    The goody is stuff I throw together lol. I cook like my grandmother, use what you have. 3 c flour 3teas BP, 1/4 teas soda, 1c brown sugar, 3 eggs, 1/2 stick butter, dissolved in some milk. 1/8 c safflower oil,couple handful raisins, half tub sour cream 1/4 cup of maple syrup that I had made some days ago.....(maple syrup...one c brown sugar 1/4 water, dissolve well and let simmer 5 min. until thick add maple flavour)

    I just throw it together, when you mix it all up if you see you need more liquid just add some more milk, simple things are the best....bake 350 for 45 min or an hour depending on your oven. I always line the pan with parchment paper.

    ok back to fun stuff, I have totally cleaned and organized my private room lol.

    That's a great way to cook, use up that stuff that ends up just sitting around taking up space.

    I decided I really like that cream star in the middle of all that color. I took the first tester apart and was able to save all the flower swatches. Here are four blocks, they finish at 13.5. I am just sorry that they are not cut precisely. That is one of the reason I really don't buy this way. I would have re-cut them but then I would loose a lot. Well, anyway, as I finish a block and if it's off a bit, I just add a scrap to that side and it will all come out in the wash lol.

    Now here is what is happening. Remember when I just had the squares on the board and they looked so good? Well I haven't lost that effect. When four blocks meet, it make a four patch and where the star point meet, two of the other fabrics come together. The star seems to have a different look depending which fabric surrounds it. I like all this and to think that this was just another diversion lol.

    I will make a few more blocks today, light and dark and see how they look with just the darks together and maybe I can have another arrangement.

    I'm currently working on this one using el gallo reds & blacks with a white background. It's pretty cute!
