A stuffed artichoke is a thing of beauty!

I'm not kidding, it is just purdy. I pried open the leaves and stuffed them with lemon-pepper panko crumbs mixed with romano cheese. Then, I drizzled them with olive oil and cooked them in the pressure cooker with lemon water for 8 minutes. Next time I'll let them go to 9 minutes as I like them a little softer.

These are absolutely cravable, and I had 2 for dinner last night. That's all, just stuffed artichokes. So yummy.

I can't let Christmas go!

Yes, it's true, I am still making Christmas cards. What can I say, I just can't let it go yet.

These were scraplifted from an image I saw on Pinterest, but I cannot remember the original creator's name. Aren't these reindeer in sweaters the cutest?

I have been playing with my new Inktense pencils, and I've got to say they are the most fun I've had coloring so far. It reminds me a little of the magic coloring/painting books we had as kids that basically came to life after applying water.

I may add some stray snow flakes to these before I call them completely done.
