Crafts & Stuff...

[Raina]

For our wedding we're thinking about various centerpiece arrangements for the table. It's a fall wedding. Candles have to be in glass. The only thing I want to do for sure is carve out the tops of tiny little pumpkins and put tea lights in them. Ideas are welcome!

I do a lot of needlework when I can find the time. It calms me down and I love to me really elaborate multi-hundred hour pieces. Call me crazy, but I find it to be something nice to do for myself.

I'm more of a baker than a crafter.
I've always thought I'd find something to do - but never did.

I just bake stuff when my hands are itching to do something.

I'm making an apple pie for a friend's birthday next weekend. His wife was gonna get him one from the supermarket since she can't cook to save her life but I hate store bought apple pie so I figured I'd make one from scratch. I guess that will have to be my cheat night. LOL

Thank goodness I'm making the pie to take to someone else's house...pies are my favorite desert and I don't need that hanging around here tempting me.

Will the pickled jalapenos turn out to be hot like the ones at the store or like pickles made out of jalapenos -- kind of sweet but tangy & not overly spicy?? The reason I'm asking is I had the pickle kind of jalapenos at a restaurant & they were soooo darn good I'd love to make them myself...

The ground rock in the back ground,
