foodie fridays: jasmine sparkler

This simple drink is a delicious mixture of cooled Jasmine tea, sparkling water and a bit of sugar :)
don't let the brown color of this drink fool you, its delicious!

 serves 2
ingredients:
2 jasmine tea bags
1 1/2 cups boiling water
2/3 cup sugar
1 cup sparkling water

directions:
put the tea bags in a large cup or bowl, pour in the boiling water and add the sugar, cool until this mixture is at room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator until cold (around 20 minutes, i think). Divide the jasmine tea mixture between two glasses, then divide the sparkling water between the two glasses (a 1/2 cup for each).

bon appetit!

DIY: valentines day cards

I always like to make homemade valentines day cards, whatever they look like, you know they're going to be sweeter than anything you could buy.
I used this pic of me holding a sign I made on the front.
On the inside I created a little piece of paper candy that would pop up whenever anyone opened the card.

a bit of sewing

Dear readers,
I think its about time told you a bit about one of my favorite (and most useful) Christmas present: my black bernette sewing machine by Bernina, its a small sewing, machine but I love it, its styled after Bernina,s retro machines.   
            the machine:


  my completed projects (and one for the future)

for my first project I made a new pair of bathroom curtains, so far I've also sewed a bow onto an old-ish cardigan. :)Once my sewing skills get better I want to try and sew this vintage swimsuit from here.
