Weekend

Weekend! Finally.
I have several goals for today and tomorrow. One of them would be to work on my patchwork blanket. I have some "technical issues" though. For instance, I am not sure how to finish the edges since, obviously, it is not a typical rectangular/square shape. So my hope is to get some ideas over the weekend, finish the thing, and move on to the next project.





Yesterday I made a miso-like soup. I went to the food market, looked around, and decided on buying seaweed, tofu, and miso paste. I had some home-made broth in my fridge already, so after coming back I just added the new ingredients and had a meal in twenty minutes! Yummy...



I have also made some fruit salads. Since it's been quite cold, I eat my fruit warm. For example, I microwave apple pieces for about 1 minute, then add other fruit. That way the whole dish is much warmer and "not straight from the fridge".
For the one below I used an apple, honeydew melon, grapes, blueberries, and coconut chips.



And this is one random salad with gnocchi, olives, tomatoes, and feta cheese.



 
 
Okay, back to work on my patchwork blanket. Lack of ideas for the edge drives me nuts, so need to do some research... Sigh...
