Dreams of Spring…

Memories of warmth…
 

A new quilt to wrap a new baby in (from some very talented hands)…

House plans that might perhaps maybe with some tweaking become our very own…

complete plans

Something wonderful (and easy!) for breakfast…
(And because I know you want to know)

Dutch Babies

Set oven to 450 F 
Melt 1/3 c. butter in a 13×9 pan
Blend 60 seconds in a 5 cup blender:

The dutch baby is so nostalgic of 7th grade home economics. I can still smell it baking. We’re going to have to make one at breakfast tomorrow!!!!

I LOVE looking at house plans. Thanks for sharing yours! I really, really like it. What kind of tweaking would you do? A friend of mine and I designed a house for a family from our church back in the college days–it was a lot of fun to meet with them and see what they wanted. And since we were still in school, we were terribly cheap. They actually bid on our services at a fundraising auction at church. We put in a certificate for architectural services last-minute, thinking it might go for $10 or so, and it was the highest-bid item!

Dutch Baby looks like a recipe I make called Puff Pancakes, but I think this has more eggs in it. Methinks I’ll have to try it!

MM,

We’d make the bath on the 3rd floor a full instead of a half, but the most major difference would be turning the dining room into a bedroom w/ a door through to the bathroom next to it. Obviously then the bathroom needs to be enlarged as well, and the breakfast room would become the dining. Clear as mud? Basically we just need to stretch the plan slightly to the right.

I think it’s so cool that you have mad architecture skilz. I’ll keep you posted on any progress we make!

What a pretty quilt! I love looking at house plans, too, and I love how yours looks inside as well as out. Glad you liked the Dutch Babies!

Okay, I don’t know if I am drooling more over the seeds (you can plant poppies!) the house or the dutch babies recipe…

Thanks for sharing the goodness!

I enoy your varieties of photos that you post randomly like this. (Ok, maybe they weren’t random, but my kids so overuse this word it gets stuck in my brain.)

I love the little bottles with sand and shells. I might need to do that for myself here. I’ve never heard of a Dutch Baby before - looks interesting! :)

Great photos, they capture the sensations perfectly. I love that house. I’ve looked at the same floorplans. I hope you get the house of your dreams.

I found you thru Shannon at Rocks in My Dryer and WOW, WOW, WOW. My mother used to make this puffy pancake thing in the oven that I never knew the name of and have been searching for the recipe off and on for 20 years! I think this Dutch baby may be it. I am SO making that this weekend! I can’t wait!
The rest of the posts are nice too. But the recipe has excited me beyond words (so how’d this comment have so many- go figure!)
