2 (4-ounce) links chicken or turkey sausage, cut into (1/2-inch) slices
1 zucchini, quartered and cut into (1/2-inch) slices (about 2 cups)
3 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
6 cups chopped trimmed kale (about 1/2 pound)
1/2 cup water
(16-ounce) cans cannellini beans or other white beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

This is the pattern over the already cut out material...I've already thought of how to make it better. It's being hand sewn in front of the tv :)

My latest idea




I want to make stuffed animals! I saw some really great ones designed by this lady.


But there are patterns too.
Do you think trying to make a stuffed animal will be hard?

Snow - finally


Isn't this fun!?!

So, I thought this would be a new way to communicate more often with each other! I can post comments, photos and links to different websites. Keep checking back for updates!
