Huh, just realized that it has almost been a year since my last post. That's quite sad because there has been so many creative things to share that are unshared. Well, probably shared them on Pinterest. Ok, I know I pinned a bunch of things on pinterest.

Then I was thinking about doing something fun with the new 2015 Pantone color of the year and it brought me back to my blog where I realized my last post had to do with the 2014 Pantone color of the year.

But what brought me to my blog was a photo I took of a bowl of soup from a recipe I whipped up for lunch today. Super easy and yummy. I've been making a batch of veggie soup since the beginning of the year to have a healthy low Weight Watcher's point option for my noon meal.

Here is my scientific recipe:

Thai Chicken Vegatable Soup Recipe

Swanson's Thai Ginger Broth—32 oz. or so
Frozen Chicken Breast (I used 2 in the batch of soup)
Birds's Eye Stir Fry Thai vegetables frozen including seasoning packet (half bag)
Ka-me Stir Fry Noodles (half-bag)
Trader Joe's Asian Seasoning Dry mix

Just boil the chicken in the broth (I boiled the whole bag of frozen chicken breasts and saved the other 4 breasts for later.)

Removed the cooked chicken, added frozen veggies and seasoning until simmer.  Added back 2 chicken breasts shredded into pieces and the noodles and heated through. Wha-lah! About 5 pts. per large bowl!

Add some hot pepper if you like your Thai Soup Spicy! Enjoy!

I will try to enter more random creativity this year. Even if it's just a blurb. Promise.

I like eating with chop sticks! Slows me down and I feel pretty cool!

Trying to work the Pantone Color of the Year into my design or home some how. I love the color. Just not sure the other 5 men I live with (hubby + 4 boys) would appreciate me splashing the color all over our home.

Instead, I stopped and played with some digital creativity on one of my favorite photos of a succulent plant. Transitions with the amount and use of the color. I really like the results!

Looking forward to getting my hands dirty once all of this snow melts in Minnesota!

Seriously. 'Nuf Said!

I have so many new random creative things to post. I know I have neglected this little part of my world and I am so sorry. Today I had to pause and do a personal creative project on a quote by Christian Larsen that I received today in my email from Audrie and Jim Lanford via their Inspirational Quote of the Day.  I'd link to Christian Larsen, but when I googled the name, there are so many, I'm not sure which one it is. Someone I would like to meet for sure.

This quote really struck me! Especially the first sentence, Be so strong that.....  I think of my self as a strong person. But even this week something shook me a bit and thank God for my husband who reminded me to have grace in the situation. This quote is right up that alley and I need to keep it on my heart.

Here is the creative layout I worked up with a photo I took recently at my younger sons football game near the Forest Lake airstrip. I love that it is a tandom jump. Clearly, their was extra support for this big leap!

My prayer is that I might reflect the image this quote portrays!

Enjoy!
