Cutest DIY projects

It's been a while, but I am back!  Here are a few of my current favorite things:

These are the cutest crocheted shoes I have ever seen.  They are so darling.

I love reading.  I love reading real books with real pages.  I love libraries.  I could down myself in the smell of books.  I could care less for a Kindle.  With that said, this Book Page Corner Origami brought a smile to my face.

Valentine's Desserts

As Valentine's Day draws closer, I am starting to debate on which dessert I should make for my husband and kids.  My husband doesn't really like eating desserts -ice cream included.  But he loves a good cheesecake once in a while.  Since we have been watching our diets, this recipe from Skinnytaste just sounds too good to be true.

Recipes from Chef Julie Yoon

I came across Chef Julie Yoon's blog as I was looking for Korean cake recipes.  (I'll talk more about that in another blog.  I am a bit obsessed.)  Julie is Korean but makes a variety of dishes that look so delicious.  Here are a few of my Must Try recipes that I found from her blog.

Comfort Food At It's Finest

Tell me this doesn't look good:

mediterranean mac and cheese




































Mediterranean Macaroni and Cheese by Cooking Classy.  I cannot wait to try this recipe with my family!

Speaking of comfort food, you all may have seen the lasagna roll ups going around the web.  I have been debating on when to make it.  Lasagna Rolls seem to be the perfect portion size.  I especially want to try The Girl Who Ate Everything's version of her Healthy Spinach Lasagna Rolls.



Today, I came across this recipe from Cooking Classy.  I was stunned.  Why haven't I thought of this after seeing the regular lasagna recipes?  My kids LOVE alfredo sauce and anything creamy.  They call it "the white sauce".  So when I saw this image... I immediately thought of them.  I bet they would love this.  Creamy White Chicken Lasagna Roll Ups by Cooking Classy.  I can't wait to try all of these recipes!  This is comfort food at a new level!



Enjoy!
