LoucheLab.

I was hard-pressed to choose only a few pieces from LoucheLab to share in this post. When you check out their etsy shop you’ll realize the ones I ended up with are all from the first page. Of six. Everything is just that good. Can I just settle this by saying I’ll take one of everything?

The Daily Eat: Mushroom Ravioli.

{recipe and photo via These Days}

I’m pro cooked mushrooms and anti raw ones. But I do love the little guys and I hope you love Mushroom Week!

I’m not a pasta maker. I’d like to think I could be if I really set my mind to it, but as of today I haven’t. So my thought is that I’d substitute wonton wrappers for the homemade pasta in these Mushroom Ravioli. I’m sorry, Die-Hard Pasta Makers, but that’s just my style!

Happy Weekend.

This week has been one of those rare ones, the kind where I actually feel like I accomplished almost everything I set out to do. Aren’t those the absolutely best?

This Weekend:
• clear out rocks from flower bed (the previous owner’s solution to landscaping)
• take photos inside my house to finally share with you all – thanks for being patient!
• work on new project that I hope to be revealing to you soon
• pick up some groceries for next week
• have some quiet time drawing

I hope you have a lovely weekend – see you Monday!
