Workspace Wednesday - current faves August 2020




It's been a while since I last shared my current faves. :) First up is my recipe planner. With all the stay-at-home cooking I have been doing, the recipe planner has been filling up really nicely. Every time I add a new recipe page, I flip through the rest of the pages to see how far I've come in my cooking journey and I'm really proud of myself. :)

Workspace Wednesday - current faves August 2020

Of course, you all know that my latest obsession is sourdough. Thank goodness I have a cousin who started the journey much earlier than me and she can understand my obsession with anything sourdough. Earlier this week, I texted her that I needed a bread intervention because my freezer has been filled with my sourdough experiments (The waiting time is so long so I always make 2 loaves - one to eat and the other to freeze), And it's only been 5 weeks since I baked my first 2 loaves of sourdough bread. *LOL* 

Yeah, when I am passionate about something, I go all out. Pictured is this week's first go at a sandwich loaf. And you know how I am about NOT wasting anything right? I don't actually have any sourdough discard, I use everything. If I have extra fed starter, I will scour the web to find recipes to use that up. Oh yes, sourdough pancakes are nephew #1's current fave snack.


As for art supplies, I've been really into portrait drawing with my Derwent pastel pencils. I love how blendable they are and how quickly they can be used to achieve a realistic portrait. My goal is to draw my family members and set up a gallery wall in the living room. :)


Speaking of current faves, I must also include art supplies for the face...well more specifically for the eyes..since the whole mask-wearing need is putting more emphasis on the eyes. *winks* These Natasha Denona palettes are my current faves. Never mind that I only wear makeup like 1 day a week or occasionally 2, I always find myself gravitating to these 2 palettes because I'm such a colour junkie.

There you have it...my current faves. What about you?

That bread looks so yummy!!! Brookie is obsessed with makeup too! We even had to buy her a vanity for her room, because she had too much stuff for the bathroom she shares with Adam! LOL!!!

LOVE this post! It's so fun to see your current favorites and see what you've been up to recently. Your bread looks amazing! I am so scared of anything with yeast, and here you are a professional bread maker after so few weeks. And holy cow, your portraits are stunning! Such fabulous likenesses! Cannot wait to see your completed gallery wall. Love your makeup palettes, too. I am so lazy these days.... hardly ever wear makeup anymore. :)

I can't wait to see the rest of your family members' portraits! I've been baking up a storm. I really should make a 'Quarantine Cooking' layout...

Your sourdough bread is so yummy looking. I agree that eye makeup is vital in these mask-wearing days. Lipstick smudges on the inside of my mask are disgusting. Thanks for sharing your life with blogland.
