Soup Soup!

I haven't posted in a while because I cannot find the charger for my camera....it was there one minute and gone the next. I've reconstructed a shirt, finished the scarf (yey!), have come up with an present for xmas (yes, it's early) for my relatives, made soup, and probably more. With so many things done, hopefully I will find the charger so you guys can see what I'm doing!

I made chicken dumpling soup yesterday...I was told it was good...so here's the recipe

2 Chicken Breasts
8 c. water
7 Boullion Cubes
2-3 Carrots
2-3 Stalks of Celery
1 Onion
2 Cloves Garlic
3-4 T. Parsley
Dumplings

Boil the chicken until done...probably about 20-30 minutes. Cut up into pieces and put in pot. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for about 20 minutes. I don't have exact measurements because I just threw it together. As a rule of thumb, I use the same amount of both celery and carrots. I will include the recipe for dumplings, as I actually made them from leftover pierogie dough, next time I post.

For us veggies:

4 C. water
3 vegetarian vegetable boullion cubes
1/2 onion
1 celery stalk
1 carrot
1 garlic clove
1-2 T. Parsley
1/4 c. broccoli
1/2 c. noodles
salt to taste

Combine all ingrediants and simmer for 20 minutes or so and done!

For either of these recipes, you can use fresh or frozen veggies, leftovers (that's what the broccoli was). Use different veggies...whatever you have lying around. Super good, super easy :) Happy Crafting!

Free pattern for Simple Tapered Leg Warmers

I've been recently frustrated with my crochet and needed an quick, easy pattern to get rid of some of my stash.  So I found a pair of leg warmers... Great!  Except my gauge was totally off because I almost always refuse to check it since it takes so much time and bothers me since i have to pull extra out of my skein....long story short....I ended up creating my own pattern.  Note: These are meant to be more fitted, and you may have to adjust the size. **This pattern is for personal use only, and it took me several hours to create.  Please do not sell this pattern or the final product.  Thanks! These leg warmers are a little tapered at the bottom because I wanted to make sure they didn't just come off or make their way under my heel.  The pattern is worked in rounds and my calves are about 14".  Ch 3 and Ch 2 count as a dc or hdc, EXCEPT for the last round. Yarn: WW- I used Red Heart Hooks: H & I Abbreviations: - st- stitch - ch- chain - dc- double crochet
