After reading the book Hattie Big Sky I have been uber inspired to use what I have in my pantry and freezer and add only fresh veggies, milk and eggs. My first day of this I whipped up a really delicious baked pasta dish. The tall one asked where I found the recipe! Ha – invented out of ingredients I had on hand. I also made home made biscuits. They didn’t really rise and didn’t look that great but they tasted fantastic. For desert I made a baked cream of wheat pudding that received rave reviews from all! I love being limited – it really makes me so creative. I am also now working on raised bed planter boxes to grow veggies – thanks Hattie Big Sky for the inspiration!

This weekend I was invited to a friends lovely garden party and she let me contribute by whipping up mini carrot cakes. They were so good and gone so quickly. My daughter (4) loved using the Cuisinart to chop the carrots. I used a simple recipe which I’ll share here: Mini Carrot Cupcakes Recipe. To make the carrot top greens I made green fondant and cut them on my machine using the Cricut Cake for the shape I used the Freshly Picked Cartridge.
