Sewing, cooking, and biking

I love our friends and our church. It is the best place. It has become somewhat of a tradition to have baby showers for the expectant moms in our church. However, there have been so many pregnancy it has been tough to keep up. I love to make homemade gifts for baby showers and lately it has been very simple quilts. Nothing like these or these. I am not as skilled or fancy as them. These days mine are looking more like this

Isn't the ric rac cute. Got the idea from this lovely lady.

This little one is for Sonya's little one. It took me long enough to make it. He may have out grown it by now:)

Pork Chops and Scalloped Potatoes
I have made this dish quite a bit lately. It is super easy and loved by all. I got the recipe from allrecipes.com, it was submitted by jamon0126, thanks jamon0126!!
First melt 1T of butter in sauce pan. Add salt, pepper, flour and 1T of minced garlic(I add about twice the amount of garlic). Cook on medium low for 2 minutes. Gradually add chicken broth, cook and stir until mixture boils and mixture is smooth(not lumpy).

Place 4 cups of sliced potatoes in a greased 9x13 dish. Top with 1/2 cup of cilantro, cracked pepper, and butter/flour mixture.

Brown pork chops in 1T butter and 1T of garlic

Place browned chops on top of potatoes and cilantro.

Cover and bake in 350 oven for 1 hour. Uncover and cook for 20 minutes.
Serve with a yummy summer salad.

Biking
We went to the bike trail again this weekend. We found this huge open field to stop and eat lunch and run and play. Good times with the family.
