Neckwarmer/cowls - new patterns

Pin It
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! New Year is around the corner and time just flies by. Do you make New Year resolutions? I don't as I can never stick to them. However, I feel that I should seriously make some changes here and there. I have to pay more attention to my blog, I need to cook and eat more healthy foods, exercise more frequently, try to keep the house more organized... the list goes on and on but don't know if I could make these all happen.

Anyway, winter has come and I have added a couple of new patterns in my shops for these gorgeous neckwarmers/cowls. The first one in the photo above is a chunky cowl fastened with buttons and the other one is a lacy capelet which can be tightened around the neck with a string and includes the pattern for an optional flower brooch. You can find these patterns here, here and here.

I wish I could be more regular in my blogging next year. I wish I could be more productive next year.

♥ ♥ I wish you all a terrific 2013!♥ ♥

Cinnamon buns and cute buns

Pin It

After a very long time I made cinnamon buns last night. I love baking breads and buns but after a few failed attempts I stopped baking breads all together. Also yeast is not easily available here. Even if one or two stores have them they are always very old stuff and the dough never raises properly. This time my husband bought yeast from a store which also has a bakery and the yeast was really good. I made some French bread the other day and it came out beautifully, but unfortunately I couldn't take any pictures.

I love cinnamon buns and have made them a couple of times before. This time I used the recipe from here. I made them in 2 batches, one in a round pan and another in a small square pan and the whole house was smelling divine. I made them late in the evening, so had to wait until morning to take pictuers. But by then only one roll was left from the round pan and the top of one in the square pan was pulled out by the impatient kid. I had to pull the pan away from him to save the rest for my photographs.   

Our cute buns have grown up a lot.
Meal time

Nap time.
They look so cute when they sleep. They always sleep together piled up one on top of the other.

Thank you so much for all the lovely comments you leave here, thanks for following me and thanks for stopping by.
Have a happy weekend!
