This is a very fun project and I love my wooden knitting needles for making scarves.

One of my nieces was watching me knit a scarf, and was interested in learning to knit. We improvised with a pair of pencils that she wrapped with electrical tape at the ends. She did really good so I wanted to learn how to teach her better. I found this site, Maggie’s Rags. She suggested … click here to continue reading Make Your Own Knitting Needles

Homemade Candy Cane Peppermint Ice Cream

By Mrs. Accountability on November 10th, 2009

I love my Donvier Ice Cream Maker so much, it is so handy. I use it, and it’s still halfway frozen when I rinse it out and put it right back into the freezer until the urge strikes me to have ice cream. I’ve been wanting to make this flavor since I made the Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream.

Now just for a minute, let me tell you why owning one of … click here to continue reading Homemade Candy Cane Peppermint Ice Cream

Cranberry Chocolate Bread Pudding

By Mrs. Accountability on November 7th, 2009

Bread pudding is a great and frugal way to use stale bread. A couple of years ago at Christmas, one of my coworkers brought in a decadent bread pudding.

My Well Loved 10 Year Old Garlic Press

By Mrs. Accountability on July 2nd, 2009

Now you might not think that’s so exciting, but we cook a lot of our meals from scratch around here, and we use fresh garlic quite regularly. I’d say no less than 3 times a week and sometimes daily.

Back in 1999 I was having a lot of trouble keeping a garlic press around. They kept breaking. The plastic parts would break or even the metal parts would break. I was … click here to continue reading My Well Loved 10 Year Old Garlic Press
