Soft Tree Softies ... Intres ... Moments

O ... M ... G. These beautiful trees were found as I searched google for Christmas Trees.

Maria is a Spanish artist who creates these magic works of art and she has an etsy store here.

Her working name 'Intres' means moments in Spanish. If you think the Trees are gorgeous, wait till you see the houses and towers and people and critters!



 






 





These are so beautiful ...

Kitchen Delights and Kitty Brights ...


Yay for summer ... in my house we like to cook light and summer is the season for fish and salad. We can't seem to get enough and it's amazing how the same four basic ingredients can be so wholly changed with a few extra herbs and spices ...

Last night it was a throw together - I had meant to have a Thai Salad but we didn't go shopping so with the fish Pete brought home I julienned some potatoes and after frying them up I doused them with a sprinkle of lime and chilli salt.

The fish was pan fried with more lime and some Ketjap Manis. I used baby roma tomatoes and chunks of coriander in the salad. After sprinkling with ground coriander I mixed up some olive oil, sweet chilli, lemon juice and salt and poured that over.

YUMMO

We had a garage sale last weekend and my neighbour and friend Liz popped over and we were discussing wool. She recently started felting and loves it. I happened to have a few balls of wool that she could no longer get and to show her gratitude she made Erin a felt Kitty like the others she has been making.



B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L
The photos really don't do this kitty justice

She makes Babushkas, Retro Kitty Cats and she brought over a bag with a beautiful wrap and hat and some felt slippers she has made.

I'm trying to get her onto Etsy because her stuff is that great

New kicks and a dragon ...

Now I was out and about with my man when I saw these kicks and decided they were coming home with me ... at the moment they are tucked away on lay by (thank you retail) but another week and they'll be on my happy little feet.



Last night I knocked up this wee dragon for a friend ... I had promised her something to do with Dragons but she wont wear hair clips ... or lace up corsets ... so I compromised ... what do you think?

Deck the Halls ...

I made some little stars for the tree and they are just too cute ... I'll put up a pattern if anyone is interested to know how these are put together ... you can knock one up in no time!
