Sewing Projects: Fabric Coasters

Do you want to make your own coasters? Do you want to make ones that match your decor? Do you want to start sewing and you don't know from where to start? This is an easy and fast project that a beginner can do it. I used the tutorial of Crafty Gemini to make these coasters. They are washable and customized to your taste. I bought the Fabric from Hancook Fabric. You can use Fabric scraps to make it.

Let's Zumba!

I heard a lot about Zumba through friends and I wanted to try. I really need to have some energy to do my housework and take care of the kids.  I did some search online for Zumba classes in my area. I found 2 trainers that give Zumba classes. I chose one of them. Her name is Amy and I went 2 times now. It is like a dance and aerobics class at the same time. The first time was good but I couldn't walk that day .. really literally. The next day, I felt much better and had more energy. The second time was good as well to the extent that I felt that the class went so fast...which is weird and nice :)  I hope I could go two days a week... at least!

Wish me luck!!

Baklava .. Love it!

Few days ago, I baked some Baklava. I really loved it and it was really easy to make :)

 

Just need:

1. 1 box of filo dough

2. Mix of Nuts, sugar and cinnamon

3. Some Butter

4. Cold Syrup ( bring 2 cups of water and 1 cup of sugar into a boil and then add lemon Juice (half a lemon is enough) and 1 teaspoon of Vanilla on a medium heat)

 

I used Walnuts!

 

The dough should be covered all time as it is very sensitive and  dry out easily!

 

Filling triangles with mixed nuts, sugar and cinnamon

 

 

After Baking .. Looking delicious!

 

 

After dipping in the cold syrup ..easy ha! and yummy too!
