Type

Sarah and Annette recently posted about the What is Your Type? I was curious and so I took the quiz.

I am....Rational, Understated, Traditional, Disciplined. My type is Perpetua Titling Light. It IS me! I love it. Classic and clean.

Get Your Martha On...shout out

I love the blog Get Your Martha On. She is very talented and witty. I find myself giggling while reading her blog posts. I adore her most recent post. She has created a mantel based on a picture she saw in Pottery Barn. I think I may be emulating this one for spring. I love the silver and white candles, vintage books and a bird's nest offering a hint of spring. Perfect!



She even shows you how to make large glass pillar candle holders inexpensively. It makes me happy.

the pottery barn

I always love Pottery Barn, but I like it even more when I see something that I think I can make for significantly cheaper. So many things that make my heart flutter....

Spicy Sweet Pork

Yesterday, I made some pork the hubby LOVED. I just added a bit of this, a bit of that. The pork turned out delicious. It was sweet but had a kick to it. This is a keeper.

• 1 1/2 - 2 lb pork loin roast
• 1 c. apple juice
• 1/2 c. Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tsp fresh ground pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp garlic paste (found in produce section)
• 1 T fresh parsley finely chopped
• 1 medium sweet yellow onion sliced

Place pork loin in crock pot. Cover the pork loin with sliced onions. Mix the remain ingredients together in a separate bowl. Pour over the pork loin roast. Roast in crock pot for 3-4 hours on high or 6-7 hours on low. Shred or slice pork.

a great how to book

Love this book, Weekend Sewing. I am thinking about starting a little project. I want to start a fabric collection. Then I can do one of these little projects when I have a lazy weekend.

Perfect...

I love A Country Farmhouse. I look at it and it makes me happy. I was especially excited to see this...
I love the white, silver and wood on the shelves. I like that it is a little unorganized. I am now wanting the hubby to make me these kitchen shelves because I am running out of cupboard space. So perfect!!!

Coming soon...

I saw these gorgeous pedestal plates and cupcake platters from Rosanna. I am thinking I need a few more white cake platters. Very pretty.
