A lot has been going on around here

I want to get some arts and crafts done, how can I in this mess?
I thought I'd share a view into my life.
This is my crafting "corner" in my bedroom.
It is such a mess.
I needed more space to work, so...


I salvaged wood and pieces from a couple of dressers and shelves that were being thrown away and I built myself a craft/ work table.
It is far from pretty and still needs strips of wood put in and on to make it look better and some paint...
I have a place now to bead and cut and paste and glue and glitter ...
I am stoked.

Yay!

We're still clearing and cleaning to get ready for the excavator to come and put in the manufactured home.

This is the view from our mailbox into the neighbor field.
I love all the moss around here.
The home will go in front of the pump house there.
Look at the shape of this part of the tree trunk.
I'm saving a piece.
This is the home at the storage yard where it is sitting right now.
Can't wait to get it here.

How exciting about the new home - you are really going to have space then - how many bedrooms?

Mahala Yorkshire Pudding Recipe give it a go!

75g plain flour
1 egg
75ml milk
55ml water
Salt

Dripping for tin
This recipe is taken from Delia Smith’s Complete Cookery Course, Delia Smith’s Complete Illustrated Cookery Course and Delia Smith's Christmas. It has also appeared in Sainsbury's Magazine (Nov 1993).
Method
Make up the batter by sifting the flour into a bowl and making a well in the centre. Break the egg into it and beat, gradually incorporating the flour, and then beat in the milk, 2 fl oz (50 ml) water and seasoning (an electric hand whisk will do this in seconds425°F (220°C), add the dripping to the roasting tin and place that on a baking sheet on a free shelf. place the tin over direct heat while you pour the batter into the sizzling hot fat. Return the tin to the baking sheet on the highest shelf The pudding will take 25-30 minutes to rise and become crisp and golden. Serve as soon as possible: if it has to wait around too long it loses its crunchiness.
