My muse & TV dinners

She has returned and has slapped me upside the head.  She is finally letting me work on an idea I've had for a while now but is forcing me to do it digitally which is both an added frustration and bonus. :)  You see, I have some rather Luddite tendencies in that I much prefer old ways of doing things, like writing actual letters, drawing with a real pen on real paper, and making my lists in a notebook in my purse, that sort of thing.  For this particular project, though, digital is the better way to go and I am very happy with the results so far.

I'm keeping what I am up to a secret for now, though. :) I'm just mean like that. ;)

In the meantime, did you know I have a fascination with old-fashioned TV dinners?  Not to eat.  Yuck.  No.  But the visual of an old-time TV dinner in an aluminum tray.  I can't explain why but they always make me squee with delight.  :)

This is an ATC I made a while back in honor of my unfounded love:



And here are a few things on my wish list:

TV Dinner Metal Serving Tray

TV Dinner Gumballs

TV Dinner ceramic plates

TV Dinner Magnet

This wallet is no longer available on Etsy but I found this picture of it here. :)

I am so tempted to buy these and make my own. :)

New Apron

Still alive and still cooking A LOT!  The food blog has really taken off which isn't leaving much room for much else.  I really need to get crafty some time soon. But, I did recently find some time to design myself a brand new apron! Here's a more detailed image of my design: At least I am finding ways to combine my 2 passions! :)

Mmm, mmm, good!

There has really been nothing remarkable going on the past few weeks.  I've made a bunch of yummy food but by the time I am done cooking it, I am so excited to eat it that I forget to take pictures until I am putting away leftovers. :P  This is the only meal that made it and it's probably the most boring visually.  LOL  It was absolutely delicious, though!  I present to you roasted tomato soup and grilled ham & cheese on homemade bread!  I am not a huge fan of soup and never have been.  Tomato soup is one of the few I enjoy because it is creamy and smooth and doesn't look predigested to me.  Now that I have had this, I will never, ever be able to eat canned tomato soup again.  Ever. You can find the recipe for the soup here.   I will also be adding the Pumpkin and Mushroom Lasagna, Shepherd's Pie, and Cherry Bread recipes soon.  Even though the temps are still in the 80's (upper 20's celsius) here in Atlanta, I ...

Sashi Goes On Vacation

I decided I really needed a vacation yesterday so I took a quick trip around the world and got some nice locals to snap pictures of me here and there.  I decided if I was going to go on a trip, I would go in style so I took off in a stretch limo.*  It had a bed covered with kittens for napping between stops, a full stocked bacon bar, and the entire Murder, She Wrote series in the DVD player.  I was set! pic source My first stop was to check out the nightlife in New York City.  Times Square was amazing and I met the nicest man who demanded all my money.  I offered him bacon instead and he was happy enough to take this pic for me. pic source I then skedaddled over to San Francisco to see if the sisters from Charmed were home but they must have been out fighting demons.  I even looked for them at one of their favorite hangouts. pic source From there I bounced down to Brazil and met a wonderful group of kids.  Their teache...
