Ohh! Look what I found!

I found patterns for Regency England Dresses at Sense and Sensibility Patterns! I am SOOOO excited. So excited in fact that I already bought two patterns. What a dork I am, but after being on yet another Jane Austen kick(I usually go through this every 4-6 months) I really want to make myself a dress. I feel like a big dork, but I do so like 19th century England. Hmm, 19th Century America too for that matter, I LOVED the Little House book series and also reading all of Anne of Green Gables(Canada is really close to the US). I like the English fashion better though, for adults. So after I make some sun dresses for Tenna and Andi, and finish my skirts, a Regency dress is my next project.

Oh and I found a weird peanut butter substitute. Ok, it is only OK, but Clark loves it. Take softened cream cheese and mix in some kinako powder(powdered soybeans). It tastes fairly similar, and since I want to keep him away from peanuts a bit longer to make sure he doesn't become allergic, it is a great way to fool him...kinda.

Anyway, just wanted to share...oh and hope you like the new look, I might try to change it again come summer, but just this general lay out with different pictures...hmm. Oh and those are pictures we actually took with our dinky camera! Thank goodness cherry blossoms stay still unlike little kids.
