We sometimes have "theme" dinners.  Or "countries" dinners.  It's moussaka & baklava.  So very yummy!  I pretty much throw in a bunch of stuff in the moussaka.  It was originally a vegie-only (apart from the eggs, of course), but my hubby is a meat-man, so it's got ground beef...but, oh laaaa it's good!!



a slice of it (torn apart by greedy house-people ):



and the baklava:



I used Key Lime honey for the baklava..and it tastes sooooo good!!

I sooooo that!  I'm a big House fan (so happy to have the season back on!)..I think Hugh Laurie is sexy! 

(edit) I recognized him right off..that's why I clicked on your post..so awesome job!

 

I love it!!  I Totoro a lot!!  I'm so jealous!

i mostly said it for your behalf batgirl - as long as i can't see INTO their mouth (eww!!), i don't mind a bit of mess!

linda, i might have read it here even! i was hanging around in the machine embroidery boards a bit too!


stefferoni, what's the thread cassette that your SE270D has? i've totally been checking out free patterns, and stuff, and now that i have the PE Design Lite, i can download them and use them!

and yep, .pes format! i'm scared to try rehooping too.... there's a lace design that i want to embroider SO BAD, but the women at the brother dealer said lace is the hardest to rehoop...

this is the thread cassette I'm talking about:



I do have about 4,000+ designs I've collected through the years, though.    That involves a LOT of online hours looking for freebies & some I've bought, too.  I don't have the PE Design, but Embird probably works the same as that (though Embird supports other format, too, in case I decided to buy a non-Brother one).

I have never done lace!  Frankly, I'm rather intimidated by it...wait are you talking about those free-standing lace bowls & whatnot??

it!!  I first saw the little pic..and I thought you were standing on rocks (I'm having a hard time loading today, my pc's acting up..and hope I'm not being redundant, if someone else already mentioned it in posts before mine)..I'm in awe here..it's great!

I'll have to echo everyone here..I it! 

hello, all!

been in the purse/bag/totes/backpack zone the past month..i'm usually pretty happy with the stuff i make..but these 2..ugh i'm not very happy with. 

the pink & green one:  the flower i made, i dorked it up...i usually just cut flower shapes, layer & sew a button or beads on..buuut this time, i thought i'd make a cherry blossom shape w/interfacing.  oh, pfffft that didn't work out too well...


the other one, s'posed to be a triangular-shaped backpack (tapers on top) buuuut it's almost square & the envelope flap looks too small!!    i'm s'posed to deliver this tomorrow (the lady who wants it is going taking it on a Eurotrip!)   plus, i usually make the flap a bit bigger but her she said she wanted just a "barely there" flap..which i didn't agree with..but since i "custom order", i guess i couldn't sit there & argue with her.

anyhoooo, thoughts??  anything i could've/should've done to make #2 better (for future reference)

these others i'm not too unhappy about...

i soooooo muches!!  you are my new favorite to-stalk crochet chick!! 

*this rocks* 

(edit) PS. so wisted!

*jigging* *cartwheeling* *shaking my heiny* 

i this site bunches!!  i have my yearly subscription reminder in my berry so i don't forget when it's up!  thanks leah, you succulent peach, you! 

i so the quirk board!  you have inspired me..i will be redestroying my sewing room this thursday (we're having a break from the hot, humid weather-so i can open the house without A/C-which means painting time!!).  would you mind, oh, so terribly, if i borrowed your idea? i have a roll of cork i got from michael's here hmm about 3 yrs ago, i think..i swore i would do something with it..but has gathered dustbunnies.
