Katie Eats Lunch

Thursday, August 9, 2012 Category : 0

There is nothing I hate more than making my lunch every day. This week I have been making this wrap. It is super easy and tasty.

I start off with a whole grain tortilla. I then spread a thin layer of light cream cheese on it.


Next comes the turkey...


And the spinach and onions...


And I like topping it off with a little bit of barbecue sauce!


Now just roll that bad boy up! To keep mine tight until lunchtime I wrap mine tightly in cling wrap, although it is sometimes a trick getting it OUT of the wrap. There are a bunch of ways you can change this. I imagine corn and tomatoes would be quite good in there as well, but you can only shove so much food into a wrap.


An exercise in patience

I do not know how to embroider. Starting a post like that is a good sign, right?

I do not know how to embroider, so I thought I'd try anyway. There are a few things I want for Jak's walls and I know I wanted some sugar skull patterns in the mix so I figured I'd attempt to do a little embroidery.

It turned out alright.



At one point in time, I did accidentally stab the needle all the way to my knuckle. That was quite painful.

It's quite small, just barely 3.5". I didn't want to start out too large. It looks cute hanging on the wall with my random assortment of things I have. Now if only I could find more things I want for Jak's room.

Ow.

So last night I started getting a really sharp pain in my right wrist that was so bad it kept me up until 4am and I didn't go in to work today. I'm in a weird transitional spot in my life where I don't have health insurance so I tried to get into the free clinic and they weren't taking walk-ins and it was just a big pile of poop. My wrist still kind of hurts, but I'm going to go to work tomorrow.

So long story short I haven't touched a craft item all day. But here is a picture of a couple stickers that I got at Hobby Lobby Tuesday night. 


Our Hobby Lobby is currently being renovated so the aisles are all screwed up and I had my boyfriend's 2-year-old son with me so I didn't get much because I was trying to get out. I got these stickers, a sheet of dinosaur stickers (that Jak picked out) and a couple packs of earring findings.

So I think this week I will be showing the quilt I've just started working on. Be aware that I am a TOTAL amateur. I do stuff wrong, I know this. But what I do works for me. That is the only thing I have planned for now. I'm still getting used to taking instructional pictures.

Well that's about all for tonight. Hopefully I have wrist improvement over night. Thanks for stopping by!
