I still have quite a ways to go with my rotation on Greek (and Tiny Rose Garden is next) so I hope to have one up by the end of the day tomorrow before I'm off to San Francisco again to stalk... err... keep Boyfriend company.
In other news, I wanted to tell you all the I've started another blog. It's a cooking blog! I thought about posting some photos and recipes here, but I didn't want to do that for anyone who is only interested in stitching, and nothing else. SOOOOO I started a whole new blog. Feel free to follow it - I don't mind one bit! It's just full of recipes, or my takes on recipes, and step by step instructions with pictures. I also try to include caloric values and serving sizes for those of us watching our waistlines (like me!). It's called Cooking by Candlelight and I hope to be adding to it a lot. Also, per Joyce's recommendation, I do a post per recipe (so sometimes multiple posts in a day) to make recipes more searchable. Hope you guys like it! My focus is healthy, but delicious, cooking. Who says healthy food has to taste like cardboard?
Happy stitching everyone - hope to be back tomorrow!
