Sewing Book Rave
Pin It Now!
I must say that I owe much of my love of sewing
to Amy Butler.
It was seeing her gorgeous fabric prints and patterns that really drove me to learn to sew.
I recently purchased her book One Yard Wonders and can not say
enough great things about it!
It comes with 101 sewing patterns and great ideas to spivy up your home, all with color photos using her famous fabrics. Love.
Watch out for future posts of my experiences with her patterns and some pictures!
I purchased my copy from Amazon.

Crock Pot Vegetarian Lasagna Recipe
Pin It Now!
This recipe is super yummy - and very easy!
And if you follow Weight Watchers each serving is only 9 points. Yay!
In a large skillet mix mushrooms, onion and garlic. Sautee. Stir in tomatoes and tomato sauce, salt, oregano, basil and red pepper flakes. Simmer 5 minutes. In a small bowl mix 1 cup mozzarella cheese and ricotta cheese. Spoon 1/2 tomato mixture into your slow cooker. Break 3 lasagna sheets in half and arrange over tomato mixture. top with half ricotta mixture. Repeat, creating layers. Finish with last 1/3 of tomato mixture. Add parmesan cheese and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, sprinkle over lasagna. Let sit about 10 minutes to firm up. Beef or ground turkey can be added, too. I chose not to and it still turned out great. |

Tonight is the premiere of the new show Portlandia.
I can't wait to see how Portland is portrayed.
This is supposed to be a sketch comedy about two locals, Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein, living life in bridgetown. You'll have to check it out!
Portlandia looks hilarious!
