@Darcy I made that chickpea salad for myself today – it was delicious!

Oh, lovely! Thanks for posting.

Great suggestions, Reeni! I always forget about Greenberg and Hammer. I’d add Steinlauf and Stoller to your list for their great tools and notions. And I love Elliot Berman for their European imported fabrics from all the great fashion houses.

This is not so much lunch as a micro snack but my kid was asking for peanut butter so I blitzed half roasted almonds and half roasted & salted sunflower seeds. Pretty fantastic in a little ‘sandwich’ between crackers, and really held her over well.
roundtheworldgirl replied to the topic Vegetarian Lunch Options in the forum Cooking and Baking 11 years ago

like you, Darcy, we are not vegetarians but eat vegetarian (actually, vegan!) a lot. I love a hearty salad. To make it filling without animal proteins I add sunflower seeds, chickpeas, several different kinds of vegetables and fruits, and top it off with a tahini-based dressing.

A little more time consuming but very yummy is lettuce wraps…[Read more]
Darcy Struble replied to the topic Little Layette in the forum Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years ago

Oh yes! I love that idea too! This child is going to have a lot of outfits! Ok so this might sounds crazy but bare with me for a moment. What if I used the puppet show top and the tea party sunsuit bottom and modified them to mash together. It would have the collar, a line to add piping to the bodice and I could embroider the bodice with little…[Read more]

  It could work. Have you given it a go yet? I’m interested to see if it would work or not.
Lightning McStitch replied to the topic Cute things kids say or do in the forum off topic 11 years ago

My four year old was helping me hang washing and was naming things as she passed them to me:
“your undies mummy,
My brother’s sock,
Daddy’s nose blow thing,
…”

Laundry names seem to be a sticky point as she once asked me, very loudly, in the swimming pool change rooms:
“where you get that booby holder from, mummy?”
Darcy Struble replied to the topic Little Layette in the forum Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years ago

I definitely agree with that. I love a tartan. That is so cute and both ideas are adorable! I will definitely be adding those to my sewing list for my future nephew! Look at how little they are!!
Mel replied to the topic Cute things kids say or do in the forum off topic 11 years ago

definitely not scary monsters then if they leave new clothes!

The other day my seven year old kissed her daddy on the top of the head and said:
“I’m going to kiss you on the top of your head every day when you are bald!”

For the record my husband has a full head of thick hair! (and so does his father who is almost 70!)
Darcy Struble replied to the topic Little Layette in the forum Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years ago

I do have the puppet show, @motherof5! Yes I’ll definitely try that! The hide and seek would be adorable too! What color do you think? I’m so inexperienced at sewing for boys! Give me baby girl and I’m golden but I’m still learning to get my creative juices flowing for little boy things! Hopefully this nephew will help things along 😉

Oh that sounds amazing! Tomato season is coming!!
Darcy Struble started the topic Little Layette in the forum Heirloom Sewing and Embroidery 11 years ago

I can’t help but think when I’m sewing the little layette (and I’m sewing it A LOT right now as almost all of my friends are having babies by the end of the summer) that it feels like a modern heirloom (contradiction, I know).

I’m making the bodysuit in a batiste which automatically makes it feel special and on certain ones I have been adding…[Read more]

So I’ll start out by saying that we are not vegetarian but we don’t cook much meat in our house. We buy meat maybe once a month, maybe less. Although we do buy fish a little more than that. But anyway, we eat a plant based diet.

The hardest meal to go more vegetarian is lunch, what with sandwiches that are heavy in meat and such. So I thought…[Read more]
Darcy Struble replied to the topic What's for Tea Today, Mum? A cooking thread. in the forum Cooking and Baking 11 years ago

@roundtheworldgirl, what a bummer! My husband says the same thing happens to him with all melons, watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew… He still eats a little in the summer though.

@motherof5, we are hoping to build a hot house (glass house) next spring. We just moved into a new house so inside projects are being done this year and outdoor…[Read more]
