Happy New Year!
Whew! What a whirlwind. Holidays…I’m on the fence about them. Seriously.
So, we’ve had company for a while, and we’ve been unpacking, and of course there was Christmas and New Years and my kid’s 5th birthday and my birthday and Thanksgiving…I’m pretty sure it’s naptime.
Anyway, I got this month’s issue of Everyday Food at the grocery store, and there was the easiest little recipe for cream puffs! I seriously love cream puffs. So I made them. I didn’t have the ingredients for the filling, or for pastry cream, so I just made a box of vanilla pudding and piped that inside. YUM!
Everyone should try this recipe. SO EASY.
I also made eclairs! (Same recipe, but instead of piping the dough into round blobs, you pipe rectangles…too easy.
I also unpacked almost all the fabric bins and organized all my fabric. In the bins, it was all by fabric line…but I’m not really into using pieces of a line all together anymore, so by color is going to allow me to mix and match a little easier. Pretty eye opening to see all the fabric I own…a little overboard, really. It was much easier to be in denial of my hoarding when I had the majority of my ‘collection’ in bins in the garage.

Bins unloaded, colors sorted:
Mostly put away…still a few colors to go:
It’s awesome to have such easy access to all my fabric!
