Pickled eggs are on the list also, but you go right ahead and enjoy yourself. I'll stick to the Cadbury eggs.<br /><br />Thank you for saying you're a copycat of others' colors. I am, too. It's tough to be untalented with color like I am. You did a great job with Printemps, though. I think you've been pretending.dorishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08702339127060616036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-72607975847921697132010-03-14T21:05:18.771-04:002010-03-14T21:05:18.771-04:00We used to eat pickled eggs all the time when we w...We used to eat pickled eggs all the time when we were kids. And we sometimes threw the eggs in the pickled beet jar. I loved pickled beets when was a kid but I've had a hard time getting my mind around them as an adult.

Good for you, finding a colorway that suits you better! I can't wait to see the results! And speaking of results, I want to see your in-the-pan artisan bread! I have broken down this weekend and PURCHASED bread at the supermarket for Sunday's breakfast. I'm not sure if the family was relieved or disappointed, LOL. The kitchen sure was a lot cleaner, though. ;)mainely stitchinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915498269348257624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-14935804683038406142010-03-13T22:10:11.857-05:002010-03-13T22:10:11.857-05:00fun spring blog header

Can't wait to see it!<br /><br />I loooove home baked bread - I remember my mom getting into these kicks where she'd bake bread every weekend for a month or so, then poof! there went her bread baking mojo... it would always roll around again sooner or later. I remember my favorite being the ones she baked in old coffee cans (yes, really!), and I think those were Irish Soda Bread.<br /><br />I hope you're having a fabulous weekend!MyLifesAStitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10759662056886022108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-51446836333299339582010-03-13T19:38:42.996-05:002010-03-13T19:38:42.996-05:00Pickled beets?

I am trying to get more interested in baking and cooking but seriously, I admit it, I could eat take away every night for the rest of my life. <br /><br />I love the changes you made for Le P!

Humm, humm.<br />Soda bread is another favorite, with lots of real butter and homemade jam. Hot out of the oven or toasted the next day. I like raisins and walnuts in it, but not caraway seed.<br />Stewey should jump through hoops to get some of this.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12870417446762715744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-34262961465301105702010-03-12T20:54:48.169-05:002010-03-12T20:54:48.169-05:00We love pickled beets and corn relish and three be...We love pickled beets and corn relish and three bean salad.

And I'm right there with you on the pickled beets - I really love them. My kids think that I'm seriously ill. And I'm with you too on the summer eating - I'm kind of hoping to do some spareribs on the grill this weekend (or rather get DH to do it because I'm grill-challenged). I think that I'm going to love the changes that you're making to you pattern. I can't wait to see more.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792171420098351093noreply@blogger.com
