Random Summer Happiness :)

Yesterday I made my mom's pickle recipe.

Nothing says summer like home made pickles!

My mom and her mom would get together every summer and make these.

Pickles

7 C cucumbers sliced thin

1C green peppers cut fine

1 C green onions cut fine

Put together all of the above and add 1 T. of salt.

Let stand one hour.  Drain well and add:

2 C sugar

1 C white vinegar

1 T celery seed (to much for me, I add less)

mix well put in container and refrigerate.

Yesterday the girls and I watched Napoleon Dynamite and Lauren made red velvet cupcakes.

Except we ran out of red food coloring, so we had to use green :)

Here's a little glimpse of the Lollibag's I'm making for the Creative Connection show in Minneapolis

.

I'm a tad bit worried gals, that I will run out of Lollibag's.  Three and a half days of selling is the most I've ever done.

But on the bright side running out means I've sold them all!

I'm off to sew :)
