    14th century hood for a friend – 5th rose finished! :)

    2016/11/22

    Wooohooo! I am very glad to say that I just finished another embroidered rose for my friends 14th century hood project! Recently I was quite busy with other projects – like sewing a hood for our beautiful Queen Oda and painting a shield for my husband for the Meridian Crown Tournament – but whenever I found some idle time inbetween, I continued working on the roses for my friends 14th century hood. And it finally paid off – though it seemed to take forever, the 5th rose  is finally finished too!

    White 14th century XL hood for a friends Pelican elevation – embroidery .4 – how I created the embroidered Pelican patches

    2015/10/15

    With this posting, after all the previous postings about the 14th century XL hood project for my friends Pelican elevation, I am finally reaching the last and major part of the embroidery for this hood project: …the pelican patches! In my last posting I already showed you the finished knight belt patches for the 14th century hood for my friends Pelican elevation. And as nice as the knight belt patches already looked like at this stage of the project, they all still looked quite empty, didn’t they – but no for long, that’s for sure… 😀

    2015/10/10

    And finally, after part #1 & part #2 of “how I created the embroidered knight belt patches”, I am getting to the 3rd and last part of the knight belt patches creation process. Yes, today I am going to show you how I created the embroidered belt buckles with a certain special effect. An effect which makes the belt buckles look a little bit more like real ones. 😀

  • positive review  Racaire makes wonderful things, she even takes on the Herculean task of dressing ME up pretty and makes it look easy. Anyone who has seen me at an event the past three or four years has seen her work. Not only is it beautifully made, it's durable enough to wear for heavy combat! Win-win!

I promised a friend who does awesome meals in the I promised a friend who does awesome meals in the instapot to also show more of my cooking to repay her kindness. 

Today I take you through my process of making one of my favs - Rindsrouladen (beef-rouladen). Sorry for not taking more pics but it can get quite messy with the mustard.

So, I got me a lovely piece of beef that was labeled for stew and showed a nice big coherent piece. It was actually one of the cheapest cuts at the meet counter and I normally cut away all the excess and fat and put it through the meet grinder for medium rare burgers or meet balls. From this piece I cut as many rather thin slices as possible and put the rest through the meet grinder. Btw. if you don't have a meet grinder, you can also cut the rest of the beef into thin slices and make a nice beef stir fry.

So, now to the Rouladen - I put some mustard on the beef slice, pepper it, put some pickle slices on it, when I am in the mood I also add carrot sticks in the middle but not today. Then I roll them up and as I always forget to get toothpicks, I use some cord to bind them so the layers stay in place. I put my instapot on saute/high, add some fat and when it is hot, I brown the Rouladen on all sides. If you get some liquid while you are browning it, you can carefully remove the inner pot and pour it into a bowl for later use and continue browning.

When the browning is done, I remove the Rouladen and add carrots and onions and brown them. When they have a nice shine I add about 2 cups of liquid (in this case the meet juice from my last piece of beef I cut in the instapot and saved in a reused Barilla jar - no extra seasoning as this "juice" has plenty in it). If I have some unused pickle slices left, I normally chop them up and add them to the pot. Then I add my OXO silicon ring and arrange the Rouladen on it. I put my instapot on 25 min/pressure cook/normal or low setting (Natural release).

To serve I take out the Rouladen, remove the silicon ring and get to the natural sauce with carrots and onion. I normally start my rice as soon as I start the pressure cooking.

I am so excited! Donated my super long hair and my I am so excited! Donated my super long hair and my awesome friend @hellomolly___ gave me an amazing haircut and a striking blue-emerald dye job! I can't get enough of my new haircut and hair color and it is so much less weight now that more than half of my hair is gone!
💙💚💙

I already had a similar hairstyle about 20 years ago - it will be awesome when the temperatures get up again. A perfect hairstyle for me for the summer in the Florida panhandle! And as a bonus I feel like she turned back my inner clock by at least 15years - I feel so much younger! Feel like going out and getting me a blue and emerald green lipstick! Lol

Well, it was time for some change but not without Well, it was time for some change but not without making sure to save some hair for the wig making program that makes wigs for kids with cancer.
Now I feel better in so many ways - that's quite some weight off my head, will make life so much easier and help a kid with cancer to feel better thanks to my fabulous neighbor @hellomolly___ ! ❤️
First step is to save the hair more is still to come!
