Angel Food & Daisies!

Another Monday already?
I really shouldn't say that because I don't have Mondays.
I'm just trying to fit in .
A poser of sorts.

Anywho...
I hope everyone had a great weekend!
I was able to finish the upstairs with the exception of painting and trust me, that may be the most important part, so I can't do my "Big Blog Reveal" until it's finished finished.
I think your grandchildren will really enjoy it and by then appriciate the retro feel of the space :)

During one of my procrationation periods well deserved cleaning breaks I found this blog, Tillie Tulip.
She does the most beautiful crochet, and I fell in love with this granny daisy.

Umm, hello, how great is that!
So on my next "break" I sat down and started stitching and thought that I wanted to go with something like this,

But then I changed my mind and decided I want to go with something bright and fun instead of plain old beige.

I tried a green one and that didn't do a thing for me and I tried a blue which I love, but I don't wan't to completley poach Tillie's daisy, just replicate it.

So I think I'll do a yellow center, white petals and brights on the outside bordered in white.

I'll take a picture once I get a few together.

Thanks Tillie for the inspiration :)

Kay the other thing I made on one of my many breaks was angel food cake in a jelly jar!!

I'm not even kidding you.

Wendy bought an angel food cake mix but didn't want to do the whole tube pan hanging on a bottle business so I told her I would make it for her.

Then, while immersed in doing some research on Pinterest I came across a recipe for jelly jar angel food cake!!!

All you do is follow the directions on the box and then fill 16 

(I think next time I'll do 15) 

well sprayed with non stick, 8oz jelly jars, 1/4 of the way full, place on a cookie sheet and bake about 20 minutes!

Tadaaa!!! 

Imagine these at a potluck or picnic with a bowl of fresh strawberries and whipped cream!

Thanks i am baker!

I have to go do the dishes now.

Happy Monday!

Peas.
