The pasta has been cooked... ...and the sauce has been made... ...ready for Sarah's first attempts at cooking savoury dishes: spaghetti! I made three little servings of pasta with sauce on top, so I can use this dish at the Three Broomsticks as well. I also made some uncooked pasta, and a serving of pasta… Continue reading Spaghetti!

Patience
Guess what book I bought recently. *over-excited squealing* I've only been waiting two years for this beautiful book, and it's finally here! Kingdom of Ash is about 100 pages longer than Winter, at 980~ compared to Winter's 824 pages, making KoA my longest novel. It came with this promotional bookmark, which has the entire series on… Continue reading Patience
Project Roundup
After watching the first three episodes of the Thirteenth Doctor, I noticed that her coat has a slit in the back, so for the sake of accuracy, I added it to my miniature one. While I'm making alterations, I figured I'd put a band on the bottom of the denim jacket, for added realism. Sarah… Continue reading Project Roundup
Pots & Pans
The most recent addition to Sarah's growing kitchen is some cooking pots and saucepans. I really like the look of the finish I gave them, black lightly brushed with silver to give them a little shine. Sarah's putting them to use at the moment cooking pasta, though she and I have had many other ideas… Continue reading Pots & Pans
Grocery Shopping
Sarah's just returned from grocery shopping at the local grocers' (aka my crafting desk). She's bought pasta and sauce, for dinner, as well as more tea. You can see the little tins even have the nutrition table on the back, which are both smaller than the pad of my finger! The tea box is a… Continue reading Grocery Shopping
Just a Quick S.H.I.E.L.D.
As I have been very busy with real life stuff, there hasn't been a lot of time for crafting lately, but I did manage to make another badge! The design is from one of my favourite TV shows, Agents of SHIELD, which is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. You can see the original design to… Continue reading Just a Quick S.H.I.E.L.D.
Shades of Blue
Recently, this Book Depository bookmark came into my possession, and I originally wasn't going to colour it in, but then I changed my mind. The flowy lines reminded me of the sea, and then I had the idea of a selection of blues to look like the sea directly underneath the sky. The dark blue… Continue reading Shades of Blue
Seating Areas
Sadly, the foldable chairs that Sarah was hoping to get to match the dining table were gone from the op shop, but she did find these normal chairs instead that match quite well. Sarah's taken to having her morning hot drink sitting at the table, watching the garden life and the weather. The chairs are… Continue reading Seating Areas
New Books
So I might have bought more books recently, oops! I bought Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda a few days after watching the movie on DVD, and both the book and the movie are so good! I originally went to the bookstore just to get Ship of the Dead, I had no idea that 9 from the… Continue reading New Books
Great Finds
While Sarah was browsing second-hand stores, she found this lovely old dining table for her apartment. It has a simple locking mechanism to keep the legs in place because it folds (pretty) flat if it needs to be stored somewhere. There were matching chairs there too, which she's going to go back and get as… Continue reading Great Finds
