Einkorn is a lovely, softer grain that works really well in cookies and brownies. It is a bit better on the gut, so you may be able to digest it if you are sensitive to wheat (it is not gluten-free). This recipe is for double chocolate cookies that have cocoa powder, as well as dark chocolate chunks. I get mine from Thrive Market because they are sweetened with coconut sugar. I also added freeze-dried raspberries that I get HERE. Raspberry and chocolate are best friends! ☺️ I ... View the Post
Alice in Wonderland Card in Box
I have loved Alice in Wonderland since I was a kid. I think I would probably fit in better in that world. 😂 This "blast from the past" is some digital paper that I had purchased from Echo Park. The designs are whimsical and happy. I loved making this card and coordinating gift box in the cheerful blue theme. I'm not sure if they still sell it, but you could create something similar with other design papers. Embossing folders are such an easy way to add texture and design to simple ... View the Post
My New World of Sourdough! & VIDEO
I have baked hundreds upon hundreds of loaves of bread, but for some reason sourdough always scared me. I have no idea why! 😂 I think it may have to do with the fact that I tend to kill living plants, so why would sourdough be safe from me! After watching countless how-to videos, I finally landed on these cookbooks. They did not disappoint! Elaine's method is easy, and I had success creating my starter on the first try. I have made several loaves since, and they have all been a success. I ... View the Post
Oil Pastel Impressionistic Florals & VIDEO
The thing that I love about impressionism is that sometimes you just want the idea of a thing. The texture and colors are the take away. Don't get me wrong, I love amazing realistic paintings. Wow! I am not there yet as an artist, and I'm okay with that. I am enjoying the process. Today, I have used Canson Graduate toned paper and taped it off with washi. I am mostly using Mungyo Gallery (with an Artecho and Sennelier thrown in). I love the idea of gray leaves (gray and pink remind of the dear ... View the Post
Mixed Media Ship on the Ocean with Soho Pad
This seascape mixed media painting was done in 2024. It was just a quick watercolor, ink, and gouache ship on an ocean, but these creative exercises are great for getting familiar with your art supplies and exercising your brain! 🧠 As someone who is dealing with chronic conditions, any chance to create for just fun is a blessing. Sometimes, doing quick art journal paintings can also inspire another project. I hope that you enjoy your supplies! I used the Soho oil pastel pad. I have a few ... View the Post
The Useful Pile of Shredded Zucchini
As we start fall and say goodbye to summer, the mighty zucchini can be preserved for the winter and spring. It is a vegetable that can easily be integrated into a variety of recipes. Instead of trying to dream up fourteen different zucchini dinners, I like to shred it. Once shredded, zucchini becomes far more cooperative. It can quietly disappear into breads, muffins, pancakes, fritters, casseroles, soups, and all sorts of other things. I use my Cosori dehydrator and then pop the dehydrated ... View the Post
