{this moment} ~ blurry!

Caution: Crazy headless self portraits!!

I have found that I really like the warmth of having something around my neck, and I don't want to take it off inside. So I like to keep my eye out for scarves, I rarely (never) find good ones at Goodwill and new ones are really ridiculously priced (although Target seems to have some cute ones). Anyway back to the headlessness...

I found THIS BLOG where she shared a whole slew of recycled tshirt scarf tutorials!

So I made THIS one...
And THIS one. The only bummer about this one is she did not really use an old tshirt she used new knit so mine came out too short to loop a second time which would have made the warmth factor much greater.
I really like the concept of using tshirts, no only because they are 2 bucks at Goodwill but also because they are not too hot inside (nor are they itchy)!
Win win! I'll be making more! Which one do you think I should try next (ruffles are disqualified)!
Did you like the headlessness? Classy hu!

Bollywood!

Yep that is right... Bollywood.

Dan and I have crossed over the line and have been thoroughly enjoying some great (and not so great) Bollywood films!

So I thought I'd share a couple with you in case you all need a new movie genre. The bonus, they are completely clean (they don't even kiss) and they are tons of fun!

The first is Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, this one was lots of fun! We laughed through it but it was also a really sweet love story!

The second I have to recommend is Aaja Nachle. We REALLY liked this one, there is always a bit of hokey in the Bollywood movies and the beginning of this one was really hokey but the rest makes up for it! Plus they tell the story of Layla and Majoon which is the eastern story that Romeo and Juliet came from. But it is a better story (and this from a gal who is a HUGE Shakespeare fan)!!

These are both on instant on Netflix! Happy dancing!

Lasagna

Tonight I made a yummy Gluten and Dairy free lasagna! I got Fern and Leili to eat it by reminding them that not only is lasagna Dad's favorite but also Garfield. ;) My dad always loved Garfield and he has passed it on to my kids. The picture up at the top, well that is what Dan looked like tonight. He He!!

I am not sure I have many readers looking for a gluten and dairy free lasagna recipe so I won't post the whole recipe but I will mention a couple products that made this yummy. First DeBoles is making rice lasagna noodles that are NO BOIL!!!! So lovely! I make a good ricotta with tofu based on a recipe in Vegan Vittles, and that new Diaya mozzarella is just lovely in so many many ways. ;)

As to the silence here recently well, we hit a rough patch. Dan has been gone tons, life has been a little overwhelming, and I have not loaded pictures off my camera (I lost PhotoShop with the computer crash and the free program I downloaded to use is not quite up to snuff...). So I'll be here with what is left of my sanity!

Ciao!
