3 Necklace Cords and a Flower Applique

Hello there! I'm already sleepy but I couldn't resist posting this. I need some advice. You see, I made all these stuff at different times in the past. 

All WIPs that still need just a few finishing touches. 

I'm a collector of flowers, I admit, especially of roses. But for the flowers here, I used the pattern of 5-Petal Crochet Flower by One Dog Woof. For the leaves, I used the Irish Oranges pattern of Annette Petavy from Crochetme.com. Lastly, for the necklace cords, I used two different patterns--- How to Make a Necklace Cord  from Crochet Flowers and Corkscrew Spiral Necklace by Pompom Emporium.

I promised a friend that I will give her a crocheted necklace. My dilemma is I don't know which necklace cord to give her. I'm also planning to unfasten the leaves from the flowers to give it another look. Help! I need some of your most precious opinion please!!!!! Enjoy the coming week!

    Perhaps you could make the crochet leaves slightly smaller and fit the roses and leaves then on the purple cord.

Pesto Spanish Sardines Pasta: A Remake

There's a saying that goes, "One is enough, two is too much..." Uh uhhh, not for this!!! I'm referring to the Spanish Sardines Pasta which was my welcome post this year. My daughter, Ayana Grace, bought a bottle of pesto from the grocery store last month (she usually does...we seldom run out of pesto sauce in our cupboard) and I just wasn't able to resist making another try of the Pesto Spanish Sardines Pasta so here it is... Ingredients: 2 tbsps reserved oil from bottled sardines 2 tbsps olive oil 1 tbsp minced garlic 1/4 cup diced tomato 1 cup flaked Spanish sardines 1/3 cup Pesto sauce 1/4 cup pitted black olives 1/4 cup button mushrooms 1/2 kilo pasta noodles, cooked according to package instructions salt and pepper to taste Whole pieces of Spanish sardines (1 piece as topping per serving) Parsley for garnish   Steps: In a large saute pan, heat oil from sardines.

Ensaladang Mustasa

It's back to work today, after five days of rest, something I've been looking forward to. As if the  long Christmas holiday vacation was not enough :) Well, days just seem to fly so fast! Thanks to the additional non-working holidays brought about by the Pope's visit to my country, the Philippines. I had time to relax, stay at home, bond with family and yes, sort picture files in my computer. In between social networking, of course, I cooked for my family. With my husband home, there has to be fish and vegetables on the dining table. There was a bunch of mustasa (mustard) leaves left in the vegetable bin. What could be a better and perfect partner to fried fish than Ensaladang Mustasa (Mustard Salad)? Very simple and easy, here's how I did it. Ingredients: 1 bunch of mustasa leaves Rock salt 2 medium-sized tomatoes, sliced 1 small onion, sliced thinly 3 tbsps vinegar Iodized salt, ground pepper and sugar to taste Steps: 1. Cut mus

Ensaladang Alugbati (Malabar Spinach Salad)

This post appeared in my Facebook memories today. I'm glad it did! I featured this salad in my FB page a year ago.  Alugbati  (Malabar Spinach)  Salad (Ensaladang Alugbati). This came up when I received for the first time this bouquet of alugbati from Erik, my officemate. He shares with us fruits and veggies fresh from his garden.
