¡Feliz 2010!

¡Feliz Navidad!

Christmas is just around the corner...

I just love Christmas time and all the decorations and plans! Now it's even getting a bit cooler here and this weekend we made hot chocolate at night and for breakfast too! So cozy and warm!

This was my breakast today...

¿No te gusta cuando la Navidad se va acercando? Todos los adornos, los planes, las decoraciones y el frío que está empezando a haber ya por Tenerife... Este fin de semana lo hemos aprovechado para hacer chocolate caliente y también hicimos churros de los del Mercadona al horno que están para chuparse los dedos!!!

... and this was dinner last night for Henry and me! Great Saturday night!
Well, I am trying to make things in decoupage and I discovered that Ikea food savers (I love them) are so cute to decoupage with Christmas fabrics. I started with this flower fabric and loved the result. My kid took the pics and they're really good!!! Don't you think so? lol...

Quiero aprender a hacer cosas en decoupage y creo que los botes de Ikea son ideales por su tamaño y porque la base blanca queda muy bien con las telas de Navidad. Lo primero que hice fue con esta tela de flores tan bonita y que me parece que quedó muy chulo. Las fotos las hizo mi hijo y creo que quedaron muy bien, no crees?
Firts of all a bit of sanding...

Primero que nada un poco de lija...
Later a bit of primer...

Luego un poco de Gesso para tapar el azul del bote...
And then just Mod Podge acting...

Y ya luego la maravillad el Modge Podge...
Tachan!!!!!
And then I discovered myself just admiring my Mackenzie Childs pots. I love them and I feel so lucky I ordered some before they stopped making them. Love them!!!

SI seré maruja que hay veces que fregando los cacharros me quedo embelesada con mis calderos! Me encantan! Y eso casi nunca me pasa ni con zapatos ni nada de eso... jiji...
And this weekend also has been so good for my husband's work at home! Look at these before & after pics!

Mi marido también ha aprovechado este fin de semana para seguir con sus trabajos en el balcón y mira qué chulas las fotos del antes y el después!

Yummy!!!!

God, I made this apple pie from Bea's blog recipe and I have to say it tastes just like no other I've ever made! I used an already made crust and I think that's why I can't cut the pie in pieces; it has so much juice but I am eating it from the pan with a spoon!!!! God, it's delicious!!!! Go to her blog and try the recipe!
I like to add some banana and raisins to the apple pie and so I did with this great recipe too!

Didn't have enough dough to make the cover so just had some stars instead, lol...

Yesterday I made some mince pies also following her blog post and I looooved them! Don't judge them by the way they look, lol... so ugly but so yummy!!!!!

Thanks God I met Bea!!! lol... Although my clothes aren't thinking the same way! lol...
