Ahhhh Chamomile. The parks are smelling …..or rather basking in the smell of Chamomile these days. I just love it. Makes me want to run home and make a cup of tea! Chamomile is the national flower of Russia!! A wise choice for the Anastasia worshippers. Chamomile is best known as a tea but has […]

Cheesecake….and Paul Newman.
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 29th, 2010
Michael was coming over for dinner…….and why I keep making the Cheesecake Man …..Cheesecake I’ll never know. But I am beginning to wonder! It’s his favorite, but he has only ever praised my carrot cake. You’d think I would pick up on this but I keep trying. Hence, I spotted a neat idea in the […]
Pasta Salad
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 28th, 2010
Yes, it’s summertime all right and nothing like making a fresh pasta salad. I should call this Greek Pasta salad or something fancy but personally I will call it kitchen sink salad. It was not that I was cleaning out the fridge or anything like that, it was that we just kept adding…….so many good […]
Shopping………
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 28th, 2010
I am not a shopper. I admit it. I don’t find anything relaxing about it. Fabric stores on the other hand, and there aren’t very many left that you can spend hours drooling in, are a weakness. But have you seen this ad? My kind of way to shop. In, out and back on the […]
Meditations for the Oceans
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 23rd, 2010
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1-BazjLRKI&feature=related Though this was for the Solstice on Monday, not a bad idea to continue until our oceans are clean. Yes, it might be a very long time but we owe it to them. May your footprint be ever so light.
Strawberry Poppy Seed Muffins
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 23rd, 2010
I can’t even remember who I got this recipe from, but it has been taped to my kitchen cupboard for about 4 months. You’d have thought I would have been bored just looking at it, but my long row of kitchen cabinets makes it kinda like looking at all my recipes in the works. Quite […]
Espresso Chocolate Chip Cookies …..ohhh la la!
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 18th, 2010
Jessie and Happy wanted me to make some treats for the dog park mommies so I rose to the occasion this morning after finding this Puuuurfect Park recipe. With dogs bouncing all around I wanted to give Emma’s Mom, Bonnie’s Mom, Ozzie’s Mom, Dakota’s Mom and Omar’s Mom a nice thank you for all the […]
Fabmo New Look Pattern #6841
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 16th, 2010
Was thinking it’s time to get out those Fabmo samples and get some bags made for summer. I have had my eye on this one bag to try for a while and I finally got a free minute…..rather a few hours to crank this one out. My dog Jessie had other ideas when the pattern […]

Penne Pasta and Pear Salad
Posted by Chanteuse Designs on June 14th, 2010
Many years ago I had a phenomenal meal at a restaurant in South Park. Though the restaurant is long gone, ever since that one incredible Pasta and Pear dish, I have loved using blue cheese and pears in my pasta dishes. One in particular. Fresh sage too if you have it! I found this recipe […]
