Episode 4: 2017 Holidays Recap

The Holidays have come and gone! 

In this episode we recap some of the things we made around the holidays. 

HOLIDAY DRINKS!

Shan challenged me to find a "fun, holiday cocktail" to have while we were decorating the house and watching Christmas movies.  I found FIVE!  (recipe's linked above each)

The Pomegranate Rosemary Spritzer

Winter Sangria

Harvest Sparkle

and our ABSOLUTE favorite,

White Christmas Mojito

Our Attic Now Has (Half A) Floor

This is what the uncovered half looks like (and what the now-covered side looked like) 

And now our Christmas decor has a safe place to live!

Shannon's Redbirds

- We found these metal birds at Christmas Village 2016
- add spraypaint, boxwood wreaths, and ribbon

We're Making Brunch!
Here's the recipe we used,
BACON & EGG STUFFED SWEET POTATO from FitMenCook
Check out that site and his app... it's one of my favorite places to get recipes!

Let's get started! 

Here's the microphone setup / cooking workstation

Once the bacon and potatoes are cooked, we're ready for assembly! Man, we really get messy when we cook.  #allthespices 

Lila was VERY interested in all the bacon-y smells

#basicbacon

Add some eggs

And cheese, of course... bake for a while... and then...

I may have gotten a little avocado happy, but there's really no way to have TOO MUCH avocado

Here is our finished post!

This is such a fun piece! You can keep it on your porch and add a hanging piece for each season!

Here it is as a part of our Fall porch decor. We picked up the truck at At Home. It was actually a ground stake piece, and I removed the stake from it to put on the pole.

Shan did such an amazing job on our porch this year! I just love it!

Since we're showing off our Fall decor, I wanted to also show the fun thing Shan did with our mailbox:

And, of course, our original post... with the sad little hook, and since I didn't do anything to treat the wood, you can see that it's all sorts of falling apart.

Episode 1: Falling For Mead

Welcome to the blog for Look What We Made! The place to go for recipes and photos for what we talk about on the podcast!  

This is the blog entry for Episode 1, "Falling For Mead"

Click here for the recipe that we used.

This recipe is super simple.  Melt your honey into some water.  Throw all the stuff in your jug.  Let sit for at least 4 weeks.  Then drink delicious Mead. 

Here are all of the ingredients before we put everything together:

Here is the mead all cooked up and ready to go!  Now... we wait... 

Here is the mead about 1 week later, balloon all full of CO2 and bubbling away.  

We'll do another episode once it's all finished, we filter it out, and we'll do a taste test! 

Happy fall!  See y'all next time!!
