New and Bright

Happy Tuesday everyone. Let me start off with thanking my new follows, I really appreciate your support. It has been a while since I updated this blog, and for a good reason. My daughter was home with a cold the whole last week and now is back to school but my oldest decided to catch the same cold. I have been very busy sewing new purses and very excited and happy how they came out. Very bright colors, just great for the winter and spring.

Last Friday was an exciting morning for me; I got in the mail a yard of fabric from my friend that she has hand printed specially for this wonderful purple cashmere sweater that we picked up a week before. The purse came out amazing, for more images please visit my store on Etsy www.rulatwal.etsy.com



I have been baking, I make this wonderful 7 grain whole wheat bread and today this amazing banana bread. I found the recipe online and would love to share it with you:



3 or 4 ripe bananas
1/3 cup butter
1 cup sugar (I mixed some brown sugar with it)
1 egg beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
a pinch of salt
1 1/5 cups flour
Glaze:
1/3 cup powder sugar
1 tbsp water

Mash the bananas and add all ingredients, you don't even need a mixer, add flower last and don't over beat it. Butter a bread pan (I used parchment paper) and bake for one hour in 350 degree oven. Pour the glaze on top of the bread while still hot.

Here is a picture of the bread I made a few days ago:
