Happy Sunday…er- Monday!

I was pretty busy this weekend. I worked on a Too-Cute Clutch (more to come later when the pin I plan on buying is delivered,) I hemmed pants, perfected the Garter Stitch (so not whompy-jawed like the first time I tried it,) cooked, and was even able to go walking both days with Daddy at a local park that has a beautiful trail.
Sunday, I cooked a tasty breakfast. Wanted pancakes so I used a simple recipe and voila- no fake n’ bake- these were from scratch!

***********************************************************
Recipe:

1.5 C sifted flour
3.5 sp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 T white sugar
1.25 C milk
1 egg
3 T melted butter

Mix dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl, make a well in the middle, add wet ingredients, stir until just incorporated and then cook as usual.

Yields: I was able to make 5 good sized pancakes. 2 for me, 3 for daddy.

*************************************************************

The two pairs of pants I hemmed, I’m ashamed to admit have had forever and never worn because they were made for people of average height and not offered in my height bracket. Look at the before and after- how hysterical are my short stumpy legs?! *snort*
Anywho- I was tempted to REtry hemming jeans off of a Pinterest post I favorited and I must say, I’m sold on it. These jeans are perfect for wearing with wedges. And as you’ll see below, so are the white linen pants.








Have a great rest of the week. I’ll try to post some more during the week!
Hugs,
A.
