WOYWW - 149 - Holy Moly!

Holy Moly  It's Wednesday and that means it's one of the most  exciting days to surf blogs.  If you don't know what I'm talking about go on over to Stamping Ground where it all begins, thanks to our leader, the fabulous and amazing Julia!

I am finally done with one of my baby blankets.
This blanket is knitted using seed stitch.
As for the desk - what can I say?  It's a mess.  I've been going through my craft closets and am not putting anything back until I decide it stays.  
Canvas, Mod Podge, what do you think that brown thing is?
It's a huge toilet paper roll (for circles), acrylic paint
Thank you ALL for your lovely support and well wishes.   I still get teary eyed thinking about my little Daisy dog.   Bless her soul.  The other day Katie (my other dog) was out in the backyard laying in the exact same spot where I found Daisy paralyzed.  It made my heart skip a beat.

I plan to visit desks that end in the same number as me.   I will also visit everyone who visits me (it helps when you leave your number!!).   After that I'll visit  as many as I can.  Although with my work schedule it may not be until the weekend.

Thanks for visiting.

Peace,
Kay

Baked French Toast - sooooo good!

I didn't realize it has been almost a week since I posted.
Time has gotten away from me.
Maybe I have too many things in the oven right now....
Here's one thing I had in the oven a few weekends ago.


Prepare this the night before and all you do is stick it in the oven and watch it bake!
You've heard it here before.  I love breakfast.
For those of you that like sweet things.
this one is for you!

1 stick butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon (or more if you like it)
chopped walnuts
Melt the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon together.  In a square pan, 
cover the bottom with the chopped walnuts.
Pour the brown sugar mixture on top of the nuts.

1 loaf french bread
6 eggs
1 1/2 cup milk

Cut the french bread into 1 - 1 1/2 inch slices, lay that on top of the mixture.
Beat the eggs and milk together.  Pour over the bread.
Cover and refrigerate over night.

Warm up the oven to 350 degrees.  Bake uncovered for about 30 - 40 minutes.
Cut and serve bottom side up. 
Yummy for your tummy!

Enjoy
Kay

Getting Inky and Having Fun

I thought I'd give you a sneak peek at what I worked on this past weekend. 
Artist Trading Cards (ATC)
I'm lovin' them.
Tiny works of art.


Do you notice something funky?
I didn't notice it until I was done.....
The background text is upside down!

Who said life is perfect?!?



Peace,
