Fintgertip Pot Holders

I love quick little projects that I can copy and pass on to others. My friend Linda gave me this sweet little set for my birthday. The little fingertip pot holders are perfect for bringing something hot to the table and leaving with hot dishes to pass around. I've made them two different ways now and since the method is slightly different I will explain them both ways. For each little holder you will need two pieces of fabric cutting them each 8 inches long and 4 inches wide. Round the edges as shown. Then. ..you will need 4 more pieces pieces to slip your fingers into, These pocket pieces measure 3 1/2 inches long each and 4 inches wide. These measurements are meant to be a guide. You can of course make each one a bit wider or narrower to suit yourself. You will also need some heat proof fabric which is sold especially in fabric stores for pot holders. To make the little fingertip pot holders without binding follow the instructions below. sew right sides togethe

Blue Cornflowers

One of the treasures that I found at the MCC Relief sale was this little 1 1/2 quart loaf pan with a lid. It actually has straight sides but the magic of photography changed it to sloped sides.

It was first introduced in 1958 and was then made of a glass ceramic material which could be used on stove top and under the broiler.. When it was sold in the late 90's they changed the product to a ceramic stoneware. Make sure if you are looking for vintage pieces it is e

making paska (Easter Bread)

This is the most requested recipe I have. Paska is a traditional Mennonite Bread made only at Easter. There are many recipes with subtle differences. Each and every baker and family for that matter prefers their own recipe and every year when I serve it I hear about the differences of the recipes. My recipe originated with Terry's grandmother. I have added and subtracted until it was to my liking. My own mom's recipe was much lighter with more eggs but it tended to be dry. This recipe smells unbelievably wonderful while baking. If you attempt to make it, prepare for requests for another batch. If you are not careful, before you know it, you will be expected to begin baking it the day after Valentines day because of the demand. It is easiest if you have a blender to make a really light dough. When the orange, lemon, eggs, milk and butter are added to the blender, let it blend on Medium for several minutes. The aroma from the citrus will be enough to alert the ne
