Delish Crepes

I discovered the best crepe recipe over Christmas break thanks to The Neville family cook book.

1 cup flour
2 cups milk
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup melted butter
3 eggs

Beat eggs. Add sugar, salt, and milk while whisking. Then slowly add floor while whisking, avoid the lumps! Few lumps are fine. Then stir in the melted butter.

Heat pan to medium heat, melt butter on pan, pour out a thin layer of batter, cook until the eggs peel away and the bottom is becoming golden brown. Flip, cook for a few more seconds to brown.

We like to eat them with a spoonful of fat free sour cream and some brown sugar, add blueberries and strawberries.

Enjoy!

T-Shirt Refashioning

My husband had a shirt that was now too small for him. I had always loved this shirt. I couldn't bring myself to giving it away. So I decided to do a little refashioning. This was the XL button up:

These were the cuts I made to make the shirt work for me. I made sure to leave about 1/2" for seam allowance. I also removed the pocket.  

I sewed in the sides, re-hemmed the bottom, took in the sleeves, and sewed the sleeves back on. I used the strip of fabric I cut off the bottom of the shirt as my ruffle.  

 Viola! Good as new.

Sale will be on selected styles and until supplies last. 

The Reward

I had one of my customers email me this cute photo of her little girl sporting my Millie boots. I just think she is the cutest thing ever.

Even though some days I feel like all I do is boots boots boots - I have absolutely loved having this little business. I have an amazingly supportive husband - who probably wouldn't want me posting about how he even helps cut out fabric for me!! And I definitely wouldn't be able to do this all without my mother - who would take pride in me posting about the many boots she's cut out, and buttons she's sewn on. A big thanks to all of my customers - I couldn't do this without you! Bring on Christmas rush!!

White Bean Chicken Chili

This is one of my new favorite dishes. It does have a little heat - but I like to think the spicier the better! It's great for the winter months. Enjoy!

White Bean Chicken Chili

1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

1 medium onion, chopped

1-1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1 Tbsp. olive oil

2 cans (15-1/2 oz.) Great Northern Beans, rinsed and drained

1 can (14-1/2 oz.) Chicken Broth

2 cans (4 oz. each) Chopped Green Chilies

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. dried oregano

1/2 tsp. black pepper

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

3/4 cup fat-free sour cream

1/2 cup skim milk (recipe calls for whipping cream, but who needs the extra calories!?)

In a large skillet, saute chicken, onion and garlic powder in the olive oil until the chicken is no longer pink. Add the beans, broth, chilies and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 30 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in sour cream and milk. Serve immediately.
