Daring to Zen with the Dala...

I wasn't really sure about this... It was only my second zendala and the template looked pretty tough...
But as soon as I put down the first connecting line cresent moon wanted to land and I just held the pen while it went it's own way...

I printed on regular printer paper... Not doing that again... Microns do not like it - it was skipping and going downright invisible at times...

But it turned out allright after all...

Tangles used:


While I was tangling away on this, my son (6) was looking at it and decided he wanted to make one too... Luckily I couldn't figure out how to just print one of the templates on the page, so he got the tile-size one and I got him going with very simple linework...


For the bottom spaces I suggested dots and he turned them into smilyfaces and thought he was extremly clever! It's so cute...
He finished off with a little post-it Minecraft head for his chin... Yeah... I didn't get that either... But he was half asleep...

Maybe I have a little future tangler here...



Tangles: Cadent and Buttercup



Thank you for all your lovely comments!

Well worth the wait...

it's a string thing
That's new to me



Apple Pie
- The worlds quickest and easiest pie... Ever...
180 celcius - 30 min

100 g butter
125 g sugar
100 g flour
1 tsp bakingpowder
1 egg

While melting the butter mix everything in a bowl. Mix in the butter.
Pour the batter into a pie pan.
Now fill it with whatever your kitchen holds of tasty stuff... Berries, fruit, chocolate, nuts... Just go nuts...

The batter will rise so there's no need to push the filling down, just lay it on top of the batter. Into the oven it goes and watch the tasty magic happen...

Today I added a little coconut flour and chopped almonds to the batter. Not the last time!

 Now while your mouth is watering for all of 30 min waiting for pie you could do like I did and... Tangle of course!
