Nothing says hello winter like a good pot pie. And I am sucker for this combo. It is such a simple and easy meal, but kinda makes it look like your domestic goddess. My kind of meal.
Until next time.
This is one of my all time favourite winter soups, The recipe is from a dear friend of mine. It is amazingly simple, delicious and pretty darn good for you too.
INGREDIENTS //
Half a head of Cauliflower
A big bunch of silver beet
( I also added a bag of spinach that I needed to use up )
One white onion
4 cloves of garlic
Three potatoes
Oil
Salt and Pepper
Veggie Stock
Turmeric Powder
Curry Powder
Garam Masala Powder
Water
Chuck a tablespoon of oil in a soup pot and throw in the chopped onion and garlic. Sautee those suckers. Roughly chop up the cauliflower, silver beet and potatoes, chuck them in as well. Mix everything in and add the veggie stock, and the spices…..I usually put a tablespoon of curry powder and a teaspoon of the others….Then pour the water in until everything is nearly covered. Let is simmer away until everything is cooked. Using a ‘wizz stick” get all those lumps out. Season that sucker and add more of the spices if needed. Serve with unsweetened yoghurt and chopped coriander. YUM.
Until next time.
We, like most, live in a rental. So I am always looking for temporary and affordable options to make the place our own. I have been obsessed over the spotted wall for a while now, and finally got around to doing it. It is one of the easiest, and pretty cheap DIYS.
YOU WILL NEED //
A pack of quik stik dots, colour of your choice : I got mine from Warehouse Stationary
Blue-tack
Personally I like the more random patterned effect and spaced out. So I just got on a ladder and started blue-tacking my dots to the wall! You can do it however works for you. Simple, easy, affordable and easily removed!
Perfect.
Until next time.
This was incredibly fun to make.
I was commissioned to make a backdrop for a photo shoot and this is the result…
A flower wall!
You will need //
150 + Artificial flowers
Wire snips
Hot Glue
Artificial ‘vines’
( I sourced from a wholesaler, but you can find these at your local emporium )
Pull off all the leaves from ‘vine’ , A lot of them they pop on and off, so you can attach other flowers of leaves there. I did mine in a Ombre effect, using yellows, to orange to pink to white.
Begin to attach flowers, weaving into the ‘vine’ and hot gluing when necessary.
Keep going! It takes a while, but is worth it!
Happy making!
Until next time.
