In the last week I have been tagged for more tags than I can count on one hand, lol! And I was tagged for this one THREE TIMES!
I was tagged by Lady Jess, then Hannah, then Caroline.
The rules: go into your 6th folder and select the 6th photo. This picture is from sooooo long ago, back when I had just gotten my Kodak point-n-shoot.

Anyways, I put up another poll, and would appreciate it if you would take 5 seconds from your already busy day to vote on some poll that doesn't even matter.
The End.

ebelskiver's
I know, you're going "What is an ebelskiver?!?!?!?" Well, ebelskiver's are these yummy pancake puff things. We saw the Williams Sonoma pan, but it was way to expensive. Mom thought Bed Bath and Beyond might have one, so she and Dad went there one day. They got two ebelskiver pans for less than one WS pan would have cost! We love these puffy pancakes now. They are so easy, and soooo yummy! We have put fresh cherries, chocolate chips, and banana slices in the middle. They were all very yummy.
these are chocolate chip ones.
these are chocolate chip ones.
these pictures were taken of ebelskiver's i made. it was my first time making them. mom's look prettier. :)
handmade gifts
A dear friend of mine celebrated her 15th birthday in May. Her younger sister planned a surprise party for her. It was so sweet, and very fun! She had no idea, and when she walked in the door thought "The house looks pretty." Then we all jumped out and yelled "SURPRISE!" She set her bags down and was like "Hiii." It was funny. :D Anyways, this is what I made her.
The blue zipper pouch is made of 100% cotton; the outside (blue) fabric and the lining (white) both came from the remnant bin at Joann's. I used a 7in. white zipper, and some white pom-pom trim. I used the instructions in Bend the Rules Sewing. I love that book!
The pink ipod case I made from scraps; the outside is 100% cotton, a fat quarter, and the lining is 100% cotton (pink) flannel (from the remnant bin as well). I used Velcro squares to close it, and added a vintage blue button for decoration. I didn't use a pattern, just made my own. It turned out smaller than I wanted it, only big enough for her nano, and not ear buds. Next time I will do it larger.
Then I made some simple pink earrings. I think they turned out quite pretty!

princess hope
i imagine green fields, it being autumn again. a sweet four year old girl, with bare feet and blond hair. a pretty pink princess dress. blue sky. all the colors making a beautiful photo; green, pink, gold, blue. taking photos of princess hope. i can't wait.
Last night Andi's littlest girlie, Hope, wore a pink princess dress to prayer meeting. Hence, my thoughts turned to taking pictures of her in the fall.
