WIP Wednesday 2.19.14

A holiday... another snow day...  Didn't get everything done this week, but I did get quite a bit done.

Chalk another one off the list.  I completed my Yahoo Groups 2012 Spring Mystery quilt!



For RSC14 I made 12 scrappy string strips that are 2.5" x about 43"!



I started working on my Finding Nemo Scrappy Trip quilt again.  I have three rows done and now I can add these six blocks to it this week.



I finished my Classic Meets Modern block for February -- LOVE it!

Found this recipe today on facebook!

POTATO PUFFS
Ingredients
3 cups of mashed potatoes
2 eggs
1/3 cup sour cream (optional extra for serving)...
1 heaping cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons chopped chives or parsley
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Directions Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease with butter 8 - 9 of the wells of a nonstick muffin pan. In a medium mixing bowl whisk the eggs then mix in the sour cream. Stir in both cheeses and the chives. Add potatoes and mix well. Spoon them into the pan filling the cups to slightly below the top. Bake 25- 35 minutes until they pull away from the sides of the cup and are golden brown. Remove from oven and let them cool 5 minutes in pan. Serve with sour cream if desired.
