Well I realized that I have not put together any tutorials so here they are!!

Chain Stitches:

Single Crochet:

Double Crochet:

These videos are slightly blury but you should still be albe to see the end result. I plan on getting a better camera soon and plan on doing an entire pattern step by step on video!! Should be fun. Those of you that are working on a project that tells you to work in the round such as a hat or traditional granny square more videos are on the way for working in the round but for now please enjoy I hope they help!!

Happy Hooking,

Reading...Reading... and More Reading

Well as I said in my previous post I have been reading like crazy because I decided to read 52 books this year and so far its going great!!!

So far I have read:

In the Woods - Tana French

Trust No One - Gregg Hurwitz

Water for Elephants - Sara Gruen

Dust to Dust - Tami Hoag

Outlander - Diana Gabaldon

Once A Princess - Johanna Lindsey

Prince Charming - Gaelen Foley

So far I am ahead of schedule and am enjoying every minuet of it!! I am logging my books on a great website that I absolutely love: http://www.librarything.com/. If you have a large book collection or just hate not knowing which books you have this is a great site to catalog your books, rate them, talk with others about books and get recommendations. I love this site!!! Also a lot of my books have come from http://www.bookmooch.com/ this site is great for trading books and is on a points system. Another great site to check out!

I couldn't leave you without a yummy delicious recipe to sink your teeth into and make your taste buds happy so here is one for you. I was recently wanting to make some tacos but I didn't have taco seasoning on hand so here is a yummy taco seasoning recipe that is (in my opinion) better than any store bought:

TACO SEASONING:

1 TBSP Chili Powder

2 tsp Onion Powder

1 tsp each: Ground Cumin, Garlic Powder, Paprika, Ground Oregano, Sugar, Salt

Once meat is cooked add seasoning and 3/4 cup water and cook down.

So delicious and easy!! I make up a few batches a month and keep them in mini zip lock bags so I always have some on hand!! In the next few days I plan on having a new scrumptious recipe for you using this taco seasoning recipe so keep checking back!!

Happy Reading and Delicious Eats,

Jennie

Wow it's been a while!

Wow well needless to say it has been a while! I apologize for my long time away but I am back now and don't hope or plan on doing that agian. The end of the year was crazy for me and while I'm glad it's over in some respects I wish it hadn't been so fast. I enjoyed lots of new finds and patterns as well as lots more yummy recipes and eats that I cant wait to share with you! I have a delicious and completely homemade pizza recipe that I can not wait to tell you all about. Umm cheesy and yummy.

The new year brought along a few new goals for me one being to read 52 books in a year. So I will be cataloging my book reading on here along with all the yummy treats and fun projects I am doing. I hope you all will come back agian and forgive me for my extended absence!

Lots of Love and yummy tastes,
Jennie
