keep your scraps separated by color. Mine are all dumped in big ol boxes although I hope someday to get them organized.

    Kale chips ~Ewww! I'll have to take your word on those. Hated kale as a kid.
