Project 365 - Week 10

I'm still going strong with my picture a day "journal." I must admit to cheating a little bit though. Sometimes I take a few pictures on the same day (especially to make up for cloudy bad lighting day.) On those days I take pictures of common occurrences at our house, like dirty dishes or toys all over the floor.

It does take a lot more time than I thought it would, not in the picture taking, but in the photo editing, and watermarking of the images. Not to mention uploading and then adding captions and blogging about it! I love it though, it has been fun capturing our daily lives through a lens.

I know there are a lot of pictures of the doll quilt this week, but that is what I was trying to finish up. My favorite image this week is the doll quilt I received from my partner.

See those little black frames? I'm making something super cute fro my sewing room. I'm almost done with it so I'll be showing it to you soon.

Slice of Paradise

I made this yummy cake for my NEW 6 year old. {I can't believe I have a 6 year old, that makes me sound old... but at least I'm still be mistaken for one of my YW (12-18 year old girls)}

This cake is awesome! So light and fruity with it's strawberry-kiwi lime goodness, I could almost eat the whole thing myself.

You can find the recipe here from Pillsbury. I changed it up a bit just to keep it looking more like a cake. I have also made it just like in the recipe and also in a trifle bowl. It's super easy and always a crowd pleaser. I may just have to make it again for Easter dinner next week.

- I love that little iron I found at the thrift store.
- I love my new red and teal dishes I got from Target.
- ... and yes I love the girl in the red sweat shirt!
