The Joy of Cooking and Baking in my New Kitchen
…with more storage and counter space
I’m still putting away supplies, dishes and accessories from our old kitchen but much of it was given away, donated to a thrift shop or thrown away. We have a second kitchen in the basement and some of the supplies that we don’t use every day will stay down there until we need them.
On Sunday I had an itch to cook and bake. As many of you know, my husband does most of the cooking in this house. He gets so much pleasure working in the kitchen and now in his new space his pleasure has doubled.
I love making soup and made a large pot of chicken vegetable soup. While the soup simmered I made a batch of lemon cranberry muffins. When I was gathering up supplies for the kitchen I came across a recipe that my sister, Chris, typed up for me awhile ago.
Both recipes were delicious and we enjoyed them for the next three days and there is still enough soup left over for another meal.




Day 21 – Collage and Mark Making
…coloured circles and black and white ink
I stayed up late last night working on this piece and finished it when I got back from baking at the Inn and taking my three woven pieces to the art gallery.

Day 16 – Two More Pieces
…finished just in time to enter in the next members show at WAAC
In February the members show at the Women’s Art Association of Canada is titled Monochrome Moments. After making the smaller piece on Monday evening, I decided to make two larger pieces for the show yesterday. Weaving on canvas is a lot of fun.


Both these pieces are 12 x 12 x 2 inches.
