Hi everyone!
Pictures to come of the blanket by the end of the month!
So far link is getting pieced.
The design is of 8bit 1986 link holding the triforce.
So here's a picture of Sasha all comfy with our project. She loves to participate in my projects. My friend who's getting this is very excited. Can't wait to show her : )

Cauliflower Rice
Hi everyone!
Attempted to make cauliflower rice for the first time today. I'd like to say it went very well.
Ingredients & utensils:
1 cauliflower
Dash garlic powder
1-2tbs olive oil
Grater or food processor
Frying pan or pot
Wooden spoon
Knife
Cut up your cauliflower in pieces you can hold and handle easily if you plan to use a grater and smaller if you plan to use the food processor.
Grate/process so it looks like little grains of rice.
Then in the pan or pot heat the oil and and add the cauliflower and sauté.
Just sauté enough so it's tender and season with garlic powder ( to your taste)
Then done!
It's really simple to do and goes well with dishes with sauces. Also good if you're trying to cut some carbs.
I had mine with beef and eggplant that I marinated in some ready made bulgogi marinade. I can tell you ill definitely make it again!
Hope you give it a try : )

Portal granny square blanket design
Hi everyone
I worked on this the other day.
I hope to make it in the future.
It's a bad picture but it works
Go ahead give it a try
Can't make money off a pattern like this since its a copy written item/image from steam but doesn't mean I can't share for FREE
If you have any questions about the graph feel free to ask also if you want a blanket made I take commissions
Have a great weekend everyone!

Scarf Pattern
Hi Everyone!
So I have way too many projects in the works....it's like project attention deficit disorder....or as I call it " I'm tired of staring at this color...oh let's work with this now!"
I started this scarf it's two colors which I'm shocked I'm doing because I'm downright awful at intarsia.
So it's just a simple rib patter k2 p2
These pictures show the front and back.
You should give it a try ^^

Baby Blanket Finished!
Hi Everyone,
Sooooo after months of working on this.....and many breaks. I have finished the baby blanket for my cousin. His son was born a month ago. So this blanket will be making the long trip to Brazil.
I believe the pattern is using Katherine's Wheel.
It's one giant piece and I think it's dubbed the yarn eater blanket.
I got the pattern off of youtube. If anyone is interested in this pattern I will gladly put up the link for you guys. The lady that did it has some wonderful work. She's fantastic!
I'm just so excited it's done! Sasha is very sad to see it go....she's been eyeing it for months hoping she'd get it, poor puppy. She was sad with the last blanket I made and when my friend came over and got it for her birthday....the puppy would NOT let it go, it was like watching non violent protest she just laid on it and stared at my friend. Took some coaxing to get her to stop.

Homemade steak sandwich
Hi Everyone!
The other day I made steak sandwiches....I love them!
Ingredients are:
Sub buns
Steak ( tenderized by beating with a mallet tenderizer and cut into strips to fit the sandwich I try for 1 1/2 thick in width or so)
Provolone cheese 2-3 slices per sandwich
Butter
Bell pepper ( any color)
Red onions
Mayonaisse
Tooth picks
Foil
Preheat your oven to about 400 degrees
Melt butter in a pan and cook your steak pieces. Afterwards or before which ever step you want to do first is slice thin pieces of red onion and bell pepper sauté until tender ( I sauté using butter for this)
Assembly:
Open up the sub bun layer in some mayonnaise put salt and pepper to your taste. Put in the onion and pepper as much as you like. Add the strips of steak layer with the cheese slices. I like to cut the slices in half then neatly later them kind of helps it from oozing out of the sandwich.
Place bun on top put tooth picks in to hold everything in place and wrap in foil. Bake for 10-15 minutes.
It will come out ooey gooey with cheese and the bread will be lightly toasted. Yum!
Serve with chips or fries.
Any steak meat will do for this as long as you tenderize it. You don't specifically have to get phillysteak cuts...I know I sure don't.
Also horse radish sauce is awesome in this.
