Cheesy Clouds

Thought I would share this Easy Peasy Recipe for Cheesy Clouds:

Sooooo easy. Break off bite-size pieces of bread dough. Place in lined and oiled baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. It doesn't matter if the cheese falls off. Bake in a moderate oven for 15 minutes. The cheese that fell onto the dish will stick to the 'Clouds'. Enjoy!!

Reverting Back To Childhood!!

Now that I have finished my latest bag, I think I've reverted back to my childhood!! How, you may ask?? By spending part of last night, 3 hours this morning and another 2 hours this afternoon coloring in!!

But wait!! It was quilt diagrams that I colored in!! LOL. LIKE THIS:

Now you can see why I don't want to see another diamond, star, hexagon, triangle or square for AT LEAST another week!!
