MMMM Tres Leche!

My friend, Kelly needed a little encouragement to bake her husband's favorite cake for his birthday. Tres Leche Cake {recipe courtesy of the amazing Alton Brown} looks incredible & smells DIVINE, too. I made her take it home overnight before frosting it with the homemade whipped cream topping so we weren't tempted to eat the whole thing have a tiny taste test.

If you'd like to bake one up, be sure to click on Alton's name for the link.

'good eats' indeed.

Corner Kite #1 & Flowers

The first kite is done. I have not pressed it since I've yet to make my kite template but couldn't wait to share it.      

                                                               

Both my great grandparents were fantastic gardeners. They shared their talents with anyone willing to give a hand {even a tiny set of hands that probably made more work for them!}. Dividing plants and transplanting to this day still reminds me of my great grandpa Eddie.

Happy Stitching Everyone!

You can bet I'm out in the garden today----it's in the 80s here & sunny.

My Final Triangles

LS11, LS 12 & LS13

The triangles are DONE.

Just 4 kites to go and on to top construction after a bit of a break

& some charity blocks.

The first daffodil of the season finally opened this afternoon.

Several others are very close to blooming.

There's some serious celebrating going on here!!

All my best,

Heather



3 Triangles Remaining!!

LS 8, LS9, LS 10

With just 3 left to go before the corner kites, it won't be long now.

We're still waiting on that first daffodil, though patience is wearing thin.

We're hoping to look out the window in the morning

and see it greeting us in full bloom.

Happy Stitching,

Heather

2 Yellows

2 more triangles for the completed list in sunny yellow

...the same color of the daffodils we expect to open

up any moment now.

Happy Stitching,

Heather
