Just ran into one last night. Might order it up. Did a great job on risotto. Rice, beans, presssure, slow cook? Yes please.
''I think the question is “Who will fry me some bacon?”
Statements like that should always be whispered in the company of few.

I read this today whilst waiting in a queue. Absolutely brilliant and highly recommended, even if for non-Brits the Ladybird name and illustrations might be a little mystifying.

Small is safe, it’s a quicker trip to the store than that yours. Therefore I’m at the supermarket purchasing bacon. I haven’t felt like eating for a while so I am embracing this sudden hunger with bacon, scrambled eggs, Turkish bread and homemade tomato relish. Fatty McFatty.
I make jewelry too but not as gorgeous as yours.![]()
Awww thank you Twinks.I think the beads and gold do most of the heavy lifting when it comes to how they look. When one starts with pretty things, it's hard to not end up with pretty things.

And the red tourmaline is finally finished. Took me six hours today stringing this up. Would have been four if I hadn't had to restring it because of an error. But it turned out to be a happy accident as I made an alteration that I believe improved the final look.

Very pretty.
have you ever made rolled paper beads? they're pretty awesome and durable. old magazines with brightly colored pages make the best beads.
It can be expensive. Just depending. But then I also don't do things like go out to eat or buy coffee drinks or things like that. The tourmaline necklace was about $90 to make, the tanzanite was about $80. I buy the beads at the bead shows where they are 50-60% off bead shop price. They have all sorts of pretty beads there to work with that aren't semi-precious. (I don't like to buy the beads off the internet because I like to see exactly what I am getting.) Some of the crystal beads are very nice, and the silver is more economical than gold. You may want to look around - you might be pleasantly surprised.
Still cannot afford it. I just try to make the most of what I have access to.
