Warm Protein Drink

May 20, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

Protein shakes are a great way to break your nightly fast. Unfortunately I’ve found I’ll freeze to death the rest of the day if I drink a cold shake. I just can’t make myself drink one. Brrrrrr! This warm drink is the perfect substitute! Plus, who doesn’t want to start their day off with aContinue reading

How to Store Sewing Patterns

May 13, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

Folding a pattern is like trying to fold a giant road map. It just doesn’t work.

How to Store Lettuce

May 6, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

We buy lettuce with the intention of making salads, but we all know that doesn’t always happen.  It gets forgotten or pushed into the unknown regions of the fridge. It’s the thought that counts, right?

Pattern Weights

May 1, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

I’m very particular about my patterns. How can something so useful be so delicate! I don’t cut the different sizes in case I need to use the bigger size later. I also don’t pin my pattern pieces to the fabric. Somehow I just always tear them.

BBQ Sauce

April 29, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

I love summer, the smell of summer, the smell of barbecues at sunset, and of course barbecue sauce.  Barbecued anything has got to be one of my favorite foods but barbecued pulled pork sandwiches….mmmmm…

How to Sew a Minky Blanket

April 26, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

I love minky blankets. I’m not sure why but I find them particularly cute. When I was pregnant I had already decided Little Lady needed a bunch of them! (OK, it was a great excuse to make blankets, but I did want her to grow up to love them too.) Having looked at some ofContinue reading

Tamarind Water

April 26, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

I didn’t grow up with Tamarind water. I actually hadn’t tried it until recently, thanks to Mountain Man. These little fruits are delicious. They taste like liquid fruit leather, Yum!

Chocolate Stuffed Bagel Bread

April 26, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

I Love Bagels. I also love chocolate. See where this is going?   You know, sometimes I just crave bagels. I’m the ultimate carb lover. Breads and pasta are my Achilles heel. Usually I don’t want a whole bagel

Sour Cream Ranch

March 21, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

Ranch dressing is a staple. Salads, veggie dip, dunk your pizza, wings, or steak in it. It’s just delicious. When you want ranch, you need it, there’s no substitute.

Homemade Gelatin (Jello)

March 19, 2015 By Casually Unexpected

When I was pregnant with Little Lady, I craved Jello like no other. Looking at the labels in the store I decided to make my own version. (And if you ask Mountain Man, I pretty much just craved everything but shhhhh….)
