Rainy Day Woman

It's been a rainy week and I'm loving it! Rain makes me happy the way sunshine makes most people happy...hehehe

So the whole KCWC (Kid's Clothes Week Challenge) passed by without me making a single item for my girls. Mostly because they've been under the weather and the shop is doing great, which means I spend all my free time hookin' away.

I have been meaning to make these pants since the amazing Rae posted the pattern OVER A MONTH AGO. So my challenge to myself is to make the pants this week. This will be my first pair of pants, so wish me luck!

Sports Fan Dresses

I used The Warhol Dress *free pattern* by Dana at made to make these two dresses for Noelle. She calls them "jajamas", wore them all day gleefully and wanted to wear them to bed! I'd say they were a hit.

Be the Reds! (Korea World Cup tshirt)

Go Blue.

Banana Streusel Muffies

N calls muffins "muffies". Other foods she enjoys are "tononoes" (tomatoes), "cawwots", "coocumbas" and "po-tay-tos". Oh, and "cwackas".

Banana Streusel Muffies

Muffie
1.5 c. all-purpose flour
3/4 c. white sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 c. milk
1/3 c. oil
1 egg
2 bananas, mashed

Streusel
3 tbl. flour
1/4 c. sugar
3/4 tsp. cinnamon
2 tbl. butter

Whisk together the dry ingredients in large bowl until combined. In a measuring cup mix together oil, milk and egg with a fork until well mixed. Stir mashed bananas into wet ingredients until well combined, then pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Mix until just combined (about 40 strokes is my rule for muffins and brownies).

Work streusel ingredients with fingers until crumbly.

Fill muffin cups to the top, then sprinkle with streusel mixture. Bake at 375 for about 20 minutes. Yield: 8 muffins.

Enjoy!
