New fabric! This caught my eye when I was absorbed in the wonderfully colourful array of wares of Stitch Up haberdashery. This fabric will grace the table the next time I am selling issues of Athemaura zine at an event.

I finally framed the beautiful art I acquired from last years' Alternative Press Fair! This glistering work is from Worried Eyes on Etsy. It was very lovely to table next to her for the 'zine fair and to get to know her art, which has so much wonder. This painting is so glittery pretty: Wish the light was better so I could show the painting as it stands, on a tilted standing frame, on a checked mini table-cloth, atop a little table in my living room.
I also bought some postcards from Worried Eyes. I love the watercolouriness of those, too. Go check her art out and support her! Worried Eyes Just a super and simple vegetarian gnocchi recipe I improvised recently!:
Fry chopped garlic in deep saucepan in little olive oil Add finely chopped orange sweet pepper Add chopped, fresh Italian tomatoes (I favour plum tomatoes) When all is softened from cooking, add a generous splash white wine, turn heat down low Cook until forming a sauce, then add half a tube of tomato puree to combine and make a thick sauce When thick sauce has formed, add chopped, tinned (or fresh, cooked) asparagus and keep on low heat Also add dash of white wine vinegar Boil kettle of water If sauce looks complete, remove from hob Place a new saucepan on hob, add boiled water When water has bubbled then settled, time to add a bag of fresh gnocchi - takes about 3mins to cook When gnocchi rises to top, it is cooked, so drain well Now reintroduce the pan of sauce to the hob, pour in the cooked gnocchi and stir really well so gnocchi is completely covered in the thick sauce Serves two, or save surplus for next day's lunch. Can serve with whatever cheese or faux cheese you like, but I prefer without. |
