Well good morning everyone. i have been busy creating lovely scrap layouts while at the beach, so thought it was time i got back to my blog and shared them with you.
Life keeps me busy but back to the lists today. I find too many distractions without my lists and i get a whole lot more done if i have to cross things off. So far today, not much has happened but i plan to change that.

good morning all. It's been a few days as i have been busy. I have to say, when i stop writing or reading the lists i get a lot less done. I am now on top of most of the sewing and have a pot of bucket soup made so hope to have time to get loose in the craft room at long last. A wet weekend coming up so just perfect for getting things done in there. It is now a mess again so back to tidy up before i can start creating.
for inspiration to get me moving i have a demo of craft stuff coming up end of June so need to make up some of my workshops so i have some of our latest things to show the ladies. Here is one i invented myself. its a cd cover and wedding card for those of us who like to take photos at friends weddings and then give them the disk.

i used a photo of the bride and groom and had the disk printed with their photo as well.

Hello, been a busy week so haven't got back to this. the lists are still working to an extent but only when i am home. Today i have decided to have the day to tidy up and play in my scrap room. 
With our catalogue changing i have to find all the feral products and separate them and mark all the stuff i have in the new book so i don't accidentally re order it. Other than a bit of exercise and my physio exercises, i plan on cooking a yummy dinner of eggplant rissoles, with pasta sauce on top, mashed spuds and some lovely fresh green beans and carrots with garlic, onion and basil. 
Sounds like the only thing missing is chocolate. hmmm. i think a trip up the shop needs to go on today's list.

Eggplant rissole Recipe   -   this makes quite a few but can be halved.




2 large eggplants - wash and diced 
boil in large pot of salted water till soft, about 10 minutes or so.


Drain well in a colander over the pot and leave for at least half hour or so giving a good shake to get rid of as much water as you can. i press on it with a potato masher to drain it better.
Add - 1/4 finely diced onion
about 1/2 cup of finely grated parmesan cheese
S & P
a handful of freshly chopped basil if you have it. i wash and freeze mine in summer so i can use it all year round or you can get that stuff in a tube or pesto and just add perhaps 2 tbsp.
1 egg
about a cup of breadcrumbs and mix well.
i then put mine in the fridge and leave it for half hour or longer to help it become thicker, so the patties stick together, only if needed.


heat a little olive oil in the frypan.
using a dessert spoon full shape patties into rounds, flatten and fry both sides till brown.
drain on paper towel and keep warm.
serve with a cooked pasta sauce.
 i add a handful of mince to mine but can be vegetarian if you like.
serve with mashed spuds and a green vege of your choice.




great leftover for the next day and had on a sandwich with cheese and baby spinach and toasted.

yesterday's training day master class was so much fun, so for all those interested in a peek, here it is.

All of the products are from Kaszazz's brand new catalogue and i am just loving it. Anyone want a catalogue please let me know.

              I had a great mother's day, got very spoilt and had a lovely lunch out, no cooking all day and i have just enough room for wine and chocolates, and hope you all had a great day too.

back to the lists and getting something done around here and the scrap room tidy again!

                                        

had a great training day. this is my comp entry. got 2nd.

Really busy day yesterday and 10 out of 14 off my list so its still working well. I might just give myself mother's day off. A day of scrapbooking today at our team training day with lots of new products and a brand new book of stuff to look at and figure out how to get it all!!! Well, ok just half the book then.
I will post my entry in today's competition when i get home. As for the scrap room, well it has only got messier while i packed my gear so maybe Monday is looking good for that tidy up. 

good morning all. i love Friday's. My photography class on today so lots to do.
My lists seem to be keeping me so motivated that i wrote today's list last night so i am off to a good start.

I need to pack for scrap training day tomorrow so the scrap room could get a bit of a tidy up. That could be on every day list but isn't yet. hmm, i think sewing is top of the list today before i go out but i have to say playing in the scrap room so much more fun. posting another layout i did a while back. getting them all into albums needs to be on the list too. i just did the dreaded before photos of the messy scrap room. i think i will post them after i clean up a bit and show the progress or maybe tomorrow.
